Image:I alert-dev.gif  The contents of Rating and Censorship/Region Information are in-development. Please be patient while changes are formulated. Thank you!
At this region information page, you will find for each country information about these subjects:
  • Regional rating organisations
  • History of game ratings and censorship
  • Guidelines to ratings - what the ratings are, and what they are described to be.
  • Examples of games rated
  • Reviews of the rating practices
  • Laws for game ratings
  • Relevant history and culture information regarding censorship

If the region has got an organisation attached, then most of this will be linked to on the relevant organisation page.

[edit] International Regions

International regions (continents and collections of countries) may have their own rating system for a group of countries, or may have a set of smimilar rating boards, cultural and historical information, or common laws which are worth noting.

[edit] Countries

There are around 245 different countries in the world. Every country has a different set of rating laws or organisations which rate game media. Some lack either laws or rating boards.

[edit] Adding a region

To add a region to the wiki, add a link to one (Format: [[/Region Name|Region Name]], the full name of the region) of the 3 alphabetical lists.

  • International Regions covers a collection of countries
  • Countries covers any named country under one government and set of common laws (such as the United Kingdom, which really is 4 countries).
  • Other regions may be regional information for a group of countries without a name, or those with a common language but not geographically near each other.

For the page content, use the Example Region as a base.
