This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Sorry, the BLP one was there because I didn't realize the guy that sparked it was dead. I can't technically undo the alert, though, due to log issues, so just beware of WP:BLP anyway. :P --slakrtalk / 02:45, 11 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

This is obviously unacceptable vandalism. As you've been blocked for this kind of nonsense several times before, and have removed many warnings for this, I've set the duration at three months. Kuru (talk) 13:48, 8 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
