A report of your violation has been filed here. - Biruitorul 04:26, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
April 2009
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week in accordance with Misplaced Pages's blocking policy for violating your Eastern Europe topic ban imposed under Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren#Discretionary sanctions here by making this edit; per this AE request. Please stop. You are welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest the block by adding the text{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Sandstein 05:28, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:
Really, I've made 3 mainspace edits in the last 6 months. Does the fact that the 3rd edit was an undeniable, easily verificable and sourceable detail about my country warrant a 1-week long block? Is the diruption caused by my 3 mainspace edits in the last 6 months so severe that I need to be blocked on sight for an insignificant edit about the country I know best? Do my editing habits indicate that I was going to make Misplaced Pages a living hell (cause we are all well aware of the goals of blocking somebody)? I really can't uderstand how this 1-week block is more than an entry in my blocklog (the mainspace edits I make 4 months aparts likely won't be affected)
Decline reason:
Accepting (for the sake of argument) that your edit wasn't controversial, there is no consensus that non-controversial edits should be granted an exemption from topic bans. If you're not planning on editing for months, you don't need to be unblocked before this block expires. If you are, that's unfortunate, because we really don't have a good way of enforcing a ban - once you've violated it - other than by blocking. SHEFFIELDSTEEL 21:16, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
