Please check the talk:feces page before deciding if SlimVirgin has behaved properly. She has misrepresented the situation.
At Talk:Feces, we have THOROUGHLY discussed the issue, and public opinion is in FAVOR of including the image. 16 to 10.
Furthermore, if you read her 'pre-screening' message, it is not intended to let consensus emerge. It is intended to exclude me from contributing. Read her words at talk:feces.
The 24 hours is not the end of the world for me. But SlimVirgin has PERMANENTLY blocked two newbies. As far as Wiki editing goes, it IS the end of the world for them.
Well whatever the case, 24 hours of not editing a page on feces isn't going to be the end of the world, is it? "Pre-screening" -- also known as coming to some sort of agreement before getting into or continuing a revert war -- is often an essential way of keeping articles from getting, um, crapped up in the process of disagreement. If a user can't be bothered to discuss changes beforehand with other editors before insisting on re-inserting and reverting contentious information, I think that's a good sign of a problem.
