Your AIV report
Thanks for filing a report at WP:AIV. However, I did not block the user you reported, because the edit history shows

To clarify, here's what most administrators expect to see before issuing a block:
 * 1) User vandalizes a page
 * 2) You warn them with or
 * 3) User vandalizes again
 * 4) You warn them again with
 * 5) User vandalizes again
 * 6) You issue a last warning with
 * 7) User vandalizes again
 * 8) You report them to AIV

This all needs to take place within a reasonable span of time. How long is up to the individual administrator, but most expect at least the latest one or two warnings to have been issued and ignored within the past 30-60 minutes. A day or two at the very most. We block users to protect Wikipedia, not to punish them. If they're not vandalizing on a regular basis, blocking them isn't effective.

Hope that clears things up. I know it's a long process, but we want to give everyone enough chances to mend their ways before we block them. Yes, it wastes a lot of time, but it's the only way to keep Wikipedia free for everyone. Thanks again for your efforts at fighting vandalism. If you follow those steps, you'll have better success at AIV in the future.
