If anybody recognizes this email address as coming from me originally (User:RickK), I would just like to say that the person calling themself User:RickK2 currently editing on Wikipedia is NOT me. Since my account has been locked from my access, I have no other way to address this problem. RickK
R.,
Thanks for your note. I've forwarded it, with headings, to the ArbCom. Hopefully this can get straightened out.

I've done some anonymous editing here and there, but I doubt I'll be doing anything major.

That is genuinely nice to hear. The first part, not the latter one. There was a time when we needed tireless warriors for quality, and against the yahoos (the wild and crazies, not the competitor to google ;). The community now is so robust, that it no longer needs such superheros as you were back then. Personally I felt a good deal of hidden satisfaction when I was unceremoniously stripped of my admin rights on the Finnish Wikipedia (my real home wiki), and the next day came as it always did, with a sun rising and all.
