Lemma 101.3.7. Let $f : \mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{Y}$ be a morphism of algebraic stacks representable by algebraic spaces. Then the following are equivalent

  1. $f$ is locally separated, and

  2. $\Delta _ f$ is an immersion.

Proof. The statements “$f$ is locally separated”, and “$\Delta _ f$ is an immersion” refer to the notions defined in Properties of Stacks, Section 100.3. Proof omitted. Hint: Argue as in the proofs of Lemmas 101.3.5 and 101.3.6. $\square$

f is quasi-separated should read f is locally separated.
