Warnings and Blocks

Warning is a written, public reminder notice sent to a specific user on their message wall. The purpose of a warning is to inform the user of potential consequences and to document instances of inappropriate behavior and should not be deleted from a user's wall unless proven unjustified.

Blocking is an extreme measure to prevent a specific user from causing harm to the wiki and should only be used in appropriate circumstances. The exact duration and criteria for blocking are determined on a case-by-case basis by the staff, but the following guidelines should be considered:

• In cases of minor damage and prior warnings, the block length should be 7 days, and if applicable, should be partial.
• The block length should increase depending on the severity and extent of the damage and the prior blocks and warnings given to the user.
• A permanent block may be issued if an account appears to be created solely for malicious purposes, or in cases of repeated violations and disregard for warnings and blocks.

Warnings do not "expire"; they should always be considered along with the duration since they were issued and any changes in a user's behavior.

If a user thinks their account was blocked by mistake or due to a false positive from the automatic vandalism prevention system, they can contact an administrator at Community Central.
