| I uploaded that image years ago along with a bunch of others for various Star Trek episodes, and since then others have deleted and/or replaced my images because they think theirs were better and what not - I really don't care, but for this image I had a good rationale written for it that seemed satisfactory until someone else decided to change it on me. So again, I replaced the rationale with my original text - if it's not good enough then do whatever with it because I'm sick of babysitting things around when someone suddenly thinks it's not good enough. ] (]) 17:33, 4 January 2013 (UTC) | |||

| You do not have to be an Administrator to participate. | |||
| What's the unambiguous copyright violation? This is a mural in a public space at MIT, and students in the ESG program consider these lizards to be their unofficial symbol. It was painted by a group of anonymous students as a group project at ESG some years back, so the creator is not available to ask for permission. I will try to get the ESG administrator's permission if you would find that satisfactory, but in any case, the photo we took represents only a small portion of the entire mural, and should therefore OK under "fair use." | |||

On the topic of R&I, and in regard to trolling from banned users, you are correct in principle, but evidence is mounting that you have no idea how to protect yourself or the community from abuse. Your behavior is indistinguishable from that of a person who thrives on conflict—what possible good could come from reverting an established editor (particularly on an arbitration page, and with a blatantly incorrect edit summary of "rvv"—see ]).

"Mathsci is instructed to refrain from posting further enforcement requests '''regarding the interaction bans listed here on-wiki''' without prior private consultation and agreement from an uninvolved adminstrator familiar with the case." That evidently did not apply in this particular case. Nevertheless I still agree with your advice that, given the logged warning to Mors Martell (now back in place), there was no need in this case for an AE report. ] (]) 10:37, 10 January 2013 (UTC) | |||
