This policy explains how No Rest for the Wicked Wiki selects sources, verifies claims, publishes updates, and corrects errors. The site is independent and does not claim affiliation with Moon Studios.
Editorial responsibility
Public pages use the shared byline No Rest for the Wicked Wiki Editorial Team. The same team performs the current review because the project does not yet have separate named author and fact-checking desks. Pages state this directly instead of inventing individual contributors or credentials.
Source priority
Sources are evaluated in this order:
- Official patch notes, announcements, store pages, developer posts, and official media.
- Reproducible in-game evidence from the exact build named on the page, including original screenshots or recorded tests.
- Reliable English wikis, specialist guides, and community reports that clearly identify the current version and can be independently checked.
Search snippets, analytics data, retailer placeholders, datamined claims, isolated posts, and guides for a different build cannot independently verify gameplay facts.
Version and evidence rules
Current gameplay coverage is limited to the public Steam Early Access build. Experimental and Beta branches are outside the scope of published guides.
Every gameplay page identifies its release phase, version family, build label, and last verification date. It needs at least one current official or in-game evidence record and one independent current source. Builds, Tier Lists, material routes, and practical operation pages also require in-game evidence from the named build.
The 1.0 Hub can publish official prelaunch information and clearly labeled unknowns. Early Access gameplay does not automatically verify 1.0; affected pages return to review at full release.
Indexing and Hub rules
Unverified routes remain noindex, follow. A gameplay detail page becomes indexable only after its content and evidence are approved. A Hub also needs substantive content and at least three completed direct child guides; planning cards do not meet that standard.
Writing and AI assistance
Automation and AI tools may help organize sources, check structure, detect duplication, and prepare drafts. They do not replace source verification or editorial review. The site does not copy third-party guide text, and generated claims are never treated as evidence.
Updates and freshness
Every live gameplay page records its version, build, publication date, last verified date, evidence, and update triggers. A relevant official patch returns affected pages to review. At 1.0, equivalent topics are reverified at their existing URLs; removed topics become historical notes and remain outside the index.
Corrections
Readers can report a correction. Confirmed errors are corrected in the source page, the verification date is updated, and affected related pages are checked. Material uncertainty may be labeled or removed while review is in progress.
Independence and commercial policy
No Rest for the Wicked Wiki is an independent fan project. Advertising may be considered only after the site meets its internal content, trust, traffic, and page-experience thresholds. Advertising will not change source standards or place promotions before the main answer.
