Dan, with respect, I'd advise you to review all the diffs carefully
before posting further. It will take you awhile, but you'll see for
yourself that what you're saying is demonstrably false and misleading.
I've already apologized for my earlier confrontational tone and
failure to assume good faith. I'll try from now on to stick to facts
and logical opinions, not assumptions and grudges.
Thank you.
Nevertheless, and even after looking at more materials on that
particular user, I still think his permanent ban was an overreaction.
He was very disruptive. Talk pages he posted on were regularly full of
personal attacks. He tried to out me several times (he believes I'm
User:Danny). There were lots of WP:POINTs, such as, when asked for a
citation for an edit, going to other articles the requester had edited
and peppering them with a dozen or more fact tags (for things like
Auschwitz being an extermination camp). He was only banned after many,
many warnings. Even the editors who initially supported his edits
ending up distancing themselves from him.
