Assistance
I truly believe that one of the wikipedia editors is abusing authority. I created a founded, referenced edit on the Mayor Eric Adams page and because the well-established user did not like what was being truthfully reported and getting much attention in New York, he blocked the ability to edit by protecting the page from vandalism. I hardly believe this was vandalism. I have experienced his comments and actions as bullying and elitist and I would like for an unbiased person to look into the matter. There is a lot on the talk of Muboshgu (the person who has acted as the authoritarian on the matter). FACT: Eric Adams is building Tent Cities in the Bronx. This is cited in many sources, including the NYTimes. Initially, Muboshgu did not like my source, but the NYTimes is certainly reputable. Thank you for your assistance. 2603:7000:3540:AF:205D:AFEC:BBC7:E3A3 (talk) 23:36, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
