I'm just going to go copy and paste the reply I made a few minutes ago on your thread in my message wall: Hi! He bypassed the filter to say a racial slur. I have a zero tolerance policy for any sort of racial slur, and as such I feel like a longer block length is more appropriate (Wikia also prohibits editors from "Post(ing) or transmit(ing) any content that is obscene, ... abusive, offensive, profane, ... or content that contains homophobia, ethnic slurs, religious intolerance,..." in their Terms of Service).

I understand that the N-word is very controversial and might not be considered a slur to many people, but at the same time I do not want people to believe that we tolerate people posting content like that on the wiki. Initially, I unblocked him, as I assumed The_JoTS addressed the contribution containing the slur in his warning. He told me on the admin Discord channel that he didn't know of the slur contribution, and as a result of it I reinstated the block. Before that, I asked the online admins if a 3-month block sounded OK, and I got no response. Personally, I feel like three months is still considered a "short" block for a major Terms of Use violation, but I want to see what the consensus is and will certainly adjust it if needed.
