User:Gale5050/Proposed new wording
April 05 2021: Owing to the expiry of the set of sanctions implemented on January 25 and March 1 2021 respectively, the following are a new set of sanctions.
Allowed
- Writing or editing any pages related to the subjects of weather, geography, and roads without additional restrictions, if it is in mainspace. For ambiguous cases, Gale is required to ask an admin (e.g. User:Kev).
- Writing one UnNews article per week unrelated to the above three subjects.
- Writing one mainspace article per week unrelated to the above three subjects.
- Editing up to four mainspace, UnNews or other articles not primarily written by Gale5050 per week.
- If Gale5050 wishes to write additional articles, he is limited to doing so in userspace, and must request a pagemove from User:Kev or User:Zombiebaron.
- These rules are not applicable for edits, not page creations, of ±10 bytes in size difference or less. This is to allow Gale to correct typos.
- HOWEVER, regardless of rule exemptions, Gale may not edit a page in mainspace & UnNews, excluding pages not primarily written by himself, solely for the purposes of adding templates, categories and the like (especially {{ICU}}, {{fix}}, {{VFHfailed}} and {{construction}}).
- All of the aforementioned (mainspace & UnNews) articles must contain at least 5,000 bytes, 168 hours after the article's creation.

- Gale5050 may not edit articles below 1,000 bytes without first moving it to userspace following said 7-day period.

- For the purposes of VFH and VFP, Gale is limited to a maximum of 2.0 negative notes (Against ones) per two-week period. This means that, for every fourteen-day period, Gale can either perform 4 negative votes of 0.5 weight, or 2 negative vote of 1.0 weight. This is for VFH and VFP combined.
Already-featured pictures do not count within this quota.

Gale will be assigned a day block for ANY violation of these sanctions detected by an administrator, with a 3 day block for second violations and a week for any further violations of the same offense; if a user chooses to report the offense (at User talk:Kev), and that is how the violation is brought to the attention of the admins, the block times are doubled. Sanctions may be extended at User:Kev and/or User:Zombiebaron's discretion. For less egregious actions, partial blocks may be used, either with or without extensions in sanction duration. These sanctions begin on April 4th, 2021 (23:00 UTC), and remain valid until further notice; currently, this date of invalidation is scheduled to be April 30th, 2021 (23:00 UTC), but this date may be pushed back or moved forward by an admin or a bureaucrat. Following this, a new set of sanctions will be applied; these will either be looser or stricter, depending on Gale's degree of compliance and overall behavior/positive contributions during the course of the "sanction period" these sanctions are applicable, and what other users(not Gale5050)think. Parole officers reserve the right to modify these sanctions at any time, without the discretion of any other users. For any other details, please contact parole officer.
