විකිපීඩියා:කරදරකාරයන් වාරණයට සූදානම් පරිපාලකයෝ

To see who on the list is currently active, use this tool

This page has been created in response to the admins who are being threatened and harassed off-site or in real life because of admin actions they have taken on Wikipedia. The real-life harassment is usually possible because admins have inadvertently given out too much personal information about themselves, perhaps incrementally without realizing that an adversary would be able to piece the information together, or because when they first joined Wikipedia, they felt they had no reason to preserve their anonymity.

Although comparatively rare, examples of harassment can include cyberstalking, offline stalking, being outed without their consent, verbal humiliation, threats of physical violence, being contacted at home, threats to family, being contacted at work, dismissal from work, and mocking.

The list below consists of admins who are either certain there is no information on Wikipedia that leads to their real-life IDs, or else who are willing to deal with the consequences that difficult blocks can lead to.

Any admin faced with a disruptive or abusive editor, or who is being threatened because of having previously blocked such a person, can contact one of the admins on this list and request that they take over the case. All the admins on the list have their e-mails enabled so that contact can be made discreetly. In serious cases please contact the volunteer response team directly.

Even if you are on the list yourself, you might still want to ask another admin to take over in a situation where you have been personally threatened and would feel safer if more than one admin were involved. Admins on the list should feel free to remove their names at any point without giving a reason.

Administrators who are on this list and who like userboxes might like to add {{පරිශීලක කරදරකාරයන් වාරණය}} to their user page. This adds the user to Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to make difficult blocks and also the following userbox:

This administrator can, and will, make difficult blocks if needed.

Or use: [[Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to make difficult blocks|{{PAGENAME}}]]
