Currently, the Office Actions page states that the WMF will terminate the accounts of any user whose content accrues multiple DMCA takedowns (or who repost content that is subject to a DMCA takedown). Does "terminate" in these cases refer to a global lock, a full WMF global ban, or something else entirely?

Within the section Policy:Office actions#Use of advanced rights by Foundation staff, the "Page protection" information references a {{reset}} template which does not exist (on the English Wikipedia, at least, as well as the couple randomly-selected projects I checked). On the English Wikipedia, the correct template would be {{pp|reset}}. Tollens (talk) 02:55, 14 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
