| Charles, would you consider changing your vote to allow an RfC to go forward? Alienus does have many blocks, but a few recent blocks have been controversial, some of which were eventually overturned, hence the heated AN/I discussions. I do think an RFC is in order, as there are some legitimate concerns that need to be worked out. As a few users have noted, Alienus has been getting better as an editor, not getting worse. As such, I think it's premature to go straight into RFA. Al has indicated that he is willing to abide by the outcome of an RFC. I'd like to see that he is given that opportunity before resorting to arbitration. Tony has suggested he won't stand in the way of this proposal. ] 23:22, 5 July 2006 (UTC) | |||

| ::I understand that. But consider that a number of users have indicated he has been improving as an editor, not deteriorating. Also, ] has been making an effort to mentor him: ''I suppose there is a personal aspect to this as I have tried to play a mentor role to Al and he has responded as well as you could ever expect someone to do in the short time we have been in communication. He still needs to work on his civility occasionally but I genuinely think sometimes he has no idea how his comments will be taken by others. These are errors everyone in the world is guilty of and a successful community will educate people and help them avoid problems in the future. Throw in the international element of this project and you have even more issues as culturally we do approach things differently.'' In my mind, arbcom is a last resort, to be used when other avenues have been exhausted. Considering his recent improvements, and the questionable nature of the recent blocks (which would challenge anybodys good faith assumptions, imho), I hope you will reconsider. ] 16:44, 6 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :Well, we'll see what comes out of the Fred Bauder suggestion of throwing this to an RfC. That could generate some discussion: I haven't yet had anything further out of Fred on it, but I'm certainly flexible if he thinks there is a good case.

Drawshield File:Blazon of Champion de Crespigny baronets, of Champion Lodge (1805).svg
Hi
Thanks for uploading File:Blazon of Champion de Crespigny baronets, of Champion Lodge (1805).svg
As you will have realised the 2nd and third quarters (2nd and 3rd azure three bars argent)look distorted.
A workaround on Drawshield that produces a better looking result is 2nd and 3rd barry of 7 azure and argent
You can see the result at https://www.wikitree.com/photo/png/Champion_de_Crespigny-17
I wish the lions in the 1st and 4th quarters were not distorted but ...

- There are various improvements that can now be made, as Drawshield develops. On the 2nd and 3rd quarters, the blazon is definitely azure three bars argent, for Vierville de Vierville. Using barrulets doesn't look good, so there is a limit to what I can do there.
