Welcome to the Undertale AU Wiki's FAQ. Here you will have common/good questions answered and even get the answers to questions you didn't even know you had.
What is an AU?
An AU is an abbreviation for "Alternate Universe". What constitutes something to be an Undertale AU is that it must not be accessible in the game Undertale. If you are capable of accessing something in the game Undertale, it is considered an AT or "Alternate Timeline".
I have a page here that I now want deleted, what do I do?
This is unfortunate, but do not fret, as there is a process for this. What you do is you go to the pages that are yours that you would like deleted and put the template {{Speedydelete}} onto the top of the page. This will put it onto the Delete List. A ConMod or Admin will then come by and verify that it is indeed your page and delete it.
What will not help is removing the page's contents, or "blanking" it. That will only accomplish getting you banned.
I don't see a certain AU here, can I add it?
Yes, absolutely. Just be sure to thoroughly read the Article Creation Rules and Policies of the wiki first, and ensure the AU meets the existence requirements.
Is this a place to create AUs?
No. The purpose of the AU Wiki is to document already existing AUs. The exception to this is if the AU's story is published in blog posts.
AUs without existence can be put on the Undertale Ideas Wiki, however.
The AU I want to make an article for is not published in English, nor does it have an English translation. Is it still okay to make an article for it?
Yes, we allow any AU, whatever language is used to write the story. The lack of an (official) English translation does not matter. Preferably add that the story is not in English in some way on the article.
I'm having trouble uploading an image, it keeps saying "permission declined" whenever I try
Try giving the file an actual name and/or converting it to PNG. If you have already done this, make sure the name is also not entirely capital letters. If problems continue, then contact an admin.
I see a grammar mistake on a page that has the DontEdit template on it. Do I still need to ask permission from the author of the page?
No. The fixing of grammar mistakes is perfectly fine, so long as the other information on a page is untouched. Just be certain that something is a grammar mistake before fixing it, as it may or may not actually be one.
Why does one of the templates on my page say that my AU has no presence anywhere else, when it has a lot of art/a Tumblr/etc.?
The Non-existent template being on a page doesn't mean there is literally no content outside of the wiki. What it does mean is that there is no or too little content in terms of published story.
Does an AU need to have a wiki page to be "official"?
This is a common misconception that is absolutely not the case. A wiki page does not give an AU more importance. Besides, the only official AU is Deltarune.
My page keeps getting deleted, do you hate my AU or something?
No. It is nothing personal, and just means the page did not meet the minimum standards.
Why is my name on the Delete template?
It shows the name of whoever is looking at it, not yours specifically.
What is a CMod, DMod and ConMod?
Those are shortened names for the roles of some of the staff here on the wiki. A CMod is short for "Chat Moderator"; DMod is short for "Discussions Moderator"; and ConMod is short for "Content Moderator".
