It’s in a blue country, free for anyone to edit. This page might be useful: http://wiki.opengeofiction.net/wiki/index.php/OGF:Blue_country_etiquette

Also, you can’t use real world trademarks on OpenGeoFiction. This was a rule change made several months ago to protect the project from possible legal action.

I know that it’s a blue country and there is copyright issues, but you don’t go inside a person’s city and edit them. I don’t go to Grey Lake City and edit it.

If you’re editing in a blue territory it is polite to add a description when saving your edits. I’d also back up what’s been said about real-world trademarks and people editing in blue territories.

Trademark issues, not copyright.

Myrcia has a point, both with describing edits and citing the wiki page. Regarding Grey Lake City specifically, I wouldn’t mind if people added things as long as isn’t obviously “out of place”. Businesses in downtown would be fine; hectares of cow pasture wouldn’t be.

Sorry, misspoke, it was wangi who cited the wiki page.
