Lisa, perhaps I didn't make this clear enough: I didn't block him. SlimVirgin has already said if you disagree with the block please write to SlimVirgin or Homeontherange, because they are the blocking admins; this, in fact, is the protocol if you disagree with a block. I'm sure they'd welcome an e-mail from you. Jay.

Amalekite certainly was encouraging people to edit Wikipedia to remove what he perceived to be bias. At least initially, he was specifically asking people to follow NPOV, avoid personal attacks and insults, and generally follow the rules. He did post a list of users he believed were part of a "Zionist cabal" along with a few insults ("vicious", "ruthless" and "idiots"). And after he was banned, he did start speculating about edit warring over a long period. That's only from one thread (http://www.stormfront.org/forum/showthread.php?t=225536). He might have said more elsewhere, but from that thread, I don't think there's evidence he was inciting disruption of Wikipedia before he was banned. I would argue that the blocking admin(s) would have done well to document exactly why this user was banned, complete with URLs, because it's darn hard to find the evidence. -- Matt Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Matt_Crypto Blog: http://cipher-text.blogspot.com ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?
