community. To help with this, there are a few rules to improve the quality of
the listings and to combat abuse.
* No inappropriate content.
* Content must be playable/useful, but not necessarily finished.
* Don't use the name of another mod unless your mod is a fork or reimplementation.
* Licenses must allow derivatives, redistribution, and must not discriminate.
* Don't put promotions are advertisements in package listings, except for
donation and personal website links which are permitted in the long description.

## 1. General
It is not permitted to submit abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful,
threatening, sexually-orientated or any material that may violate any laws be
it of your country, the country where "Content DB” is hosted or International Law.
The ContentDB admin reserves the right to remove packages for any reason,
including ones not covered by this document, and to ban users who abuse this service.
Also see the [help page on tags](/help/package_tags/).
## 2. Accepted Content and State of Completion
## 2. Accepted Content
### 2.1. Acceptable Content
Sexually-orientated content is not permitted.
Mature content, including that relating to drugs, excessive gore, violence, or
horror, is not currently permitted - but will be in the future.
The submission of malware is strictly prohibited. This includes software which
does not do as it advertises, for example if it posts telemetry without stating
clearly that it does in the package meta.
### 2.2. State of Completion
ContentDB should only currently contain playable content - content which is
sufficiently complete to be useful to end users. It's fine to add stuff which
is still a work in progress (WIP) as long as it adds sufficient value -
Mineclone 2 is a good example of a WIP package which may break between releases
MineClone 2 is a good example of a WIP package which may break between releases
but still has value. Note that this doesn't mean that you should add a thing
you started working on yesterday, it's worth adding all the basic stuff to
make your package useful.
