You'll be missed
We'll miss your presence and work here on the 'pedia, Nishidani. For what its worth, which isn't much, I think the block was a serious overreaction - 1 week for that comment, with no history of blocks/warnings for the behavior cited in the block reason? Unfortunate that excessively punitive reactions, unevenly applied, take away some of our best editors but leave us with many of lesser worth. Avruch 16:14, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
- Agreed. John Carter (talk) 16:19, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
- All Nishidani needs to do is back down and request unblock. Look at the diff I cited. They need to recognize this sort of participation is completely inappropriate and unhelpful. They need to renounce incitement and drama mongering as editorial tactics. Jehochman 16:27, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
