Documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template has been carefully designed based on guidelines by the user warnings project and the standardised block message.
Please refer to the index of message templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending. Note: Only administrators can block users; adding a block template does not constitute a block. See RFAA (mostly likely SPI) to request that a user be blocked.
Please remember to substitute the template by using {{subst:Callanecc/uw-sockblock}} rather than {{User:Callanecc/uw-sockblock}}.
Although this template must be substituted in the user talk page, it has also been designed to display properly when substitution is not possible.

Usage

Place this template on the user talk page (not the user page) of blocked editor. All parameters are optional, except if you are blocking a sockpuppeteer, in which case |masterblock=yes must be included.

Sockpuppets

{{subst:User:Callanecc/uw-sockblock
| master      = just the username, no [[]] or "User:"
| confirmed   = "yes" if confirmed by CheckUser if not omit parameter
| anon        = "yes" if blocking an IP, if an account omit parameter

| time        = how long they are blocked for, if indefinite omit parameter

| spi         = subpage name of SPI (that is, just the username at the end)
| evidence    = any additional evidence used

| notalk      = "yes" or omit parameter
| sig         = "yes" or omit parameter
}}

Sockpuppeteers

{{subst:User:Callanecc/uw-sockblock
| masterblock = yes

| anon        = "yes" if blocking an IP, if an account omit parameter

| time        = how long they are blocked for, if indefinite omit this parameter
| indef       = "yes" otherwise omit this parameter

| spi         = page name of SPI, no [[]]
| evidence    = any other evidence

| notalk      = "yes" or omit parameter
| sig         = "yes" or omit parameter
}}

Parameters

All parameters

{{subst:User:Callanecc/uw-sockblock|anon=yes|time=Duration|masterblock=yes|guidance=no|master=username only if not masterblock|confirmed=yes|spi=title of the SPI subpage|evidence=any evidence used to make the block|reason=For a different reason|notalk=yes|sig=yes}}

Notes

Omitting |masterblock=yes will tailor the wording for a sockpuppet and also state that the block is indefinite (unless overridden with |time=.
For long term disruptive sockpuppets or established users include |guidance=no which will remove "Multiple accounts are allowed ... deleted without discussion".
|confirmed=yes parameter should always be omitted unless a CheckUser has confirmed the sockpuppetry.
|reason= will override mention of sockpuppetry being the reason, but keep the guidance parameter (which can be removed independently, see above).
