StreetCatWiki's Guidelines

StreetCatWiki is meant to be a lighthearted environment, providing a place to learn more about the cats in more popular feeders and about the App of Hello Street Cat itself. These guidelines and rules are here to keep the peace and have this site stay civil and fun.

When Making a New Page for a Cat

When the community discovers a possible new cat, please check the other already identified cats in List of Cats and compare the new cat with the others. If the cat appears to be actually new, please take a screenshot of the cat's back and face, and then the community can agree upon a name. If you are having problems adding a cat or don't understand how to, consider joining the Discord server of the DeMiaowa's Re-stream to submit the cat spotted together with its back and front picture in #Cat-Lore.

Rules

  • The cat is required to have a back and facial photo. Do not make a page about a cat that just peeked into the feeder once.
  • The name can NOT be of something offensive, derogatory, or could cause controversy. The name will be changed to another name by the community if this happens. Use common sense.
  • If something bad happened to the cat, add the template Template:Warning1 at the beginning of the page and list what bad things happened (e.g. mistreatment). Do NOT add graphic information to the article, only include a watered-down summary.

Recommended

  • Have the time be in UTC+8 or China Standard Time (CST), this is the time of the feeder, and appears on DeMiaowa's Re-stream in the bottom left.
  • Name the cat after their behavior or appearance.
  • Please check your page for spelling mistakes and grammar. As much as this is a fun fan-made encyclopedia about cats, we do want to have our articles look decent.
  • If the cat is from the Happy Canteen (also known as Mr. Fresh's Feeder), please put the cat into Unlisted Cats in List of Cats. This means the cat isn't well recognized in the community, if the cat visits a few more times afterwards, it will be moved up into The Happy Canteen Feeder Cats.
