→Potential policy: Conservapedia topic bans/main page talk bans
::::::The only way I can see this being somewhat practical without digital support is a "non-controversial" restriction. People who keep adding a LPoV might be banned from editing anything regarding politics or anything else liberalism has infiltrated. If they want to write a page on how cars are manufactured, then that's fine. However, they would not be allowed to change anything on the "evolution" article.--[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 22:10, 5 May 2017 (EDT)

DavidB4, thanks. You gave me an idea on how to better enforce the topic ban. But in most cases, it will probably be the blocker who enforces the topic ban. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 22:16, 5 May 2017 (EDT)

::So one troll creates 20 sockpuppets and ties the hands of the blocker. We've been thru this before. And all it leads to is the blocker controlling and fighting off his enemy, a fight over a page no nuetral third party wants to go near to contribute to resolve problems.
::Just keep page protect at an advanced level of scrutiny were user has to earn their rights to engage in discussion. Open up the rest to opening editing.
::What's needed are committees to hand out tasks and assignments to committee members. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''The coup plotters won, for now'']]</sup> 15:22, 6 May 2017 (EDT)
:Conservative, just a reminder, I have two requests, one unrelated to this topic ban. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 22:20, 5 May 2017 (EDT)

If warranted, an admin could tell other admins about a topic ban via email. But in most cases, it would be enforced by the blocker or by other blockers who notice the topic ban on a user's talk page. Also, if needed down the pike, a page called [[Conservapedia: List of users with topic bans]] could be created.

::The main purpose of the topic bans is for editor retention purposes. In certain cases, if topic bans were be used instead of a broader block of editing the entire wiki, the editor would be retained rather than permanently lost or lost for an extended period.

::::It's like being a guidance counsellor, you have to help an editor find his/her/their/its niche, and channel their energies into into it. Some editors may excel at content, other's could have organizational skills serving on a committee to regulate proofreeding, quality control, template and page design, dispute resolution, disciplinary action, policy development, etc etc etc. To build a community, you gotta lift the 90/10 rule to allow user interaction and collaboration.
