Suppression policy: Difference between revisions

Line 25:

[[Stewards]] are the primary users with access to the suppression tool.

~~If required,~~ Stewards ~~are permitted to ''temporarily'' grant themselves~~ suppression access ~~on any wiki.<ref>This is not required for ''viewing'' of suppressed content, which Stewards can always do~~ on all wikis.~~</ref> This is permitted~~ regardless of whether local suppressors exist. However, if local suppressors do exist and have already made a determination with respect to ~~the~~ content, Stewards should respect this decision (unless it is manifestly incorrect).

Stewards always have suppression access on all wikis. They may use this access regardless of whether local suppressors exist. However, if local suppressors do exist and have already made a determination with respect to certain content, Stewards should respect this decision (unless it is manifestly incorrect).

Stewards should not self-grant ''indefinite'' suppression access except when there is local consensus.

Line 34:

* The local suppressor flag may be granted and removed by Stewards only.

* Temporary suppression access will not be granted,<ref>This applies to the technical flag only. Notwithstanding this policy, local communities may create periodic review and confirmation processes for suppressors.</ref> ~~except for Stewards.~~

* Temporary suppression access will not be granted.<ref>This applies to the technical flag only. Notwithstanding this policy, local communities may create periodic review and confirmation processes for suppressors.</ref>

* According to local policies, local suppressors may be appointed either by local consensus or by a local Arbitration Committee or similar body.

* All users applying for local suppression access must either be (a) a local administrator or (b) a member of a local Arbitration Committee or similar body.
