Welcome to your friendly local Constabulary!

Constables, you might find it handy to bookmark this page!

Basic info

To "call a constable," please write constables@citizendium.com

Our list of constables

Constables are available to resolve behavioral--not editorial--disputes and to rein in troublemakers. Please do not criticize other people's behavior on the wiki. Such criticisms may be deleted. Please bring the matter up with the Constabulary.

Since we have stopped self-registration, constables are also (again) reviewing applications and creating new accounts.

Some handy links for constables

A guide to constable procedures

Constables, the following is an informal guide to how to do your job.

For now, see Category:Speedy Deletion Requests and CZ:Article Deletion Policy.

Responding to rude remarks and complaints made on the wiki

Rude remarks shouldn't be tolerated. If a paragraph of text contains personal attacks or other abusive language, constables should replace the whole paragraph (or a series of thus problematic paragraphs) with the {{civil}} template, which generates this message:

Text here was removed by the Constabulary on grounds of civility. (The author may replace this template with an edited version of the original remarks.)

Contributors--authors, editors, and constables--are not permitted to make complaints about other users on the wiki. If a paragraph of text contains any such complaint, constables should replace the whole paragraph with the {{nocomplaints}} template, which generates this message:

A comment here was deleted by The Constabulary on grounds of making complaints about fellow Citizens. If you have a complaint about the behavior of another Citizen, e-mail constables@citizendium.org. It is contrary to Citizendium policy to air your complaints on the wiki. See also CZ:Professionalism.

Making repeated complaints about other users on the wiki can, after warnings, lead to a user's at least temporary removal from the project. Abuse is dealt with much more strictly; see Constabulary Blocking Procedures.

The "constables" mailbox

You should get instructions from another constable about how to access the constables@citizendium.org mailbox.

We would like to keep "Inbox" clean. Most of the folders should be self-explanatory. Do look in and read the contents of "For our reference".

The constables mailing list

If you are a constable, you should be subscribed to this list. Contact Larry Sanger (at present) if you're not.

Anti-vandalism procedures

See Anti-vandalism procedures.
