Wikipedia:General sanctions/South Asian social groups

A 2012 community discussion at the administrators' noticeboard placed all pages about social groups, explicitly including caste associations and political parties related to India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal under community discretionary sanctions.

Subsequent enforcement tended to treat this sanction more akin to the "related to X, broadly construed" wording seen in most other sanctions. A 2023 discussion at the administrators' noticeboard found no objection to formalizing existing de facto practice, expanding the sanctions' scope to pages related to South Asian social groups, broadly construed.

Sanctions imposed cannot be undone by another administrator without approval of the sanctioning administrator or an appeal at the administrators' noticeboard. Pages may be tagged with {{Gs/talk notice|sasg}}, which can be used to indicate that articles are within the scope of these sanctions. Prior to being sanctioned, editors can be notified of these sanctions with the {{subst:Gs/alert|sasg}} template. Use the {{subst:Community sanction}} template when imposing sanctions. For blocks, use {{subst:Uw-csblock}}.

Log blocks, topic bans or other administrative actions here. Include diff of username, action-date-time-duration etc, diffs of any evidence, administrator user name.
Admins: Please move the sanction to the bottom of the expired section once it has expired.

Add the following text replacing the text in all caps with the necessary info:
