User:PalestineRemembered/BlockHistory

Note - the red blocks are almost certainly bad calls, but they're not necessarily abusive. The block log can be seen here.


 * 26 November 2006 - 1 month block. "Serial violations of WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, WP:NOR and WP:BLP" - completely false. User:FeloniousMonk at Jayjg's insigations. Felonious Monk is later de-syssoped for, amongst other things, just this kind of collusion and abuse. The block comes 13 minutes after the ANI is raised making any other opinion impossible. Two editors query this block 24 hours later, pointing out that I can hardly be worse than certain long-standing, named, defenders of Israel. The good faith of my "defenders" is impugned with "This is about PR, not other editors you have content disputes with". Only trivial evidence of offenses ever surfaces.


 * 1 January 2007 - 2 month block for complaining. This is FeloniousMonk at Jayjg's instigation, again. This time there is "evidence" - but it concerns "Soap-boxing", no damage to articles. There are 2 dubious examples of personal attack and one dubious accusation of original research. Most damagingly perhaps, this sarcasm aimed at my tormentor.


 * 6 March 2007 - 1 month block for an objection to racism on a TalkPage.


 * 13 May 2007 18:59 - Permanent blocking, this time by an uninvolved administrator, reason given "Fraudulent citations and repeats of other past misbehavior, user has had plenty of chances" on this edit. However, the accusation was "Taking my views and references from the Holocaust Deniers", which is plainly false (the incident in question is well known indeed, with protests in the UK House of Commons). I am unblocked by the same admin 30 mins later due to the objections. I cannot see a single false or objectionable (POV or anything else) change in the 4 or 5 points I added to this article. (Though few have survived the often disruptive editing that this article suffers - admin action needed anyone?).


 * 13 May 2007 23:49 - Permanent blocking again, this and the earlier ones were all carried out by an administrator de-syssoped in Sept 2008, though mysteriously not for this particular conduct. I've provided the exact reference for my edit, from a book in my possession that pre-dates the use of this incident by the Holocaust Deniers within 2 hours - but that's apparently irrelevant.


 * 20 May 2007 - Another permanent blocking by an uninvolved admin, my un-blocking apparently wasn't in order that I should defend myself (?!). "Reblocking per breach of his unblocking terms". Reversed after 2 hours on protest by my "advocate", who is, however, aggressively treated by another admin. This feature, sometimes amounting to severe harassment of my defenders, is a feature throughout my editing career.


 * 8 August 2007 - 8 hours block on a false (likely malicious) accusation of 3RR. Lifted after some hours on appeal.


 * 12 August 2007 - blocked 24 hours for possibly making a "legal threat". (I've been unable to get an answer to the question of whether another editor has a conflict of interest and pursue too aggressively). Two other editors want to know the answer to the same thing, but we'll never get an answer. At this point, "mentoring" is suddenly imposed (but no conditions set).


 * 28 August 2007 - "shot across the bows", I've been told to find a mentor. (In the event, 4 volunteers largely have no problem with anything I'm doing, they're driven off by the unchecked personal unpleasantness aimed at them).


 * 29 October 2007 - I've posted to another users's TalkPage with a "tongue-in-cheek" attempt at dispute resolution. My posting there is the fifth consecutive posting complaining about his behaviour, and probably the least bad-tempered. I appeal on this one and it is lifted by the same uninvolved admin.


 * 1 May 2008, blocked one week. See this notification where my "forced mentor" defends what I've done (and my edit sticks) but am blocked anyway. The edit in "question" is here. Claims are made that this notification was adjudged offensive (why?). As per usual, I do not appeal.


 * 26 May 2008 - bizarre - 72 hours ‎for quoting from Jews Against Zionism (transcription of an interview added to a new section I've had accepted into an article)


 * 28 July, blocked 48 hours - this is really bizarre. Two of the three edits concerned  are entirely reasonable and stick. The third revert concerns an idiotic piece of vandalism that admins should be stamping on, not penalising those trying to correct!


 * 19 November 2008 indef-blocked on another "legal threat" (the victim doesn't notice!). This has to be my first genuine block, since my mentors tell me I'm out of order and I retract.
 * The "victim" did notice and did complain. Justin talk 15:37, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
