Voting:Admin Team/Dealing with Sockpuppets - Passed

So in light of the revelations on chat today, it seems clear that we need to take a look at how we deal with definitive sockpuppets on our wiki. In light of this necessity, I have come up with the following plan for dealing with sockpuppetry on our wiki. Windsword7 Let the magic begin

Circumstance Number 1: If a user is using another account because of issues related to their original account, that user needs to notify a bureaucrat or administrator to have the nonfunctional account blocked or deactivated. Failure to do so will result in a first warning for the original account and a blocking of the sock.

Circumstance Number 2: If a user is using another account aside from the reason listed in the previous circumstance but is not using it for malevolent intentions or is not him/herself a malevolent user, the sock account will simply be blocked and the original account may receive a first warning at the discretion of an admin.

Circumstance Number 3: If a user is using another account for malevolent purposes such as vandalism, escaping blocks/kickbans, or creating more characters, both the original and the sockpuppet account will be blocked at the discretion of the administrator.
