Discretionary sanctions
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to, (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed, 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.

RE: Semi-protection + AGF
AGF is not a suicide pact - in other words, practicality has to take precedence over it. In this case, there are at least four confirmed off-wiki boards' worth of people without active WP accounts who have repeatedly posted some form of BLP violation or another (typically against Quinn, Sarkeesian, or Gjoni) to the article and/or talk page, in complete ignorance (or, often, defiance) of WP:VNT, WP:NOR, and/or WP:RGW. At this point, it's not really the best topic area for new editors (or anyone, really, IMO), but, if you edit some other articles, take the time to learn our policies, and then insist on participating, I won't stop you. Good luck, in any case. Random (?) 06:07, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
