Problem with the wording :( edit

Hello dear,

I might of found a problem in the "Use common sense" section; readers might not know the proverbial meaning of "loss of perspective". 160.32.212.38 (talk) 23:20, 29 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Seems like some problem with the first bullet point in WP:NOTIAR edit

For example, you cannot violate Wikipedia:No legal threats without being blocked — does it mean you can violate it after being blocked? Or, I am misunderstanding it? Lightbluerain (Talk💬 Contribs✏️) 07:27, 7 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

I don’t think it’s trying to say that; just that one would get blocked if they violated that rule. One may be able to violate many rules on Wikipedia before or after being blocked, even if the circumstances do not warrant doing so, but that would almost certainly lead to further consequences. –Gluonz talk contribs 15:30, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
