Hey all,

I'm jaxspider, one of the quiet mods of /r/iWallpaper. I can no longer remain quiet and still be a mod here. So unless a mod above me directly tells me to stop, I am going to step in and do a complete subreddit overhaul of /r/iWallpaper. If you don't know who I am, I'm the one who fixed /r/Rule34 (NSFW). Speaking of which, I will be airlifting most of the strict posting rules from there to here. So this place becomes actually nice to browse for once.

Overhaul Overview

1. Real rules and their strict enforcement.
2. New mods to enforce rules.
3. Removal of ancient code.
4. Complete update subreddit's look if possible.

Posting Rules

1. Descriptive Titles
2. Crediting Artists
3. LinkFlairing
4. Content Creators Posting Procedure

Common Sense Rules

1. Direct link to wallpaper(s)
2. No Misc dump / compilations
3. No requests
4. No NSFW
5. No low quality images
6. Only links to approved sites.
7. No Reposts before 120 days
8. Only 5 posts per day per user

Flair Ideas

I am going to remove all the ancient flair code. So no more specific phone models or resolution to select. Instead I'm thinking of using the flair system for specific type of content.

• iWallpaper (Default LinkFlair)
• CREATOR (for OC content)
• SOURCE (For posting the the source / artist)
• TABLET (for square pictures or non vertical images)
• OLED (For any kind of Oled/Amoled posters)
• AI (for images made by AI programs)
• WIDE (for widescreen images)
• ANIMATED (is that a thing?)

Updates to this WIP

• I will try my best to keep updating the main post. So keep checking back.
• Right now I'm still in the planning phase. So nothing is final.
• I have started to expand on the new rules here.
• I wrote an example of how content creators can promote their creations. here.
• Added Common Sense Rules
• Renamed "New Rules" to "New Posting Rules" or "Posting Rules". Finalization of name TBA.
• Added AI Linkflair cause I see the need for it now.
• Created a removed message updated for new procedure.
• Added Amoled Linkflair.
• Updated main post and comment with new POSTING Rules
• Moved direct image & misc album to common sense rules section.

#Reminder

I've temp banned three "Content creators" for now. Will unban them once the new rules take effect. They can stay active if they follow the new rules going forward. This is a reminder for myself.
