+View and resolve abuse reports from GitLab users.
+
+Admins can view abuse reports in the admin area and are able to
+resolve the reports by removing the reported user, blocking the reported user, or removing the report.
+
+## Reporting abuse
+
+To find out more about reporting abuse, see [abuse reports user documentation](../abuse_reports.md).
+
+## Resolving abuse reports
+
+To access abuse reports, go to **Admin area > Abuse Reports**.
+
+There are 3 ways to resolve an abuse report, with a button for each method:
+
+- Remove user & report: [Deletes the reported user](../profile/account/delete_account.md) from the instance and removes the abuse report from the list.
+- Block user: Blocks the reported user from the instance and does not remove the abuse report from the list.
+- Remove report: Removes the abuse report from the list and does not restrict the access for the reported user.
+

+
+## Blocked users
+
+Blocking a user will not remove the abuse report from the list.
+
+Instead, the block button will be disabled and explain that the user is "Already blocked".
+You are still able to remove the user and/or report if necessary.
