The Kingdom Hearts Wiki's '''IRC''' channel is the wikis main mode of socializing. It is used for chit-chat and is also a different and quicker way to notify a staff about a problem with the wiki.
The Kingdom Hearts Wiki has a '''[[wikipedia:Discord (software)|Discord]] server''' to socialize with others. It serves as a friendly place for the community to coordinate efforts offsite, and to socialize with other Kingdom Hearts fans!
 
==Topic==
The topic range for the KHWiki channel is very broad. The channel is not restricted to Kingdom Hearts talk. Discussions can relate to anything from one's favorite character, to a more off-topic subject like how one's day has been.


==Rules==
==Rules==
#'''Play nice with others''' -  The channel will not be used to insult others or put people down. If you continue to insult someone or flame the channel with nonsense, you will be banned.
#'''Be kind''' -  Please be nice to everyone. If someone is being disruptive, rude, or unfair, report them to the staff.
#'''Caution:Spoilers are expected''' - We cannot control what people type, so spoilers are to be expected. If someone spoils a certain part of a game, you can prevent them from saying anything else by using the ignore function.
#'''Don't engage in offensive behavior''' - This means don't attack anyone for any reason. Attacks based on religion, political affiliation, gender, age, race, or sexual orientation are strictly prohibited.
#'''The IRC uses the wiki's native tongue''' - Please use proper English. 133t Sp33k is not something we want to read.
#'''Keep it clean''' - No NSFW content. This includes pornography, sexual innuendos, and violent or gruesome speech.
#'''Be Yourself''' - Do not abuse the /nick function. Sockpuppets will not be tolerated. If you are a suspected sockpuppet, you will be banned. Don't think we're stupid, we've dealt with plenty of socks and flamers, we will identify you, confront you, and ban you o_O
#'''No spam''' - Please limit the number of links and images you post. We love seeing what you like, but if your links begin to flood the channel, you're spamming it.
#'''No leaks''' - Leaks from unreleased games are strictly prohibited. Do not share leaks or unofficially released images. Also, do not promote piracy.
#'''Keep the conversation on the appropriate channels''' - Keep the discussion on the same topic for each channel. Especially keep unreleased or newly released game discussions in #traverse-town-square. This channel can be viewed by typing '''*rank spoiled''' in the #bot-shack channel! It's also encouraged to hide your message with spoiler tags by surrounding your text with ||.
#'''Have fun!'''

Custom instructions for specific clients to come.


==UTF-8==
The #wikia-kingdomhearts channel uses the [[wikipedia:UTF-8|UTF-8]] encoding, just like the Wiki proper. This should not pose a problem with English, as UTF-8 is backwards compatible with ASCII-127, but non-Latin scripts (such as Greek or Cyrillic) may be rendered improperly in UTF-8-incapable clients.
