{{page in a nutshell|Users may be blocked from editing by an administrator to protect Pensapedia and its editors from harm.|align=center}}
'''Blocking''' is the method by which [[Pensapedia:Administrators|administrators]] may technically prevent users from editing [[Pensapedia]]. Blocks are used to prevent damage or disruption to Pensapedia, not to punish users.<ref>Blocks are not punitive in the sense that they aren't retribution. Blocks sometimes are used as a deterrent, to discourage whatever behavior led to the block and encourage a productive editing environment.</ref>
