Line 1: ~~{{WIP}}~~ {{Help navigation}} '''Blocking''' is the means by which an ~~[[Wookieepedia:Administrators\|~~administrator]] prevents a user from editing ~~[[Wookieepedia]]~~this wiki. Blocks are ~~preventative rather than punitive measures,~~ designed to stop disruption and enforce site policies. Block lengths may vary, depending on the severity of the disruption, but in most cases a block may be lifted if the offending user agrees to stop the disruptive behavior. ==How blocks work== Line 10 ⟶ 9: ==Grounds for blocking== The following section lists some of the most common reasons for which a block may be issued on this wiki. This list is by no means comprehensive, and administrators are not bound by these specific cases. All blocks issued by administrators are on a case by case basis. #'''Inappropriate content''' — Content that is not allowed on this wiki, either in [[Emmy_The_Robot_Fandom_Wiki:Content_policy#Questionable content\|written]] or [[Emmy_The_Robot_Fandom_Wiki:Image_policy#General\|image]] form #'''Breaking policy''' — Not following the rules laid out in other policies pages #'''Vandalism''' — Any edit made to deliberately lower the quality of this wiki, such as adding nonsense to articles or blanking pages #'''Disruption''' — Behavior that damages this wiki and its community #'''Fanon''' — ~~Mixing~~Adding ~~unofficial fan-made~~fanon content ~~with~~to canon ~~content~~ pages. #'''Personal attacks''' — Users/edits personally attacking ~~other~~people ~~users~~or their work #'''Sockpuppetry''' — An attempt by a user to evade an existing block in order to continue to edit ~~Wookieepedia~~this wiki #'''Consensus violation''' — Deliberate attempts to counteract ~~Wookieepedia~~this wiki's policies #'''Commercialization spam''' — Adding commercial links or content to articles Line 27 ⟶ 28: ===AbuseFilter=== The [[Special:AbuseFilter\|AbuseFilter]] [[Wikipedia:MediaWiki\|MediaWiki]] extension may only be modified by the administration. As with all blocking decisions, any AbuseFilter modification designed to issue a block falls under [[Wookieepedia:Administrative autonomy\|Administrative autonomy]], though false-positive blocks issued by the AbuseFilter may be immediately removed by any administrator. ==I've been blocked. What do I do?== If you were blocked on this site, you can reach out for more information or an appeal by [[Emmy The Robot ~~Fan~~Fandom Wiki:About#Contact us\| contacting us]].
