Template:TOCright

This template warns people on the talk page that arbitration discretionary sanctions have been authorised. Discretionary sanctions allow administrators to act quickly and decisively to prevent misconduct.

The template requires you to declare which arbitration decision authorised discretionary sanctions, by specifying a #decision code.

You should place the template at the top of the talk page, below the header (if used) but above all other templates.

The template places the page into Category:Wikipedia pages under discretionary sanctions or Category:Wikipedia pages with discretionary sanctions editnotice depending on usage unless nocat=yes is included.

Use

You may use this on the article talk page. You may also use it in an article edit notice for general information; however, edit notices about a special "page restriction" deployed under discretionary sanctions should instead be advertised using the special {{Ds/editnotice}} template.

{{Ds/talk notice|code}}
{{Ds/talk notice|code|brief or long}}
Parameter Values Behaviour
|1= (or |topic=) code: Choose from #Decision codes below; e.g. |topic=tt for The Troubles. Determines which arbitration final decision will be linked to.
|2= (or |style=) brief or long; see #Styles for what each looks like. Determines whether the longer or shorter form will be displayed. Optional; defaults to |style=brief.
|restriction= Custom text or 1RR Custom text used to define a sanction. |restriction=1RR can be specified to insert "You must not make more than one revert per 24 hours on this article." Optional.

Template:Uw-sanctions/usage

If an article has sanctions but doesn't fit into one of the above topic areas, this template is unsuitable. Use {{sanctions}} instead.
