==Criteria for Blocking==
Administrators are required to be fair while blocking users. Heavy-handed or unfair usage of the blocking function effects the community negatively and will be promptly reversed and reviewed so blocking must be done with great care. If a block can be disputed, other admins must be consulted before a user is blocked.
Administrators are required to be fair while blocking users. Heavy-handed or unfair usage of the blocking function effects the community negatively and will be promptly reversed, taken seriously and reviewed so blocking must be done with great care. If a block can be disputed, other admins must be consulted before a user is blocked.


The main criteria for blocking a user is this: Can a user make positive contributions to the site in the future? If the answer is maybe or yes, then they should not be blocked without consultation. All attempts should be made to communicate with the user before they are blocked. All efforts should be made to be fair, forgiving and give users plenty of chances to improve their work or correct their understanding of issues directly related to article content.
