That is presumption of innocence which is totally forgotten
* blocking is done without AC consideration first to the case
* reverting of dozen of edits is made, regardless of the quality of the
edits; in effect blind reversion resulted in
** removing perfectly accurate categories, which resulted in people
losing time to put them back
** restoring spelling mistake that the banned user had corrected
* letting RK go wild again on ethical topic.
I understand why Heaph blocked the guy, but in effect
=>consequence number 1 (block) is saying "we do not trust AC to do what
it should o"
=>consequence number 2 : deliberate impoverishment of the encyclopedia
(reinsertion of mistake to enforce a ban) plus addition of work load for
Bryan Derksen and I, who had to revert back the reversion, to restore
the good edits manually
=>consequence number 3 : RK is removing again whole parts of articles,
plus adding very unnice comments, which are irritating me *greatly*.
I feel like censorship from RK is on its way again. And I do not think
this is good.
I think this is just plain bad.
