Yes, since a few of the Wikipedias you removed weren't because they were old or because they failed, but because you decided they were "rediculous".

Hi Wouter,
"Thought police" refers not to your removal of requests, but rather your removal of individual comments. Which you did do.
and "censor" did refer to removing requests as far as I can judge.

Dear fellow list subscribers,
Yesterday I had the unpleasant experience that Mark Williamson scolded
me
for "Censor" and "Thought police". The reason was that I had deleted
some of
the requests on the Requests for new languages page on meta (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages), and subsequently he placed most of them back, along with some other ones
that
had been removed by long, and not by me.
As a matter of facts, I got /furious/ and if Mark had stood right before
me
I would have spit into his face. Later however, he eludicated the reason
why
he placed them back, and we seem to agree on more things than I thought
at
first. The page /is/ really getting overloaded with requests and becomes
too
long. The difference was, he wanted to keep them anyway.
I may opinion, the right solution is to cut-and-paste them to an
archive,
newly to be created. I could very well create it right now, but thanks
to
Mark's great action I am unsure whether this wil be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Incompetent, inautoritive censor and thought police Wouter Steenbeek.
Btw: it seems perhaps a little inappropriate to discuss this meta topic
on
the Wikipedia mailing list, but since the topic is realted to the
creation
of new Wikipedias I took the liberty to post it here.
