[WikiEN-l] Requesting assistance re user:Bastique

[Sharon, Lois Bram]

Hello,

I need to request assistance with an issue I am having with an administrator
who, for whatever reason, feels the need to be abusive and problematic
towards me. This is the first time I'm encountering something like this, the
rest of the time people have been extremely helpful, especially when I
didn't know how to fix something on the page for pixar's Cars film and they
helped troubleshoot a problem I saw with one of the images going over text.

What is going on is at the [[National Council of La Raza]] page. I saw that
there was an editing dispute there, editors disagreeing over the content of
the page and the nature of the group. I've been reading the sources supplied
by the various sides and it seems the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

However, user:Bastique saw fit to revert to a version he preferred, and then
semiprotected the page. This seems to be at odds with the protection policy
and admin policies which state that admin powers should not be used to win a
content dispute.

I reverted the page, and left a note on the talk page, the admins
noticeboard, and then Bastique's page as a friendly reminder of what policy
states:

Page history:

Bastique's response was to threaten me by saying "Don't revert me again": he
also reverted the page back and fully protected it this time, to "win" his
argument by preventing me from doing so. (see page history above).

He has since continued to attack me, violating WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA. He
directly called me a liar, and has been lying about the fact that he
threatened me, as well as accusing me of "gaming the system" which I am not
doing, and it seems obvious despite his claims to the contrary that he has
some stake in the content of the page, otherwise he would not have
reverted/locked it TWICE nor would he be spending this much time attacking
me for pointing out that his doing so is against policy.

It has gotten so bad that I had to create a new section regarding this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2FIncidents&diff=114838915&oldid=114838462This
section fully explains my problem as well as containing the additional
difference links.

I do not know what else to do, this is scary to be treated in this manner by
an administrator, so I am posting here in hopes that someone can help.

Please, if anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
