Quick links

All sanctions and page restrictions, except page protections, must be logged by the administrator who applied the sanction or page restriction at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log. Page protections must clearly note in the protection reason that the protection action is an arbitration enforcement action and link to the applicable contentious topic page (e.g., WP:CT/BLP), which will cause the action to be automatically logged at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log/Protections.

To be valid, sanctions must be clearly and unambiguously labelled as an arbitration enforcement action (such as with "arbitration enforcement", "arb enforcement", "AE" or "WP:AE" in the Wikipedia log entry or the edit summary). If a sanction has been logged as an arbitration enforcement action but has not been clearly labelled as an arbitration enforcement action any uninvolved administrator may amend the sanction (for example, a null edit or reblocking with the same settings) on behalf of the original administrator. Labelling a sanction which has been logged does not make the administrator who added the label the "enforcing administrator" unless there is confusion as to who intended the sanction be arbitration enforcement.

A central log of all page restrictions and sanctions (including blocks, bans, page protections or other restrictions) placed as arbitration enforcement (including contentious topic restrictions) is to be maintained by the Committee and its clerks at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log and Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log/Protections.

  • Template:UFO sidebar, six months semi-protection. Daniel Case (talk) 04:54, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
  • Aganon77 (talk · contribs) is topic-banned from paranormal phenomena, broadly construed, and page-blocked from Ganzfeld experiment and its talkpage. (AE thread.) -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 06:41, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
  • Per AE thread:
    • 3rdspace (talk · contribs) is topic-banned from acupuncture, broadly construed. This ban will expire automatically when their account becomes extendedconfirmed. They are reminded of the importance of avoiding inflammatory statements in a contentious topic area.
    • Tgeorgescu (talk · contribs) is made subject to the following bespoke restriction on arguing:

      Within the topic area of pseudoscience and fringe science, broadly construed, Tgeorgescu is indefinitely restricted from making any comments in a disagreement over an article's content that go beyond discussing specific improvements (narrowly construed). For instance, he may not discuss the merits of the article's subject nor digress into tangentially related topics. He may not contact users on their talk pages to discuss such disagreements, except to give neutral, policy-compliant notifications of discussions elsewhere or give CTOP alerts. He may bring such disputes to user conduct noticeboards if necessary, but his reports should be narrowly focused on the conduct of the user in question, not the merits of the underlying dispute.

      This restriction may be enforced by escalating blocks, or the imposition of a partial or complete topic ban, at the discretion of the enforcing administrator. An administrator may also impose a topic ban if disruption continues in the topic area in other forms.

      It is stressed that this sanction's carve-out for "discussing specific improvements" is "narrowly construed". If Tgeorgescu does not feel that he can be a good judge of whether a comment discusses specific improvements or argues the topic more generally, he is welcome to voluntarily adhere to a narrower sanction.

  • Per AE consensus, AlvaKedak is warned for four breaches, albeit minor, of their topic ban. They are advised that editors proceed at their own peril when they operate in topic areas closely related to an area they are banned from, and that especially in the early days of a topic ban it is a good idea to avoid these; repeated violations, even if accidental, may lead to blocks. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 15:26, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
