Why did you endorse my block if this is the case? The block was enacted
solely on the ruling in the MONGO case and was applied to my reverting to
a
version of a page that contained a reference to
Wikipedia Review. If
there
was no arbitration ruling that relates to
Wikipedia Review, how is the
justification for my block valid? Why did you support it?
I didn't read the link right. In this case the link might be fine,
although Wikipedia Review is down right now. I don't support broad
generalization of the MONGO case. Glad we cleared that up. Maybe we can
resolve this. Who is it that thinks someone can be blocked for a link to
Wikipedia Review based on the MONGO case?

Heh, okay... everyone makes mistakes.
See [
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Essjay_controversy&diff=prev&…]
this edit I made, and my talk page [
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:KamrynMatika&oldid=…]
following it.
It seems that (in this case) ElinorD and Crum375 believe that it is OK to
block an editor for adding a link to Wikipedia Review. In this case, the
link pertained to the article as it linked to a thread on Wikipedia Review
where Essjay's deception was first brought to light, and (in my opinion)
it's quite relevant. I was warned for adding the link, based on the MONGO
ruling, and then blocked when I ignored the warning (my bad there I guess).
Is this or is this not appropriate? Thanks.
Yes, it was appropriate. The MONGO case was quite clear when we voted
on it, and the vote was unanimous:
"A website that engages in the practice of publishing private
information concerning the identities of Wikipedia participants will
be regarded as an attack site whose pages should not be linked to from
Wikipedia pages under any circumstances."
