Template:User article ban arb

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template is affixed to the talk pages of articles, from which an editor has been specifically banned by the Arbitration Committee, as an editing restriction. This template is not used to denote editors who are banned through the provisions of a general sanction, nor to denote that an article is under article probation; respectively, the templates to be used are {{user article ban}} and {{Article probation}}.

Template usage

[1]{{User article ban arb|Username|End date|Case name|Banning admin}}

  • Username—replace with the name of the account belonging to the user who is banned from editing the article
  • End date—replace this with the date upon which the sanction expires[2]
  • Case name—replace with the name of the case in which the remedy banning the editor was passed. Be sure to only use the subpage name: e.g., if the case was "Example", enter Example, rather than Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Example—a link is automatically inserted.
  • Banning admin—enter your username here, if you desire. If you are not "subst:"-ing the template, you should include this parameter.[3]

Notes

  1. ^ If you subst:- the template, it will automatically add your signature.
  2. ^ Using "i" as the duration will instruct the template to take the expiry as indefinite, and the text will then read "...is banned from editing this article, indefinitely."
  3. ^ You may wish to drop this parameter; if you ignore it, your signature is automatically inserted.
