VRCWiki talk:Notability
From VRChat Wiki
Notability for groups.
I'm curious for the ability for Groups to be added to the Community section, So where "worlds,avatars,guides" are. I belive adding a new section for groups within community content to allow users to create Group Info pages for groups such as Offline, The Cauldron, Ministry promotions and more, However I'm not sure where this could fall under notability. My most optimal out-look for groups being able to be listed on the wiki is if they are demonstraghting the ability to maintain events such as music events or have a certain member count, Say 250+ to be fair to smaller communitys(?).

- The inital idea behind the community space is to have informative pages. We decided to not allow groups directly to prevent repeating just another "gaming, drinking, party" group with a million users. We expected groups with the same goals to share the same page. Communities with own worlds (meating criterias) could also have there worlds on the wiki.
- Me personally are all for allowing more content in every direction on the wiki, but I'm mostly alone in the wiki Team with this mindset. Hackebein (talk) 07:42, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- I don't intend to just "write" about groups, My thoughts on having more public information on user groups were to focus on "Active" and general to promote, I understand the potetional issues, but everyone on the wiki should remember that this Is indeed a Wiki, Everything here should be unbiased and easy to understand, If there is content restrictions it should be for vaild reasons, Notiability is the Only primary reason I can come up with that can cause restriction on "what" or "which" groups could be publicly displayed here, Generally speaking I see no problems talking about Known public rave groups aslong as I withhold to using the standard of posting the Wiki asks of me, I see no issue or restriction, Since no pages exisits for groups are user pages free-create?
- Say I were to make Community:Groups:Offline, Would that work for wiki links? I'm still relevetivly new to editting and want to make sure I don't mess-up an edit or miswrite anything, If the wiki-team can't even answer my question I will make the page(s) and leave the team to Move the page where appropriate.

- > Since no pages exisits for groups are user pages free-create?
- You are always free to create as long as it follows our guidelines and policies. Pages in User-Contect (starting with "User:") are excluded from most guidelines and policies.

- yes you could make the page but it would mean the page is in "Community:" context and the name of the page would be "Groups:Offline". i hope that makes sense. You can always check if you can create a page if you navigate to the page: Community:Groups:Offline Hackebein (talk) 08:03, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
