I posted this 4 days ago, which is why I sent three different emails. The auto-reply said that I should give it 12-hours, which I first did, and then I tried again. I still don't agree with the ruling. In my eyes, I didn't break any existing Wiki rules, and I don't like when admins start to interpret the rules and enforce them; and I also don't think that I should have to justify something that did not break the rules. But whatever. I know you guys will never understand.

I think this is a pretty clear case on non-encyclopedic disruption. The disruption policy is intentionally vague. There is no possible way they could have thought up all the ways a person might disrupt our project. Heck, if they listed all the different ways people have historically disrupted our project, it would be so long and useless a list as to be disruptive itself.
My first thought was for you to ad the image in question to a page where it might be apropriate, but that is probably not a good idea at this point either. Having been involved in a few scrapes regarding images others prefered not to see, my advice is to find something elese to do.
You seem interested in Romanian history. Would you perhaps be able to help out w

I know being blocked is annoying and may well make
you angry, but please
don't spam the mailing list with 3 the same
messages. One will do just as
well.
Could you explain why you posted the image on your
userpage to begin with. I
don't see how the image of another user is
relevant to a page about you and
your work.

I have been blocked for displaying a photo on my userpage. The photo in question was of another

I argued that I had the right to display the
photo on
my userpage and that there was nothing in the
policy
that disallowed me from doing so. I also argued
that
the user in question agreed to release the photo
under
GDU at the time when they uploaded the photo.
FeloniousMonk blocked me for 24-hours for
harassment
and disruption. I don't see how I did any of
that by
having the photo displayed on my userpage.
Nowhere in
your policy does it say that we can disrupt by
having
a photo in "good standing" displayed on our
userpage.
I would like to know whether I am in the wrong,
and if
so, why; and I would like to be unblocked. Thank
you.
