It's irrelevant whether you used the block time to revert or not: "sysops must not block editors with whom they are currently engaged in a content dispute", period. That's the exact wording of the blocking policy and the basics of adminship. Pecher 12:26, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

The second sentence (quoted above) gives an interpretation of the first and must be followed to the letter. It doesn't say admins may block if he dosn't use the block to their advantage; it says admins must never block those with whom they are involved in a content dispute. Your references to the first sentence, while disregarding the second one are inappropriate. Pecher 12:37, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

GLF/Sussexman/Christchurch

Hallo Homey,

I have just posted the following as a follow-up on User talk:Edchilvers. I am confident that Sussexman and Christchurch are the same contributor, probably GLF.

The clincher is Sussexman's interest in a specific area of New South Wales in Australia - I was intrigued to see that he has started and contributed to articles about funny little places like Cessnock, New South Wales, Maitland, New South Wales, Gloucester, New South Wales - and a particular interest in the area's coal industry (South Maitland coalfields; John Scholey; Charles Upfold). Sussexman mentioned to another editor that he had a family connection with the region. Guess who else has a family connection to this insignificant little corner of south-eastern Australia? Guess who has a family connection to coal-mining? Guess whose coal-mine manager great-uncle emigrated to Kurri Kurri (a suburb of Cessnock, New South Wales)? Here's the great-uncle from New South Wales. Click on the Details link at the bottom right hand, and guess who pops up?
GLF is descended from John Upfold and also related to Charles Upfold and John Scholey.
In a curious circularity, a contributor to the John Scholey piece and creator of the Charles Upfold article is Christchurch - yet another contributor whose primary areas of interest appear focused on (a) coal-mining in the same bit of New South Wales, and (b) right-wing fringe politics.

3RR on Apartheid

Hello Homey, I should inform you that you are in danger of a 3RR violation on Israeli apartheid (phrase).- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:11, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

You are also in danger of a different 3RR violation on Jewish Defense League.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:40, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up.-Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:42, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

The guy just put it in the category like one hour ago, I asked him to remove both of them.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 20:39, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Zeq's editing

In my opinion your complaint about Zeq's editing was essentially the pot calling the kettle black. Jayjg 20:40, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

In my view the main difference is that you are an administrator with many years of experience on Misplaced Pages, and really should know much better. Jayjg 22:55, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
