Template:AE sanction/doc

From blackwiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This template is a convenient, standardised method of notifying an editor that they have had discretionary sanctions or arbitration sanction(s) imposed on them. Only uninvolved administrators may sanction another editor under the terms of an arbitration policy, and sanctions must be given in accordance with the procedure at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions or a specific arbitration case.

The template requires three parameters:

{{subst:AE sanction
| sanction   = <description of sanction imposed on recipient of notice>
| rationale  = for the reasons provided in response to [{{fullurl:Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement|oldid=REVISIONID#USERNAME}} this arbitration enforcement request].
| decision   = <decision code – see below for list> OR <link to final decision page, *without* #Final_decision anchor>
}}

A blank copy of the template is below, so you do not have to delete the explanatory text from the above:

{{subst:AE sanction
|
|
|
}}

You don't have to declare the parameter names – only their values – but you can if you so wish (and may have to, if supplying tricky values):

This template provides its own level-2 heading so no subject should be entered. The template must always be substituted. Your signature is automatically included.

The "decision code" is one of the same decision codes used in the other standardised Arbitration Enforcement templates: Template:Uw-sanctions/usage
