Wikipedia:General sanctions/COVID-19

Notice of obsolescence:
Community sanctions in this area of conflict have been superseded by an Arbitration Committee sanctions regime. As a result, this community sanctions-related page is now obsolete, is retained only for historical reference, and should not be modified. For more information about Arbitration Committee sanctions, see this page. For the specific Committee decision that rescinded or modified these community sanctions, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/COVID-19 (closed on 16 June 2021). All enforcement requests should go to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard and logging should be done at the arbitration enforcement log.

This page is a log for a community-authorised discretionary sanctions regime. It is used to record notifications issued and sanctions imposed under that regime, as specified below. Changes to this page must adhere to the discretionary sanctions procedure.

Shortcut WP:GS/COVID19

This community discussion at WP:AN has placed pages related to COVID-19, broadly construed, under indefinite general sanctions, effective 20:49, 17 March 2020 (UTC).

• A community discussion here resulted in the "Application notes" section below.

Pages with discretionary sanctions in effect can be tagged with {{Gs/talk notice|covid}} and an editnotice with {{COVID19 GS editnotice}} may be created. To alert editors of a community-authorized discretionary sanction in effect, use {{subst:Gs/alert|topic=covid}}. To inform editors of a community sanction, use {{subst:Community sanction|sanction=|rationale=|topic=covid}} and if blocks are issued, {{subst:Uw-csblock}}. All individual sanctions and page restrictions must be logged below.

Sources for any content related to medical aspects of the disease are expected to adhere to the standards laid down at WP:MEDRS. Since this is a rapidly evolving area with instances already documented of poor or fraudulent research, preprints and other non-peer-reviewed sources should not be used.

Editors are reminded that the onus is on the editor seeking to include disputed content to achieve consensus for its inclusion. Any content or source removed in good faith and citing a credible policy-based rationale should not be reinstated without prior consensus on the article's talk page.
