I have notified the blocking admin of your request. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 18:41, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * If you're not already familiar with it, please take a moment to review Wikipedia's policy on legal threats; in a nutshell, editors seriously considering, threatening, or engaging in relevant legal action are asked not to edit Wikipedia while those actions are pending. We could look into reducing the block duration, but generally things are separated into legal channels or wiki channels, not both at once. – Luna Santin  (talk) 18:41, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Indeed, we have no way to confirm that you have Asperger's syndrome, and we are not blocking you because you have it. You are blocked merely because you have disrupted the project.  We have no reason to care why this is, we are only acting to stop the disruption, not because we have any feeling towards you as a person... --Jayron32. talk . contribs  18:45, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * You do not have a legal right to edit wikipedia, however, and are not require to accommodate you at all. Your editing of it is disruptive to others, and this behavior, whatever the cause, will not be tolerated. ff m  20:11, 19 October 2008 (UTC)


 * As I do know something about the Autism Spectrum, which includes Aspergers Syndrome, I have to say this: the editors who are blocking you are being quite sensitive about this. On top of that, legal threats under any auspices will extend a block.  If I were you, I would remove all the legal threats by using a strikethrough (  around the comments.  On your User page, I would self-identify, including a link to the Asperger's article, and include "tips" to help others interact with you.  They aren't required and will not help you when the rules are broken, but it may help others adjust their interactions with you in a positive way.


 * On a privately-owned website on which you voluntarily became a member, you are not entitled to any form of "accomodation". However the Wiki software does already provide accomodation: there's a Preview button.  There's an undo/revert ability.  On top of that, you have the personal ability to apologize, which, when mixed with an undo/revert is very effective.  We also have discussion pages for ANY article.  You can discuss changes, and when consensus is reached, they can be performed.  Lots of ability for patience and discussion.


 * There are many self-identifying persons with Aspergers on this site, and many whose edits I have been involved with. None have had an issue with the accomodation provided.  BMW  (drive)  09:16, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey :)
Is this who I think it is, or just someone with a similar name? :) BOZ (talk) 04:21, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
