But was there something in the editing. People should be free to say FREE TIBET in their user pages, for instance but can be really reasonable editors.
In a way, we are also unbiased and neutral point of view is something we all look upto but can never trully achieve.

Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Re: Blocking users for Palestinian flag
Just seeking clarity:
Is there anything wrong with expressing a political opinion on a userpage?
A lot of our badges, flags, icons might have some or the other political history behind them, just that these are seen as more "normal" by today's standards. At one time, slavery too was considered quite legal.
Can't this be discussed in the public domain?

Dear 4nn1|2,
Thank you for informing us about the incident. But to be clear: You write that it's about a Palestinian flag. Yet actually it's about a flag with a statement: free Palestine. There's a difference. And a member of the Persian Wikipedia removed the deletion request on Commons and kept the file on the same day. I'm not judging anything here, but please be more precise in your accusations.
Thank you,

Dear Wikimedians,
Persian Wikipedia has reached a new level in their arbitrary and nonesense adminship. They have blocked me for placing a Palestinian flag on my userpage (of course they have already removed it from my userpage and you need to see a previous revision of my userpage).
Another user has nominated the file for deletion on Commons!
I am admin on Commons myself and I'm fed up with how fawiki is managed. They block users for the most friviolous reasons.
What does this mean?
Yours faithfully,
User:4nn1l2
