==Things that we cover==

*All official ''Bloons'' media, including games, ~~merchandise~~, and ~~soundtracks~~, receive full coverage.

*All official ''Bloons'' media, including games, animations, soundtracks, and merchandise, receive full coverage. This includes unofficial content that was later made official (e.g. [[Avatar (cosmetic category)|Avatar]]s based on fan art).

**''[[~~Bloons Adventure Time TD~~]]~~'' is just as much a part of~~ ''Bloons'' as ''[[~~Bloons Monkey City]]'', so the game gets the same degree of coverage, even for the stuff from ''~~Adventure Time~~''. Only ''~~Adventure Time'' ~~subjects that are relevant to~~ ''~~BATTD~~'' ~~receive~~ coverage ~~(sorry Lich)~~, ~~and~~ only ~~for~~ their roles within the ~~game~~. For example, it's fine to mention that [[Ice King]] is obsessed with princesses because that aspect of his character is also present in ''~~BATTD~~'', but the fact that he used to be a human ~~should be ignored~~ because that is never acknowledged within the game.

*Content originating from another property that appears in official collaborations with ''Bloons'' media (e.g. ''[[wp:Adventure Time|Adventure Time]]'' or ''[[wp:Masters of the Universe|Masters of the Universe]]'') also receives coverage, but only as far as their roles within the ''Bloons'' media they appear in. For example, it's fine to mention that [[Ice King]] is obsessed with princesses because that aspect of his character is also present in ''[[Bloons Adventure Time TD]]'', but the fact that he used to be a human is not covered because that is never acknowledged within the game.

*All companies involved in the creation of ''Bloons'' media receive coverage. Their articles should mainly describe their involvement with ''Bloons'' and only list the ''Bloons'' media they were involved in. ~~Modern Times Group is not currently covered because they appear~~ to ~~have very little involvement with ''Bloons'' besides owning~~ [[Ninja Kiwi]].

*All companies involved in the creation of ''Bloons'' media receive coverage. Their articles should mainly describe their involvement with ''Bloons'' and only list the ''Bloons'' media they were involved in. Companies related to [[Ninja Kiwi]] that otherwise have little direct involvement in their game production may be described on Ninja Kiwi's article (e.g. Modern Times Group and NZ on Air), but they do not warrant their own pages.

*Non-''Bloons'' media that contains significant ''Bloons'' content or interacts with official ''Bloons'' media in some way gets coverage, but only for the content relevant to ''Bloons''. For example, [[Ninja Kiwi Archive]] ~~has~~ an article, but it only ~~covers~~ the ''Bloons'' games it ~~contains~~, and [[Wheel of Fate]] ~~gets~~ an article~~, but it only covers the~~ ''Bloons''~~-related prizes~~.

*Non-''Bloons'' media that contains significant ''Bloons'' content or interacts with official ''Bloons'' media in some way gets coverage, but only for the content relevant to ''Bloons''. For example, [[Ninja Kiwi Archive]] warrants an article, but only covering the ''Bloons'' games it features, and [[Wheel of Fate]] warrants an article for giving prizes in ''Bloons'' games.
