Incivility and personal attacks should be replaced with the {{[[Template:personal remark removed|personal remark removed]]}} template. As a last resort, and in the most extreme circumstances, the sysop or blocking editor may have to resort to a block.
Incivility and personal attacks should be replaced with the {{[[Template:personal remark removed|personal remark removed]]}} template. As a last resort, and in the most extreme circumstances, the sysop or blocking editor may have to resort to a block.
The {{[[Template:Hide collapse|hide collapse]]}} template could be used when a posting derails, either purposely or unwittingly, the original topic thread. However, the template needs to be used with caution and not simply as a means to silence critics. Ideally, the original creator of the topic thread would use the template if they feel a poster is attempting to derail the topic with excess, superfluous information, or off-topic derailment.

#If you have run checkuser (which you should generally only do with probable cause) and determined the user has created sock-puppet accounts, the user should be blocked. Be wary that multiple distinct users might just be editing from a public location - for example a school, a coffee house or a library.

Be wary that multiple distinct users might just be editing from a public location - for example a school, a coffee house or a library.
#Furthermore, users with blocking rights must be very careful in the issuance of a block. Unwarranted blocks that may be undone clog the block log, and future Administrators may unfairly consider an established user as a troublemaker, when the real problem lies with an unjustifiable block made by an Administrator. When a blocking error occurs, it's best for everyone involved for the original blocking editor to undo the action so as to limit confusion. However, this is not always possible. Use the Edit summary to create a permanent record for blocking justification.

#The primary purpose of the blocking tool is aimed at behavior modification, not [[vengeance]].
