Contributor conditions
Contribution Terms
These terms apply when someone deliberately submits code, written content, artwork, corrections, or other material for possible use in the D&D Portal Wiki.
Reading or using the public Wiki does not make someone a contributor and does not require acceptance of these contribution terms.
Contributors keep ownership of original material they legally own while granting the project permission to review, adapt, and publish accepted contributions.
Important Notice
These terms apply only when you voluntarily submit material for inclusion in the D&D Portal Wiki.
A contribution may be submitted through GitHub, email, another agreed communication method, or directly to the project owner.
What Counts as a Contribution
- Source code, components, styles, scripts, and configuration.
- Bug fixes and technical improvements.
- Rules explanations and reference text.
- Homebrew classes, subclasses, species, feats, spells, and items.
- Campaign descriptions, setting material, characters, locations, and lore.
- Images, icons, diagrams, maps, alternative text, and accessibility improvements.
General feedback or an idea that has not been incorporated into the project may not qualify as a protected contribution by itself.
Contributor Responsibility
Contributors should only submit material they are legally allowed to submit.
Do not submit confidential employer, school, client, campaign, or third-party information without permission.
Ownership of Original Contributions
Contributors retain copyright in original parts of their contribution that they legally own.
Submitting content does not transfer ownership of original work to Toon van Berkel or D&D Portal Wiki unless a separate written agreement says so.
Licence to Use Contributions
By submitting a contribution for inclusion, the contributor gives the project permission to review, edit, adapt, publish, reproduce, and maintain the contribution as part of the Wiki.
Accepted contributions may be modified to match the website structure, writing style, accessibility requirements, technical standards, and campaign rules.
Third-Party Material
Contributors should not submit third-party material unless they have permission or the material can lawfully be used by the project.
This includes text, artwork, maps, icons, datasets, code, screenshots, documents, campaign notes, and private communications.
Review, Refusal, and Removal
Submitting a contribution does not guarantee that it will be accepted, published, kept unchanged, or kept permanently available.
The project may refuse, edit, replace, restrict, or remove contributions for quality, accuracy, legal, safety, campaign, or maintenance reasons.
