I went back through the logs to try to discover why Amalekite was banned, and I cannot find a reason <i>on Wikipedia</i> other than statements that boil down to "I disagree with his POV" or "I don't like his edits". I haven't found anything to indicate that this users' edits were in bad faith, even though I would revert or rephrase every one that I've seen.
I've looked a little (but only a little) at the external Stormfront site, and only saw roughly the equivalent of a "watchlist" of people whose POVs are opposite this person's.
I suspect I'm not looking in the right places.
You seem to know better than most people in this discussion exactly why Amalekite was banned. Can you explain it fully for those of us who don't know, or cannot find the reason?
Perhaps you can re-read my previous posting on the list, as well as the postings of those who banned him; I don't see the point in repetition.
By the way, for those who be wondering where the name "Amalekite" comes from, in the Bible, the nation of Amalek was the sworn enemy of the Israelites.
Jay.
