Mulot was banned for a week because she tried to propose another angle of view, an historical timeline, that could enrich the wiki.
Who did the ban?
Another user was banned along because he "made the mistake" to state of few truths.
Well, this is a bit vague, but I'm listening. This doesn't sound like a good reason to ban someone.
I have no problem with your decision of being the only one with the right to ban logged-in user, but
Well, that's not exactly what I've said. :-) I think that being logged in or not logged in is really not important. What's important is that none of us (even me) ban anyone for anything other than outright vandalism, without a long discussion first. And after that discussion, it falls on me to make a final decision.
- people can still delete pages of those they don't
agree with, instead of talking
This is by using a destructive delete? No one is supposed to use a destructive delete in an argument. If they blank the page, well, that's rude, but the other person can restore it from the history. Episodes like this are unpleasant, but tend to end fairly quickly, and both sides are "equal" in the fight.
- I forecast threats of forking again, when french
will know about that
I don't think there will be a fork.
It seems that fr.wikipedia.com is still on the Usemod software. So I could take away sysop privileges by changing the password. I won't do that right now, but I do not think that people should be banned for the things you have mentioned.
But, I have only so far heard your side of the story.
