Usage

edit

The following parameters are required:

{{subst:Uw-aeblock|reason=brief reason specifying the misconduct}}

The following parameter is optional but is highly advised:

{{subst:Uw-aeblock|reason=brief reason specifying the misconduct|decision=full pagename of the arbitration decision (will be auto linked) or if enforcing contentious topics see #codes below}}

Other optional parameters:

|time=Duration - can be used to specify the duration of the block.
|indef=yes - if the block is indefinite - ensure that the arbitration decision allows indefinite blocks.
|partial=yes - can be used if a partial block is used as the method of enforcement.
|area=partial block restrictions - can be used to indicate which areas the editor is blocked from, else the template displays "...editing certain areas of the encyclopedia."
|notalk=yes - if access to the talk page has also been revoked.
|page=pagename - page on which the conduct supporting the block occurred.
|noappealtome=yes - removes the sentence telling the user that they can appeal to the enforcing admin by email.
|sig=yes - appends your signature inside the block template.
|for= - if the word "for" before the reason doesn't grammatically work. For example, if for=per is written, the block notice will say "to enforce an arbitration decision per". Don't use this parameter if you don't want to change the word "for".
|decision= (or |topic=, |t=) - the topic code of the arbitration enforcement area, as listed below.
|hiddentext= - can be set to "no" to hide the default template hidden text.

Important notes

edit
  • If blocking under the contentious topics procedure, a reason for the sanction must be supplied.
  • Remember to log the sanction on the applicable case page.
  • This template has been carefully designed based on guidelines by the user warnings project and the Arbitration Committee.
  • 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 uninvolved administrators can issue arbitration enforcement blocks; adding a block template does not constitute a block. See arbitration enforcement requests to request that a user be blocked as enforcement of an arbitration decision.
  • Before blocking a user as an arbitration enforcement action, ensure that you have read the relevant remedies and enforcement provisions of the arbitration case which may include the contentious topics procedure.
  • Please remember to substitute the template by using {{subst:Uw-aeblock}} rather than {{Uw-aeblock}}.
  • Although this template must be substituted in the user talk page, it has also been designed to display properly when substitution is not possible.
