Introduction

While The Codex allows many profiles from many verses official and nonofficial (check Rules for Fanon Profiles for further info on nonofficial) there are still profiles and verses not allowed on this wiki. The reasons are as followed.

Profiles Allowed

Profiles are allowed to be made on this wiki if they are:

  • Officially published or licensed works that are of fiction.
  • Able to be viewed, read, or played online, and has an official continuity.
  • Any serialized works of fiction.
  • Profiles that follow Rules for Fanon Profiles.

Examples: The Angry Video Game Nerd, Smosh, Filthy Frank, A Pretty COAL Adventure

Profiles Not Allowed

Profiles are allowed to be made on this wiki if they are:

  • Works of nonfiction are not allowed unless they are animals, weapons, or theoretical events (I.E. a profile for a Supernova) or profiles based off real people who are significant in some way (Officially requires faction profiles for real people such as Adolf Hitler and his Third Reich).
  • Verses that are straight up hentai/pornography aren't allowed, despite our official maturity rating rules, these verses usually require NSFW scans, which are not allowed by fandom's rules.[1]
  • Series that are primarily made on sites such as deviantart are not allowed for profiles.
  • Profiles hosting one-shots for original characters or stories are not allowed.
  • Series where the story is very incoherent and lacks any real way to truly measure anything, this can be normally seen in series written by powerscalers attempting to make their verse as powerful as possible but in the process of creating extremely incoherent writing.

Examples: Suggsverse, Vtubers (Specifically their youtube channels, official series with them or works is allowed), Undertale AUs, One-Shot Fanfictions, Hentai Works

Composite Profiles

Initially, we allowed composite profiles of all kinds back when the wiki was run differnetly, but now that our primary purpose is an indexing wiki, composite profiles are for the most part, banned. Though there are differing levels of "composite" that we allow and don't allow.

Allowed Composite Profiles

Composite profiles that are fully allowed.

Species profiles are a great example of this, as the profile is essentially compositing a species together into one profile.

An example of a non-species profile would be one such as Pucca, which due to her existence as a comedy cartoon series, lacks any real cohesive continuity aside from an official reboot. Thus any official media with Pucca (aside from the reboot) would be on her profile.

Scientific ideas such as "Composite Human" or "Combined Human" would also be allowed in some sense as they are theoretical ideas discussed.

Disallowed Composite Profiles

Composite profiles that aren't allowed anymore are composite profiles that are entirely fanon. For example, there cannot be a "Son Goku (Composite)" page that merges all of his versions together, or a "Samus Aran (Composite)" page that merges all of her suits into one.
