Template:Blocked/doc

This template can be used to notify a user who has been blocked. This template doesn't have to be used any time a user is blocked, but it is often helpful for them if they're notified and provided with information about what they can and can't do.

Note: Only administrators can block users, simply placing this template on a non-blocked user's talk page does not block the user from editing.

Parameters
- When this is set to anything (e.g, IP=y), the text will display as if the block was for an IP rather than a registered account. Specifically, "This account has been blocked" will be changed to "This IP has been blocked." - Specifies the time the user is blocked for. Examples of how it should be formatting include "2 hours," "1 week," "3 months," or "indefinitely." - Specifies a short reason for the block, such as "Vandalism" or "Sockpuppetry." - Allows for a custom message longer than the reason - multiple sentences can be used for this parameter if needed. For simple blocks, such as blatant vandalism, this parameter probably won't be necessary, but it's useful if the blocking admin wants to give an in-depth explanation.
