How the wiki is maintained
VBL Wiki Editorial Policy
The goal is not to publish the most pages. It is to make each answer useful, traceable, current enough to act on, and clear about uncertainty.
Publishing principles
What every page should do
Answer a real question
A page starts with the decision or problem a player is trying to solve.
Add original value
Mechanics are reorganized into comparisons, practice steps, decision rules, or interactive tools.
Separate fact and opinion
Patch facts, calculated estimates, and tier judgments are labeled differently.
Show recency
Codes, banners, tier snapshots, and changing mechanics include a review date.
Research workflow
How information is checked
The supplied Volleyball Legends Trello archive is used as the primary starting record for established mechanics and older data. Current information is compared with the live game listing, update notes, visible in-game labels, and established community-maintained records when direct official documentation is incomplete.
- 01
Collect
Identify the update, affected page, and exact claim that may have changed.
- 02
Cross-check
Compare current records and avoid presenting a single unconfirmed report as settled fact.
- 03
Explain
Turn raw values into a player-facing use case, tradeoff, or repeatable practice step.
- 04
Date
Update the verification stamp and preserve expired or superseded information where it remains useful.
Editorial judgment
Tier lists and recommendations
Rankings are dated opinions. They consider role value, consistency, execution difficulty, counterplay, and availability. A lower overall tier can still be the correct choice for a player's position or team.
Calculated output
Interactive tools
Calculators show their assumptions and separate probability from guaranteed pity. Finders and comparisons are decision aids, not promises. Software tools may assist with organizing information, but pages are reviewed against the same verification checklist before publication.
Accountability
Corrections and update requests
Confirmed errors are corrected on the affected page rather than hidden. Expired codes move into the archive, changed mechanics are rewritten, and old tier advice is re-evaluated after balance updates. Reports should include the page URL, current wording, proposed correction, and evidence that can be checked.
