Yours is an attitude which does a disservice to Wikipedia and which is why I myself no longer edit but do follow this list for these sorts of incidient so I can document them.
You simply neglect the valid "FACT" and wrap it up in formal nonsense. It's completely and highly irresponsible IE: Someone gets killed by a person you have in hand, a relative of that person screams and complains and generally acts stupid. Instead of looking at the FACTS you look at the the relative and simply say. I can't do anything for you, you're acting like an asshole. This may be fine in social situations where one is doing the other a favor but when it involves things like the truth and facts and/or general scientific method it has no place.
If it's a fact. IT IS A FACT! How both of you can argue over the other stuff and negate the facts is amazing!!
The real discussion should be is what the editor saying FACT? If not then he's a vandal, if so, The Administrators have abused their power, as this has happened to me in relation to the Lou Dobbs Article I am extremely biased but so far and doing this research over the last couple of months. Wikipedia Administrators are the problem.

I've yet to see where these are connected to the user who protested to us. Perhaps that is the problem, your willingness to jump at shadows and underlying hostility to anyone who doesn't genuflect "just so" towards you.
While I do value your opinions, I will be frank on this count: I don't trust you to be neutral.
I openly challenge you to take a dig through my postings to this mailing list, and back up your claims of my behavior and attitudes. Go for it. If you can find evidence that I've been serially abusing the few powers and positions of trust the community has seen fit to grant me, by all means, bring it to my attention. I have no qualms with specific and reasonable complaints grounded in fact.
In this case, I'm not the only user who suspects block evasion. One IP address is blocked for trolling and general disruption, a second IP address comes onto the scene and begins making the exact same reverts -- hardly a stretch of the imagination, here.
Again, as you seem to be concerned by what's happened. I have no objection if you desire to pursue this on your own.
