Usage rules
Version 1.1 - written, published and versioned before launch
A sanction can only rest on a numbered rule existing at the time of the facts: no retroactive application, no rule invoked by word of mouth.
By submitting, the author states they hold the rights to their content and place it under the CC BY-SA 4.0 licence; they undertake to infringe no law and no third-party right, trademark law in particular.
Offences and sanctions
| Rule | Offence | Possible sanctions |
|---|---|---|
| R1 | Spam: repeated submission of content unrelated to the Dolibarr ecosystem. | warning, hiding, temporary suspension, permanent suspension |
| R2 | Impersonation or sheet usurpation: claiming someone else's project or identity. | hiding, temporary or permanent suspension, sheet transfer |
| R3 | Unlawful content. | immediate withdrawal, permanent suspension, report to the competent authorities |
| R4 | Misleading link: destination at odds with the label, shortener hiding the destination. | refusal of the announcement, warning, hiding |
| R5 | Priority queue abuse: article flagged security without a security subject. | warning, priority loss, temporary suspension |
| R6 | Infringement of third-party rights: content the author does not hold the rights to, or infringing a trademark, a trade name or a logo. | immediate withdrawal, warning, temporary or permanent suspension |
| R7 | Duplicate: announcement of a version already proposed, under review or published. | refusal of the announcement |
Gradation
From lightest to heaviest: warning, article hiding, temporary suspension, permanent suspension. Every moderation act is logged with the rule invoked and its reason; the author concerned has a written avenue of appeal.
Report a content
Every announcement and every sheet carries a report link, open without an account. The report is private: it goes to the moderation team, appears nowhere on the site, and the author of the content never learns who reported it. It is not a breach: the team reads, then decides, and any act taken rests on one of the rules above.
