I do not see what community this is being controlled by; 1. there are no notice boards, or request for administrators, like they have in other wiki’s etc.. 2. there is no arbitration committee, or problems resolution section to go to, etc.. 3. there are no open rules on blocking. 4. there is no unblocking feature, and yet there is a review page. https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Category:Requests_for_unblock
5. there is nothing in place to review an administrators abuse of there blocking powers etc.. 6. for newbies there is no active user talk page to request an unblock and if you try, to that gets blocked to.
7. there is no OTRS.
This person sent this mail today to multiple mailing lists, to some of them twice.
Cheers Yaroslav

That is not so. There is:
https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Wikivoyage:Travellers%27_pub
which serves the purpose of a general noticeboard; it also lists several other more specific venues.
It is not necessary for smaller projects to have the number of noticeboards - let alone the overall bureaucracy - that are used by larger projects.
If the OP has a /specific/ issue they should raise it on the above page. If blocked, they should use their own talk page, pinging the blocking admin.
Is this a general observation or is there some specific point I am missing here? Cheers, Peter
