AdministrationManual:Warning

Warnings in the AspectOS Wiki occur when someone does something bad that is reportable. The admins then review the report and see if this could give the user a warning. Admins may also warn users if an Admin catches an act by themselves.

Why Warnings Exist
There are people who would abuse the powers that they get from the admins. So we are here to control this Wiki and make sure that it is clean. Warnings exist so that users know to follow rules. These warnings can lead up to a Block.

How to Give Warnings
At first, seeing reports and giving warnings is hard, but once you understand all of the steps in giving someone a warning, you get used to it. First, you want to click Recent Changes, located on the sidebar. When you click that, you should see a notice that says that there are unhandled reports. That is how you can view reports. Addittionally, you may find an infraction of the rules by yourself. This can happen, in which

You click the link to the unhandled report and it will give you some details on the user. Such as who is getting reported, when they got reported, and why they got reported. You can also view the report ID as well. For more information on reporting, see Reports.

The following is a template on warning a user on their userpage. However, you may use your own style.

Reportable Acts
If the person has committed an act that is on the "Reportable Acts" list, then you can give the person a warning and handle the report. If the act is not on the "Reportable Acts" list but you think it should be on there, let us know.
