Please note that account names are not normally verified in any way. "User:John Smith" may not belong to someone called "John Smith", and in any case there may be more than one person by that name.
Note: all parameters are optional, however the link parameter should be included so that other editors can read the discussion that led to the banning.
link – adds text at the bottom of the template. This is often used to include a permanent link (or wikilink to the AN or ANI archive) to the discussion which resulted in the site ban. link2 and link3 can also be used for multiple decisions (such as recording a declined ban appeal).
time – specifies the time for which the user was banned.
A value of 'indef', 'indefinite', or 'indefinitely' will display as "banned indefinitely"
by – specifies the source of the ban. This may be just text or a wikilink to indicate who initiated the ban. For example, "the community" is often used for a community ban. In the case of users banned by the Arbitration Committee, please use the text "the Arbitration Committee" (with or without a link). This will suppress the appearance of a banner on the user page, and instead add the user to Category:Misplaced Pages users banned by the Arbitration Committee.
Please note that account names are not normally verified in any way. "User:John Smith" may not belong to someone called "John Smith", and in any case there may be more than one person by that name.
