Celebria Rules and Guidelines
Celebria is the place to discuss current pop culture events. You should be mindful of a few things when creating threads here. We've outlined them for you below.
Post in
ATRL HQ if you have questions about these guidelines or wish to discuss them.
General
Thread titles:
– Use celebrities' actual names. It should be clear to everyone who the thread is about.
– Use their full names if multiple relevant celebrities share the same first name (e.g. Kylie, Justin).
– Don't capitalize any words in the thread title.
– Don't be subjective in the thread title (e.g. "looks tragic").
– Don't use descriptions designed to lure people in.
– No vulgar or suggestive language.
Content:
– Always provide a source, whether it's an article, photo or tweet. It had to have come from somewhere.
– Screenshots are usually not a valid source. If the thread is about a deleted tweet, provide more evidence that the tweet existed.
– Be mindful of the infringement rules. Don't copy more than 50% of the article in the post.
Celeb News
– Anything marked as a blog, editorial, op-ed, opinion etc. usually isn't news, unless the article was written by a celebrity. Post it in Base (if music-related) or The Lounge.
– No articles from sources that anyone can write for (e.g. Examiner) or that are otherwise unreliable.
– No old quotes, old interviews, old scandals. Current events only.
– No threads about the adult entertainment industry or its stars.
– Not every celebrity tweet is news. If it's only interesting to fans, discuss it in the celebrity's Fan Base.
– Music reviews (and consolidated Metacritic threads) belong in Base.
– Music-related lists belong in Base.
– Gossip is allowed, but emphasize it in the thread title ("rumored", "alleged", etc.)
Celeb Photos
– Post only recent photos, or photos that recently surfaced.
– Not every celebrity Instagram post is worthy of a thread. If it's only interesting to fans, discuss it in the celebrity's Fan Base.
– No nude leaks.
– Nothing that requires warning tags, unless it's from something official like a magazine or a calendar.
– No paparazzi photos of children of celebrities.
