I don't recall that information being included in my block notification. In other words, I had no way of knowing if my ban was for 10 days or permanent or what.
Even in light of this I'm still glad I protested. I'm very used to the censorship that is endemic throughout western society when the subject is frank discussion of racial nationalism in general, and white nationalism in particular.
I'm quite fed up with this thoroughly contemptible behavior, and I intend to fight it whenever possible, as it is with Wikipedia. I don't intend to spread my p.o.v. all over Wikipedia - the entries on racial nationalism and white nationalism are all I'm interested in.
As I stated in the discussion page, I don't expect the entry to become a WNist tract. I DO expect it to be, as the Wikipedia guidlines suggest, from a "neutral" and "sympathetic" p.o.v. I DO expect it to fairly present WNist beliefs as held by WNs themselves, rather than present a anti-WN p.o.v. I DO expect it to contain relevant links and sources for those interested in learning more about WNism from a WN p.o.v., rather than the usual second-hand biased crap which is prevalent in the media. Did I say "prevalent?" I meant to say "endemic," or perhaps "axiomatic."
I think some people need to reread the Wikipedia guidelines, since I seem to be more familiar with them than they.

Would it *really* trouble you to wait for the block to expire on its own? Blocks default to 24 hours for a reason- it's rather short, considering. What is the particular urgency in ths situation? _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@Wikipedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
