![Commons-emblem-issue.svg](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Commons-emblem-issue.svg/50px-Commons-emblem-issue.svg.png) | WARNING: ACTIVE ARBITRATION REMEDIES The article Template:Editnotices/Group/Talk:United States Senate special election in Alabama, 2017 is currently subject to discretionary sanctions authorized by active arbitration remedies (see WP:ARBAPDS). An administrator has applied the following restrictions to this article:
- Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period).
- Consensus required: All editors must obtain consensus on the talk page of this article before reinstating any edits that have been challenged (via reversion). This includes making edits similar to the ones that have been challenged. If in doubt, don't make the edit.
These restrictions have been imposed pursuant to an arbitration decision which authorized discretionary sanctions for all edits about, and all pages related to, post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. If you breach the restriction on this page, you may be blocked or otherwise sanctioned. Any uninvolved administrator may levy restrictions as an arbitration enforcement action on users editing in this topic area, after an initial alert. Please edit carefully.
Remedy instructions and exemptions
|
Enforcement procedures:
- Violations of any of these restrictions should be reported immediately to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard.
- Editors who are aware of discretionary sanctions in this topic area and who violate these restrictions may be sanctioned by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
With respect to the WP:1RR restriction:
- The usual exemptions apply.
- Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors 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.
- Whenever you are relying on one of these exemptions, you should refer to it in your edit summary and, if applicable, link to the discussion where consensus was clearly established.
Discretionary sanctions can be used against any editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process. Discretionary sanctions can include blocks, topic-bans, or other restrictions.
If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!
