Given that admins are supposed to follow wikipedia policy ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ADMINABUSE#Administrator_conduct), I'd suggest that it the admins who have failed to do this that are the liability to the project. I am very concerned that many seem to get away with flouting policy, and it seems very rare that admin access is taken away from admins that do this. I believe my edits speak for themselves as to why I am an asset to the project, and also the fact that I follow Wikipedia's policies, as well as contribute to a wide range of articles.
Regards, Ed

My last 2 or 3 unblock requests have explained that the procedures mentioned in the guideline were not followed, so surely the block should not stand, should it?
I really hope there's more to your request for unblocking than "the procedures...were not followed". I would focus on explaining why exactly you're an asset to the project, rather than a liability. Nitpicking admins won't get you far (I hope).
