WordGirl Wiki:User Blocking Policy

If a user is violating policies on this Wiki, they may be in need of a temporary block or permanent ban. These are the rules and procedures to be followed by administrators and bureaucrats when dealing with a user potentially in need of a block/ban:

Blocking procedure

 * 1) If a user is found to be violating Wordgirl Wiki policies, they should first be gently notified that they are doing so.
 * 2) If the user disregards the notification mentioned above, they must be given at least one official warning that they will be blocked/banned if they do not comply with policy.
 * 3) Upon further failure to heed warnings and follow policies, the user should be given, according to the severity of their misconduct, a block ranging in length between one week and one month, along with a notification that they have been given a warning block.
 * 4) After the block has expired, the user will be allowed to resume normal activity.
 * 5) If the user begins to act badly again, they should be administered a block of up to one year.

Banning procedure

 * If, after the above measures have been taken, the user continues to be a problem, an administrator or bureaucrat may permanently ban the user from editing on the Wiki.
