[WikiEN-l] request that Ed Poor's sysop powers be frozen

Dan,

I just brought the same issue up on wikipedia-l. As I (User:Eloquence) noted
on the Talk page to [[Richard Wagner]], I agree that Ed's use of sysop
powers in this matter is unacceptable, and I remember a similar incident where Ed
was accused of wrongly protecting a page. He seems to be the only sysop who
regularly does so.

I still think Ed is, in general, trustworthy. He has, so far, done a good
job of clueing in newbies and reverting obvious vandalism. In spite of some of
his rather extreme viewpoints, he usually manages to stay on the right side
of NPOV.  If he can agree to a more narrow definition of sysop
responsibilities than the one he currently seems to follow, I have no problem with him
holding these privileges.

Regards,

Erik (non-sysop and proud of it ;-)
