— regards, Revi 15:01, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

There was a time that we didn't allow admins to silence the opposition in their own personal conflict. We called that abuse of rights and it was grounds for an immediate desysop. Of course, if you think it's wise to block the founder of Wikisage for making himself available as a public speaker, then by all means leave it so. It diminishes the WMF, not me. That is all from me, there is nothing more that needs saying. I was and remain a retired user. Guido den Broeder (talk) 15:32, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

In response to @Billinghurst: I would love to be more active but illness prevents this. I am in constant pain, struggle to stay conscious, and suffer from collapses, including a major one yesterday. However, 'bringing value' to Meta is not a requirement. Users need access to Meta because they work on the projects. Your position that 'my attempt to add myself to the Public Speakers list was bound to fail' is weird since I was on that list and had been for years, with the support of the community. There is no requirement to be block-free, or even to be in good standing anywhere. It's not relevant, everyone is allowed to add themselves and we welcome different views. Your statement about xwiki edits, meanwhile, is puzzling. Does this mean that you no longer accuse me of using a range of sockpuppets? If not, then you are not impartial, and your claim that I have no edits to speak of makes no sense. Guido den Broeder (talk) 19:16, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

This blocked user has asked to be unblocked. Blocked editor Please paste the contents of the block infobox below to help administrators locate your block in the logs. Please note that trolling or otherwise abusing your ability to edit your talk page will result in that ability being revoked. Request reason: Since no diffs were provided, I assume that this is about the exchange on Revi's talk. Pointing Revi to the exemptions section of the en:editwar policy (reverting blanking or libel is not editwarring) is not trolling, especially since I am one of the authors of that policy and Revi appeared unfamiliar with it. Voicing one's opinion that Revi isn't fit for duty, while inevitably ad hominem, is not an offense but a basic right of any user. Revi makes an error (note that they no longer accuse me of editwarring) and then attempts to cover that up by removing the user that they wronged. The first is not a big deal, everyone makes mistakes, but the second is. Note that we have been here two times before over the same Public Speakers list, that those blocks were overturned, and that shortly after you agreed with my assessment of those administrators. Administrators If this request is declined, it should be replaced with: {{Unblock declined|1=Request reason.|2=Decline reason. ~~~~}} If this request is granted, it should be replaced with: {{Unblock granted|1=Request reason.|2=Grant reason. ~~~~}} Do not unblock users without consulting with the administrator who placed the block, except in obvious, uncontroversial cases. Blocks marked as {{Checkuserblock}} will be reviewed by a CheckUser. English | dansk | español | français | 日本語 | 한국어 | Plattdüütsch | русский | 中文 | edit
