Notice of obsolescence:
Community sanctions in this area of conflict have been revoked or have expired. As a result, this community sanctions-related page is now obsolete, is retained only for historical reference, and should not be modified. For the specific community decision that rescinded or modified these community sanctions, see

A community discussion at the administrators' noticeboard (incidents branch) has established general sanctions for edits relating to the term "British Isles". 12:35, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
The existence of these sanctions was affirmed during a December 2015 discussion at the administrators' noticeboard. 17:51, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
Any editor who systematically adds or removes the term "British Isles" from multiple articles without clear sourcing and justification, or who edit-wars over such addition or removal, may be added to the list of topic-banned editors.
For the purpose of adding users to the list, as well as imposing and enforcing restrictions under this provision, an administrator should be uninvolved. An administrator will be considered "uninvolved" if he or she is not engaged in a current, direct, personal conflict on the topic with the user receiving sanctions (note: enforcing this provision will not be considered to be participation in a dispute). Sanctions imposed under this provision may be appealed to the imposing administrator, the appropriate administrators' noticeboard, or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators are not to reverse such sanctions without either (1) approval by the imposing administrator, or without (2) community consensus or Committee approval to do so. All sanctions imposed are to be logged below.
Types of sanctions that may be used:
Log any topic bans and restrictions that are imposed; duplicates should be avoided. All restrictions will be enforced by blocks. Note: All sanctions imposed so far have been of indefinite durations - per discussion of this probation on ANI.
Log user name and any action taken with regards to this probation. Where a ban is lifted, the entry may not be removed - it may be striken, with a separate entry of name of admin or diff where ## was lifted; basis for removing from list; diff of notification to user. As with all pages, use common sense. The following information should be proved:
