Your 3RR complaint
I take note that Arbcom, when unblocking you on September 8, strongly advised you to stay away from articles on Communism. Based on your recent filing at WP:AN3#User:Igny reported by User:The Last Angry Man (Result: ), I would be inclined to block you for disruption. Your dispute with Igny and your 3RR report give an almost perfect example of not taking Arbcom's advice. Before I issue any new block, I'll offer you the chance to agree voluntarily to not agree any articles about Communism for three months. Let me know your answer. If not, I am likely to issue a long block and let you re-apply to Arbcom for relief. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 22:04, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Yes I was advised to not edit articles over which I may have strong feelings, this is however the pedia anyone can edit right? I have broken no rules whatsoever and have explained all actions taken on article talk pages, yet I am to be blocked for disruption? I see no reason to voluntarily stop editing articles which may be related to communism as you are actually threatening to ban me if I do not comply, there is naught voluntary about that is there? I will not stop editing articles I have an interest in, I have created two articles which I am continually working upon Communist crimes against humanity and now of course Douglas Pike I was unblocked and asked to not edit certain articles, I was not banned from them. I will if you wish refrain from editing the Communist terrorism and Occupation of the Baltic States articles for a period on one month (or two if you prefer) to show I am willing to edit in a collaborative manner and am willing to heed your advise. Is that suitable to you? I would like to be able to comment on article talk pages as I have said I would rewrite the section on Malayan terrorism. If this is suitable please let me know, thank you.

- I'd stick to the three months exclusion from Communist-related articles but you could still comment on their talk pages. You would also be restricted from using noticeboards to complain about edits at any Communist-related article for 3 months. I see no way that you could work on Communist crimes against humanity or Douglas Pike or Occupation of the Baltic States but you could work on drafting material in your own user space.
