What are PubliWrite’s community guidelines?

PubliWrite is designed to be a respectful and supportive space for authors, readers, and creators.

These community guidelines help make sure conversations, reviews, feedback, and interactions on the platform remain helpful, fair, and safe for everyone.

Be respectful

Treat other members of the community with respect.

Do not use PubliWrite to post or share:

Harassment
Personal attacks
Hate speech
Discriminatory language
Threats or abusive comments
Intentionally offensive or hostile messages

You can disagree with someone’s opinion, review, or feedback, but the conversation should remain respectful.

Keep feedback constructive

Feedback should help authors and readers, not discourage or attack them.

When leaving a review, comment, or response, try to be clear, honest, and helpful.

Avoid:

Insults or personal criticism
Aggressive language
Mocking an author, reader, or reviewer
Comments that are meant only to upset or provoke
Repetitive or irrelevant replies

Constructive feedback can still be critical, but it should focus on the book, content, or reading experience — not on the person.

Only share content that you created or have permission to use.

Do not post or upload content that infringes someone else’s rights, including:

Plagiarised writing
Stolen images or illustrations
Unauthorised excerpts
Content copied from another author
Material you do not have permission to publish or share

Authors are responsible for making sure they have the rights to the content they submit or publish.

Keep content appropriate

Content shared on PubliWrite should follow the platform’s content rules and remain suitable for the community.

Avoid posting or sharing content that is:

Abusive
Misleading
Spammy
Deliberately offensive
Unrelated to the platform
Created only to manipulate reviews, ratings, or visibility

Books, reviews, comments, and other public content may be reviewed if they are reported or appear to break the guidelines.

Respect privacy

Do not share private or sensitive information about yourself or others.

This includes:

Personal contact details
Private messages
Payment or account information
Addresses or private locations
Information about another person without their permission

You should also avoid asking other users for sensitive personal information.

Do not manipulate reviews or engagement

Reviews and engagement should reflect real reader experiences.

Do not:

Write fake reviews
Ask others to leave dishonest reviews
Offer rewards in exchange for positive reviews
Create multiple accounts to influence ratings
Pressure readers to leave a specific rating
Post misleading comments to promote or damage a book

Honest reviews help readers make better decisions and help authors build trust.

Report problems when needed

If you see a book, review, comment, or behaviour that appears to break these guidelines, you can report it to the PubliWrite team.

Reports help the team review possible issues and keep the platform safe and respectful.

Please only report content when there is a genuine concern. Reports should not be used simply because you disagree with someone’s opinion or rating.

What happens if someone breaks the guidelines?

If content or behaviour breaks PubliWrite’s community guidelines, the team may review the situation and take action where needed.

Depending on the issue, this may include:

Asking for changes
Removing or hiding content
Limiting access to certain features
Rejecting or removing content from the platform
Taking further action if the issue is serious or repeated
