User:NE Ent/Extinct

DRAFT

Any account which has been sited banned for more than three years shall be declared extinct. It may never again be used on Wikipedia, nor can it ever be unbanned. todo add note about evasion? The former users of extinct accounts may restart with a new account. The new account name should be sufficiently different from the extinct account to not allow easy identification. A restarted account is to be treated like any other new account, free of any and all restrictions placed on extinct accounts.

Any attempt to connect new users with an extinct account may be reverted by any editor, and enforced with blocks. Likewise any discussion of the validity of the banning, except part of an aggregate discussion, may be reverted, and editors who pursue discussion after been asked to stop blocked.

Extinct accounts are explicitly exempted from any requirement to disclose prior accounts, including Rfa, functionary, and arbitration committee. Likewise, experience accumulated while editing under an extinct account may not be claimed by the editor.
