| Rich Farmbrough | Editing restriction | Regardless of the editing method (i.e. manual, semi-automatic, or automatic; from any account), Rich Farmbrough is indefinitely prohibited from making cosmetic changes to wikicode that have no effect on the rendered page (excepting those changes that are built-in to stock AWB or those that have demonstrable consensus or BAG approval). This includes but is not limited to: changing templates to template redirects, changing template redirects to templates (see here for AWB stock changes on this item, with the understanding that bypassing template redirects will only be done when there is a substantive edit being done), changing the spacing around headers and ordered lists (except to make an aberration consistent with the rest of the page), and changing the capitalization of templates. Furthermore, prior to orphaning/emptying and deleting categories or templates, the appropriate processes (WP:CFD/WP:TFD) should be engaged. | Sanction imposed per this AN discussion, to be enforced by escalating blocks | 2010-10-26? | Indefinite |

Any such changes desired must be proposed on the appropriate talk page, and may only be enacted by other parties.

| Creation restriction | Regardless of the editing method (i.e. manual, semi-automatic, or automatic; from any account), Rich Farmbrough is indefinitely prohibited from mass creating pages in any namespace, unless prior community approval for the specific mass creation task is documented. The definition of "mass creation" and the spirit of the restriction follows Wikipedia:BOTPOL#Mass article creation. | Sanction imposed following this ANI discussion and the prior editing restriction, to be enforced by escalating blocks | 2011-01-13? | Indefinite | |

Additionally, in order to affect a timely halt to any disruptive behavior arising from this topic ban administrators may at their discretion adopt a 1RR position for any mathematical article Hesselp has edited or contributed to provided that there is clear evidence of disruptive behavior from the editor. This topic ban shall be in effect until community consensus at ANI or ARBCOM rule otherwise. | ANI Discussion | 2017-11-07 | Indefinite |

| Mbz1, Gilisa , Factsontheground | Interaction ban | Mbz1 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and Gilisa (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) are collectively and individually banned from interacting with Factsontheground (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), and Factsontheground is reciprocally banned from interacting with Mbz1 and Gilisa. This editing restriction shall include a complete prohibition from comments on the respective user talk pages, filing reports on admin noticeboards, reverting edits on articles, commenting in other venues about the other party, or directly responding to each other's comments on article talk pages. This restriction by itself does not prohibit mutual participation on articles, as long as the editors stay away from each other. The restriction is to be interpreted broadly. |
If any of the parties feel that the other party has violated this ban or other Wikipedia policy, and no uninvolved administrator responds to the violation within a reasonable amount of time, they may notify 1 uninvolved administrator of the incident on that administrators' talk page 12 hours after the original perceived infraction, and if that first administrator does not respond by at least acknowledging seeing the report within 24 hrs they may notify a second uninvolved administrator in the same manner, but in no case more than 2 notifications on-wiki. Repeated spurious reports to administrators using this mechanism shall be grounds for blocking for disruption. Imposed by community consensus. Note: User:Factsontheground renamed to User:Factomancer shortly after imposition of this restriction. |

This applies everywhere on Wikipedia and explicitly includes all dispute resolution venues but excludes minimal mentions when required for context in discussions of their (DTParker1000's) conduct and appeals of this topic ban.
This ban may be enforced by escalating blocks. It may be appealed after six months of active editing since enactment or the most recent unsuccessful appeal. The intent of "six months of active editing" is so that extended absences don't count towards the six months, it is not a requirement for six consecutive months of active editing. |
