Warlocks In Space Forum

There are multiple types of labels available for each form of content. These labels are necessary to help site visitors find the content type they are looking for. Content labeling begins on the "Submit A New Project For Review" page. Here you provide WISP staff with the current format of the project you want to monetize on the website and specify whether or not your project needs a Trigger Warning. Additional labels are added after your project is approved and include • Age of the Intended Audience • Genres • and Derivative Works Formats What is a Trigger Warning? A 'Trigger Warning' is a label that warns website visitors that content contains themes and descriptions of situtations that could cause (or trigger) a PTSD response in them. It is not implied that the content itself could cause PTSD, instead, it is a warning for visitors who have had previously had a traumatic experience to know that there could be something inside the content that would trigger their memories of that trauma. A Trigger Warning is the very first Content Label we request because Warlocks In Space employees need to know before reviewing content to be prepared for anything that could be upsetting. Common triggers include but are not limited to: • Abortion • Death • Domestic Abuse • Domestic Violence • Gender Ideology • Graphic Violence • Miscarriage • Pregnancy • Profanity • Religion • Sexual Assault / Sexual Abuse • Sexual Orientation • Substance abuse and drug use • Suicide A failure to include an appropriate Trigger Warning Label when submitting a project will result in an automatic rejection of that project. More about the definitions of the Trigger Warning Labels are available in the post titled Trigger Warning Definitions. Age of Intended Audience Here at WISP, all content is labeled with the age of the intended audience. This is done for multiple reasons. Some content is inappropriate for some ages. This could be because the concepts are too simple and boring for the average adult, or because the concepts are too complex, adult, or inappropriate for children. The appropriateness of a piece of content for children will ultimately need to be determined by their parents and guardians. However, the complexity of the content as intended for various audience ages is labeled on the WISP website to assist site visitors. There are a few specific caveats to the age appropriateness of content. Anything with content that necessitates a Trigger Warning (regardless of the type of warning) must be labeled as "Contains Trauma Triggers (Parental Guidance Recommended) in the "Intended Audience Age" label of the content. Any content that contains 18+ content but is labeled for any age under 18 will be removed from the website, the content creator will receive a warning, and if they continue to violate the Content Guidelines they will be banned from the website. Any content found to contain Trauma Triggers but is not labeled with the type of trauma trigger will be removed from the website, the content creator will receive a warning, and if they continue to violate the Content Guidelines they will be banned from the website. Genres There are currently 5 main genres and 29 total genre tags available for labeling your project. The five main categories are Fantasy, Horror, Romance, Science Fiction, and Non-Fiction. A complete list of all the genres and their definitions is on the Genres post. If there is a specific Genre or Sub-Genre you need for labeling your content please contact WISP staff to request it added to the list. Content Formats Content Format labeling starts on the submission page but is finalized on the content "Title, Subtitle, and Derivative Works" page. Here creators and collaborators are able to specify which formats they want their work and derivative works to take. Labeling your content format correctly is important to make sure creators receive the finished product they intended to have published and sold. (Learn more about Content Formats.)
