Commons-emblem-issue.svgWARNING: ACTIVE ARBITRATION REMEDIES

The article Template:Post-1932 American politics discretionary sanctions page restrictions, along with other highly visible articles relating to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, is currently subject to discretionary sanctions authorized by active arbitration remedies (see WP:ARBAPDS). The current restrictions are:

  • Consensus required: All editors must obtain consensus on the talk page of this article before reinstating any edits that have been challenged (via reversion). If in doubt, don't make the edit.
  • Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period).
  • This article and its editors are subject to Misplaced Pages's general sanctions: All edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, are placed under discretionary sanctions. Any uninvolved administrator may levy restrictions as an arbitration enforcement action on users editing in this topic area, after an initial warning.

An administrator has applied the restriction above to this article. This is pursuant to an arbitration decision which authorized discretionary sanctions for pages relating to all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. If you breach the restriction on this page, you may be blocked or otherwise sanctioned. Please edit carefully.

Further information
Enforcement procedures:
  • Editors who violate this restriction may be blocked without warning by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offence.

With respect to the WP:1RR restriction:

  • Clear vandalism of whatever origin may be reverted without restriction. Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.

Discretionary sanctions can be used against any editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process. Discretionary sanctions can include blocks, topic-bans, or other restrictions.
Violations of any of these restrictions should be reported to the Arbitration enforcement noticeboard.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!
