Leaks
Images of unreleased figures leaked from factories or watermarked set images are strictly forbidden on the wiki. Any image portraying leaked material will be deleted and the uploader may be blocked.
Leaked information, speculation, and rumors are not allowed on the Ninjago Wiki. Leaked information includes (but is not limited to) images with a "confidential" watermark and minifigures which have been taken from factories that sometimes find their way onto the web.
Speculation and rumors are any assumptions about the story or set that does not have confirmation in official media. Any and all information about leaked sets is not allowed. Please wait until the sets appear on LEGO.com or the site of an official vendor before adding them to the Wiki. Plot points from episodes may only be added to a page once the episode has officially aired in English somewhere in the world.
Information based on future content in all situations must have a reliable source. If you would like to dispute a source, please contact a staff member.
Spoilers
Non-English content
When non-English episodes are aired before the episode is released in English, special actions are taken to avoid giving spoilers and false information to readers as well as fellow editors.
Users are still welcome to edit the history section of the subject, plot of an episode, appearances section, and gallery; however, these markups (<!-- -->) must be used when editing the page. The markups will allow users to continue editing the article freely, but it will hide the content from public view.
Finally, translations of dialogue is often uncertain and inaccurate from its English counterpart, so information about the origin of objects, characters, etc. is not allowed on pages. Under no circumstances may users rename and/or move pages based on information from non-English episodes. If something new is introduced that doesn't have an article, users are welcome to create the article, but this template must be added.
English content
When an episode airs in English, all information related to it must be covered using <div id="SpoilerAlert"> </div>. After the episode has been aired for more than 72 hours may the template be removed. If a non-English episode aired before the English episode, all information covered with the markups (<!-- -->) must switch to the other template.
