TemplateData for Blocked impersonator

This template may be placed on a user's user page to mark an account as blocked indefinitely for having impersonated or attacked the account of another user. It is often placed with the {{sockpuppet}} template. It should not be substituted.

Template parameters

ParameterDescriptionTypeStatus
1first parameter

Specifies which user has been impersonated and creates a link to that individual's user page if it exists.

Default
Example
XYZ
Auto value
Stringrequired
possiblesecond parameter

If completed with the word 'yes', this will mark the account as only a possible impersonator and will use the wording 'because they are suspected of attempting to impersonate' rather than 'for attempting to impersonate'; being left out or having any other entry results in the template using the stronger, second wording

Default
Example
yes
Auto value
Stringoptional
evidencethird parameter

This parameter allows a user to provide evidence of the suspected impersonation, and will add the text 'as established by' followed by any text entered for the parameter (presumably to a link that shows this evidence)

Default
Example
Auto value
Stringoptional

Example of use for an imaginary account called XYZ being impersonated by another account for which there is evidence of impersonation might be written thus:

{{blocked impersonator|possible=|evidence=this [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ASubstitution%2Fdoc&type=revision&diff=750536073&oldid=750535685 diff]}}
