Admin Forum:Someone one my wiki uses horrible grammar, and I want them to stop without banning them.

On my wiki, someone is making fanfictions with horrible grammar and spelling. It gets really hard to skim through their work and fix it. I want my wiki to have good content, but I don't want to ban this guy for just bad grammar. I left him a message, but he didn't respond. What do I do? MissingNo. here!

 * I would advise talking to him in a more stricter tone, warning him that he must improve his grammar or he will get a block. That should work. If he doesn't follow that, then I know you'll be against this, but I would then start off by giving him a block of maybe 1-3 days, and if he still continues, maybe a block of 2 weeks, and slowly work your way up from there.

 * What is the main reason that you think you need to fix grammar in someone else's fan fiction? What I would do is make a template with a notice saying something like: "The grammar and spelling in this article is not reflective of the standards of this wiki." You could also set up a policy to move poor quality fan fiction to a user sub-page.
 * From my experience, writers with bad grammar will only rarely improve because it isn't their priority. If it was, they wouldn't be so bad in the first place. Sometimes it's better just to move junk to user sub-pages and forget about it. Fixing bad grammar and spelling can easily become a thankless full-time job. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 27 Mar 2012 12:48 PM Pacific
