The Cedar Fair Wiki:Blocking Policy

Blocking is the act of preventing a user account or IP address from editing on The Cedar Fair Wiki. Block duration varies on the severity of the vandalism. The blocking policy may be modified over time.

Good Faith Mistakes
Everyone makes minor mistakes, and many people understand. If such an edit is published that does not violate wiki rules or policies, the user may receive a message as a minor reminder. If the mistake is recurring with ignorance of the warning or without asking for permission, the user will be blocked based upon the severity of the edit.

Vandalism
A warning will not be provided for a user who commits vandalism on this wiki. This includes, but is not limited to deletion of true content, insertion of false information, nonsense and gibberish, and creating pages that are not relevant to the topic of the wiki. A user who vandalizes will be blocked for a minimum of one month as a first offense. Repeated violations will result in an indefinite block.

Move Vandalism
Move vandalism is the act of renaming the title of an article to a nonsensical or inappropriate name. This will result in immediate lifetime block.

Spam
Irrelevant spam is not tolerated on this wiki. Spam includes advertising, self-promotions, and external links to irrelevant websites. A user will receive a lifetime block with no warning.

Inappropriate Account Names
Creating inappropriate account names that offend others is not condoned. They will be banned infinitely, possibly without warning.

Disruption
If a user disrupts a wiki (whether it be making misleading edits or harassing other users) they will be blocked for a minimum of one month.

Copyright Violation
