Sooooo.
Lir, you may have read Brion and Tim Starling answers about you being banned from mailing lists and irc. You are not. Ed also wrote to me, and mentionned that he could see no evidence of you being banned from the mailing lists. He also added that till now, only Jimbo was deciding blocks on the english mailing list (though, I must admit I distinctly remember I blocked someone one day...but oh well...).
Your posts probably do not go through because you may not have any account. This is a public mailing list, *requiring* registration. It is no hassle. Administration of mailing list is a pain, because of the huge amount of spam. It is difficult to "distinguish" the "relevant" mails being blocked by "mistake", from the spam. Be nice to administrators and register please.
In short, you are not banned from the mailing lists, nor are you from irc. As Ed put it "Please sign on and talk with us".
And as I put it "Please, discuss english banning on the english mailing list"
PS : Tim, that makes one ;-)

No, I am not rude; I am banned without reason. I am a victim, and you should respect my arguments that wikijustice has gone haywire.

No. *You* are rude. The wikipedia mailing list is for all wikipedians; poorly-english speaking as well. We do not want them to have to spent time and energy trying to decipher what really is of little if no interest to them. You do not have trouble on any other wikipedias than en. Then, please stick to en per respect for the non english wikipedians.

banning, by simply asking that the discussion be held elsewhere. You should be ashamed of

*Lir, you may have read Brion and Tim Starling answers about you being banned from mailing lists and irc. You are not. **Would that be why, when I log into irc, it says I am banned? Have you considered that they are lying to you? **Would that be why my posts to the English list are not accepted? Obviously, something is wrong at the English Wiki.
*Your posts probably do not go through because you may not have any account. This is a public mailing list, *requiring* registration. **The list does NOT require registration.
*Administration of mailing list is a pain, because of the huge amount of spam. It is difficult to "distinguish" the "relevant" mails being blocked by "mistake", from the spam. **That's not true; that's the same complaint you mediation people made about your task there -- if you can't do the job, resign and let someone do it who is willing to do it. Don't tell me that its too much work to be a supersysop; lots of people would happily do it.
*Be nice to administrators and register please. **05:08, 28 Jun 2004 Guanacohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guanaco blocked "Lir" with an expiry time of 24 hours (use of multiple sockpuppets to edit war) ***I am being nice to you, have I blocked you? Aren't you on the board of Wikimedia; why aren't you at all concerned about sysops blocking other users, over edits wars that the sysop is in, when there is no evidence provided that the blocked user did anything wrong? Once again, if you can't do your job, which involves being concerned about these issues; please resign and let someone else do the it.

Anyone can check the ban list by logging in to irc.freenode.net and typing "/mode #wikipedia b", or some client-specific equivalent.
*Your posts probably do not go through because you may not have any account. This is a public mailing list, *requiring* registration. **The list does NOT require registration.
Yes it does. I just subscribed you, and set your membership to "nomail". Now you'll be able post there without your posts being queued for moderation. Now quit your whinging.

Perhaps the ban of Editing included an IP block as well, and the fact that he was your sockpuppet has resulted in your being banned too?

Well, if there's an IP block, it wasn't put on by #wikipedia operators- it would have been put on by Freenode operators. The only on-channel bans are those listed before- anyone named Creak or anyone with a name beginning with Editing. Channel bans of this sort do NOT translate into IP bans by any method besides a human operator.
Lir, did you get yourself [[K-line]]d?
