Statement of problem
Please be brief and specific in your request (polar questions are best) and add relevant links if available. Please state a time frame in which you expect a decision.
While it is relatively clear how Citizenship is acquired upon registration to the project, the case is less clear for when Citizenship would end. Details are up to the Management Council, and I am planning to send them the notes made on this page. --Daniel Mietchen 09:45, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
Formal restatement of problem
This section defines the section structure of the decision.
Existing applicable policy
Charter

- Article 3: Citizens shall not have their application to join or their use of the site blocked or terminated on the basis of their nationality, ethnicity, race, religion, creed, gender, sexuality, profession, education, politics, residence, age, name, or URL. Nor shall any official or governing body of the Citizendium discriminate in favor or against Citizens (except to the degree that such discrimination promotes editorial expertise), or any dispute be resolved, on the basis of any of these criteria.

Citizens who interfere with another Citizen's rights as delineated by this Charter or who violate rules established by either the Management or Editorial Councils shall be subject to administrative action upon complaint of the aggrieved Citizen, the punishment of which may include, but is not limited to, suspension from the Citizendium for a period of time, or permanent expulsion.
