This document is mostly for [[admin]] because it '''shows how to block and unblock''' other users from editing.
This document is mostly for [[admin]] because it '''shows how to block and unblock''' other users from editing. If you're a user who has been blocked by Tardis staff, you probably want to read [[Help:I'm blocked]], instead.
==What to do if you're blocked ==
If you are a '''''user''''' who is experiencing a block, please take note of these two things:
* You may be blocked because your IP is within a range of blocked addresses.  In other words, an admin here might ''not'' have blocked you specifically; you're just unluckily trying to reach the wiki from a "bad" IP.  If the blocking reason you're seeing doesn't match your actions, and particularly if this is your first visit to Tardis, please go to [[Special:Contact]] and fill in a report to Wikia staff.  They'll be able to help determine what's going wrong for you.
* If you've been blocked for something you've done here, and an admin tells you that your block has been lifted, but you still can't edit, try [[Help:Bypass your cache|bypassing your browser's cache]].  Most browsers do not automatically update your banned status.  If that's not working, go to [[community:User talk:CzechOut]] or [[community:User talk:Tangerineduel]] and leave a message.
* If you've been specifically blocked by an admin for a rules violation — and if you've been specifically blocked, that's what's happened — please proceed to [[Help:I'm blocked]] for an understanding of the further options you have.


This page gives the general Wikia help page on how to ''perform'' a block.  Scroll down a bit for that.  First, though, a little local advice about how to properly un-block registered accounts.
