William's violation of BLOCK with others
Three independent administrators: Chaser, FeloniousMonk, and Viridae all found that William abused his administrative powers by blocking editors he was in an edit war with, violating BLOCK.

Here are William's violation of BLOCK. All blocks can be found on William's block page.
 * 1) In an edit war with User:Chris_Chittleborough on Hockey stick controversy William blocks Chris. Administrator Chaser later states "you're correct that WMC shouldn't have blocked an editor he was in a dispute with" On William's page Chaser says: "Will...you can't block users you're in disputes with. The policy is unambigious and ArbCom has indicated the same thing. This is the kind of thing that people get de-sysopped for."
