			:: WIkipedia's guidelines would need a lot of adapting, since they have a lot of additional requirements that don't really apply to us. For example, no strong "opinions" on things, where as I think it's fine to say if something doesn't seem to work very well, or feels poorly made, etc.

			:: I did once start a very basic and rough page on [[Help:Rules]], with the idea of actually encouraging groups, software authors, and companies, to edit the wiki so long as what they added was "reasonably objective and related to Kodi", and that any issues would be judged from case to case. Editor traffic is low enough to keep an eye on things like that.

			:: Still, I'll try to add the applicable parts from this page/wikipedia to the rules page and make sure it is linked from the other help pages. Over all, this is a good idea to have. -- [[User:Ned Scott\|Ned Scott]] ([[User talk:Ned Scott\|talk]]) 16:46, 23 June 2015 (EDT)
