Wikipedia page on how to deal with threats of physical danger

If you see a threat of physical harm (including self-harm):

1. 1. Treat all claims seriously
2. 2. Contact the Wikimedia Foundation
3. 3. Contact Wikipedia administrators privately
   • Use email, IRC, Discord, or other low-visibility methods, not noticeboards or talk pages.
   • If in doubt, the primary method is to use IRC and join the #wikipedia-en-revdel ^connect channel. To do this quickly and using your browser, click here: Join IRC channel.
   • Alternatively, you may email the oversight team at oversight-en-wpwikipedia.org. Even if the threat does not need suppression, oversighters can apply revision deletion and other administrative actions as needed.
   • If you need to find an administrator who is active on Wikipedia right now, you can use this tool to locate one.
   • Administrators may contact other administrators using the same steps as above, especially if they need advice on how to respond.

• Threats of suicide or other self-harm require discretion on the question of blocking but generally, specific threats should be removed (with a thoughtfully worded edit summary) and revision deleted, pending oversight.
• Threats against others should be met with blocking (generally including removal of talk page access) and possibly blocking email as well. Such threats should be blanked; consider applying revdel as well.
• Request oversight (suppression) of any post containing personal information.
• If in doubt, email the office at emergencywikimedia.org; stay off high-traffic noticeboards.
