Is there a policy or even guidance on how admins are to weigh the impact on the project of blocks affecting large numbers of contributors?
Under the current system blocks appear to be ad-hoc, sometimes punitive, applied for arbitrary time periods, and under the radar unless one is skilled in sussing out edit summaries and technical logs. In addition I have documented the existence of hard blocks, whereby it is impossible for well-intentioned users to even request an account. This is contrary to policy.
