  Not all admins are equal? Animal Farm anyone? Kelly Martin is more equal then others, everyone bow to him! Your comments about Erik's blocking (which was obviously a bad mistake on the part of Danny) were in very bad taste and does not indicate that you are more interested in the well-being of the encyclopaedia than thrash other people.
   
  You not only support the blocking, you support CONTINUED blocking of one of Wikipedia's most valuable contrbutors (far more valuable than you) because of what was at most a failure to discuss a revertion of a protection before doing it. I believe one revertion is perfectly okay for a normal editorial action, whatever happened to [[WP:BOLD]]? And as Danny explicitly removed the [[WP:OFFICE]] notice (which makes it quite clear than the tag must be used to invoke the special powers of the policy), Erik had every reason to assume that it was nothing but an ordinary editorial action.
   
  Even if Erik should have discussed the revertion, is it ground for any punishment, let alone desysoping and indefinite blocking? His action may have increased chance of harm to the Foundation, but the liability lies with Danny and not Erik. In writing such a vindictive and ill-thought comment about Erik, you behaved like a shark drawn to blood and showed an utter disrespect towards fellow community members. You should immediately apologise, but knowing you you probably won't.
