Publication rules for Wikivibe authors

1. What this document covers

These rules apply to everything authors publish through Wikivibe: articles and blog posts in the author editor, comments and discussion under materials.

By submitting a draft for review you confirm that you have the right to publish the material and that you accept the rules below.

2. Original practical experience and sources

• Write about what you actually built, tested or investigated, and say clearly which part is your own practice.
• When the text uses numbers, releases, benchmarks or other external claims, add sources so a reader can verify them.
• Do not present someone else’s experience, measurement or conclusion as your own.

3. AI-assisted writing is allowed

• You may use AI tools while researching, drafting or editing, and you do not have to hide that they were used.
• You remain responsible for facts, sources, links and the final text, including anything the tool invented.
• Bulk machine-generated text, unverified generated instructions and auto-translated dumps are not accepted.

4. No unverified reposts and no plagiarism

• Do not publish full copies of other articles, automatic scrapes or feed dumps.
• Quote and translate with attribution and add your own practical contribution instead of a retelling.
• Republishing your own material is allowed when it is yours and the text is adapted for Wikivibe readers.

5. Sponsored content and conflicts of interest

• Disclose paid placements, partnerships, affiliate links, employment and any other interest in a product you review.
• Disclosure goes into the article itself, not only into a message to the editors.
• Hidden advertising and undisclosed promotion are not published.

6. Personal data, secrets and safety

• Do not publish other people’s personal data, private contacts or correspondence without consent.
• Do not publish credentials, tokens, API keys, private configuration or internal documents.
• Do not publish instructions that are only useful for attacking third-party systems.

7. Moderation and editorial decisions

• Every submission is read by a reviewer before publication. Submissions are not published automatically.
• A reviewer can request changes, ask for sources, reject a submission or hide and unpublish a published article.
• Review checks originality, sources, clarity and compliance with these rules. It is not a line-by-line fact check and it does not make the material an official statement.
• Publication is not guaranteed, and we do not promise a review or publication deadline.

8. Corrections and updates

• If you find an error, report it through the contact below: we correct the article and keep the change visible when it changes the meaning.
• Authors can request a correction, an update or the removal of their own published article.
• If a tool or platform changes, an outdated article is updated instead of being left as current instructions.

9. What authors get

• Editorial feedback on the material and a public author page listing everything you published.
• Exposure in the catalog, in the feeds and in the discussion where readers of the same stack respond.
• Publication does not guarantee clients, job offers, traffic, audience growth or income.

10. Privacy of the author identity

• A published article shows your public display name and avatar next to the text.
• Your numeric messaging identifier is never published.
• Draft content stays private until a reviewer approves it.
