| | After discussion and reaching a majority consensus, the change will either be approved for implementation when ready or denied.

| ==== White Alert Definitions ====
| |
| '''Minimum Glimmer (Ψ) level to call code White:''' Ψ800
| |
| | |
| '''Rogue Psion''' - An individual who recklessly uses psionic abilities to the detriment of the station, or refuses to comply with lawful orders to cease using psionic abilities.
| |
| | |
| Psionic Containment - The act of forcefully suppressing psionic abilities. Usually with the injection of Cryptobiolin, potentially administered via the Psionic Mantis' silencing rounds, or through psionically insulative headgear.
| |
| | |
| '''Mindbreaking''' - The act of severing all psionic connection and abilities from an individual, often rendering them catatonic. Should only be performed when absolutely necessary, usually as a capital level punishment (see [[Space Law]] for more details). Unlawful mindbreaking is a capital crime.
