Welcome to the headquarters of GURPS Wiki!

Announcement Don't forget about legal stuff when posting on GURPS Wiki, especially for 3e to 4e update material. See the page About Third Edition Updates To Fourth Edition for more information.

To Do In order to ease the transition of material from the forum, let's suggest forum users to: a) put permission for house rules, characters, templates, etc. in their signature; b) use standard tag, ie: <<GurpsWiki>> in their posts that means "permission granted to repost on GurpsWiki". Also it would be good if we could gather a team of editors who move material from the forum to the wiki. (author: Rayner Ape)

Legal stuff

A note about third edition updates to fourth edition

You can submit updates to GURPS Third Edition material for GURPS Fourth Edition on GURPS Wiki. However, you must be aware that Steve Jackson Games retains the ownership of such material. If they ever publish the official updates in a sourcebook, it will obviously look a lot like what you posted here. Steve Jackson Games won't owe anything to you, as you based your work on their stuff in the first place (both the original material and GURPS Fourth Edition!). Posting updated material for GURPS Fourth Edition is therefore something you'll do for free, without getting any rights on it except the right to rejoice for giving the community some useful and valuable stuff.

For more information about this, you can read this thread about 4th edition updates and more specifically this post from Ellie The Technomancer who gave some legal information on the subject.

If you have any question, please contact Steve Jackson Games directly.

There are some legal things every contributor should keep in mind before posting on GURPS Wiki. Steve Jackson Games has an online policy that you should read (at least a bit!).

You must also keep in mind that everything about GURPS and other such things as Infinite Worlds or Transhuman Space are the intellectual property of Steve Jackson Games. The same goes for other intellectual properties such as licensed worlds or games which are frequently used in Game System Conversions, for example. Everytime you post material belonging to somebody else, make sure you get their approval. If, on the other hand, you own the intellectual rights over something you've seen on this website, and for which you didn't give your approval, you can contact Lord Abdul or THONA.

The legal status of original contributed material is void, though. As this website is run by the community, anyone can expand or modify some material posted by somebody else (for example, an original universe, a character, etc.). Everything belongs to nobody. When we get some authentication features on this Wiki, we'll be able to protect some topics (they will require a valid login) and allow a person or a group of persons to be the only authors for a specific number of pages. Until then, it's all open.

If you have any technical questions or problems about the website, please contact THONA, who owns the server.
