Ah, but there is one circumstance in which such accessing of Wikipedia is not an illegal act. That is when its purpose is to stop Wikipedia committing an illegal act upon you. Wikipedia is committing an illegal act upon me by trying to ignore my citation, made by email to Jimmy Wales as well as on this list, for it to the remove every word I have ever contributed to Wikipedia, on grounds of copyright violation and ides theft, and ensure they stay removed despite the public editability of pages. Unless you can demonstrate that the second requirement is technically possible, then the continued existence of Wikipedia has been proved entirely illegal.
Anything Skyring is doing that his block blocks him from doing, to raise awareness of the way he has been treated and seek due process concerning it, is automatically legal. Anything I do to raise awareness in the other editors of every page I've contributed to, of the violatuion they are dealing with, is automatically legal.
Everying you contributed was relised uner the GFDL. We correctly credit you. You have no case.
