Translations:Test Wiki:Blocks and bans/7/en

Bans are formal measures, which may have a block imposed to enforce them. Bans can be placed by any Steward, or by community consensus. Bans can either be partial, such as restricting someone from a certain namespace, or they can be sitewide, prohibiting all editing by a particular user. Bans may be implied (most often by the community declining an unblock request) or explicit. They may have a set duration or be indefinite. You may face repurcussions for reverting a block clearly marked as being part of a community ban/sanction without the consent of the community, or for reverting a block marked as a Steward action based entirely on public evidence without the consent of a steward or the community.
