Long time anon user finally registered.

State terrorism and the United States

Re State terrorism and the United States. Please *don't* re-insert the deleted material, this is liable to get viewed as tendentious editing - this page is too close to page protection as it is. This article is in desperate need of trimming and re-focussing. Re-adding material that should be in sub-articles is not helping William M. Connolley (talk) 21:20, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please keep this on the article talk page. I have stated by objections there and aritrary mass deletions without time for discussion or consensus is worng. Also, you have abused your admin powers by editing the article to your preferences after you had locked it. If you disagree we can take this to ANI?Supergreenred (talk) 21:26, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Well you can't at the moment because as I warned you, I've blocked you for tendentious editing William M. Connolley (talk) 21:34, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is clear admin abuse, and I will now work to have you desysoped, for this blatent abuse of your admin powers. You locked the article, then made edits to change the content, and now you block an opponent that you are involved in a content dispute with. Your "tendentious" editing is what you have done, not me. This block is baseless and trumped up. A clear case of abuse. I will apeal this to all admins and Jimbo, and have your conduct here reviewed, unless you recind this unjust block that is aimed soely at giving you a content advantage.Supergreenred (talk) 21:36, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I opposed an admins massive changes after he locked the article to make changes he wanted, homself. I did not violate any policy. When I pointed out his abuse he blocked me under spurious reason, singling me out when others have reverted too. This is unfair. I should not be blocked. This admin has been abusing his admin powers to gain a content advantage on the article. He is edit warring and blocking those who oppose him. Shame.

Decline reason:

Despite your claims, you were blocked by William M. Connolley (talk · contribs) on 2008-04-13 but the page, State terrorism and the United States, was protected by Rlevse (talk · contribs), prior to and then about half an hour after, you were blocked. Given that, I can find no basis in your claims and I'll warn you that any further personal attacks may result in this page being protected. You are free to restate your case once more, in a civil manner and once you are sure about your facts. — Yamla (talk) 22:54, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

How do I get a list of admins to e-mail?Supergreenred (talk) 22:01, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You can't. However, you are free to contact a member of WP:ARBCOM (a single member, no spamming your complaint to everyone you can find) by contacting them via email if you feel it is necessary. --Yamla (talk) 22:55, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Facts with diffs

Admin William M. Connolley (talk · contribs) puts a full protection on page:[1][2]

Then, after he protects the page, he starts making his changes to it, by blanking sections. There is no chance given for participation on talk page about what he wanted to do before he did it. No discussion. Its just his unilateral use of admin powers. See:[3]

He continues to make massive changes he wants after he protected the page. See:[4] And, again, he continues, making his mass deletions after he protected the page:[5]

This is using his admin powers to gain an advantage in a content dispute. He then unprotects the page and editors restore most of what he has removed without consensus. Then, another admin Rlevse (talk · contribs), comes in and protects the page again for a short period:[6]

But as soon as it gets unprotected,William M. Connolley (talk · contribs) comes in again and does a super mass deletion of this article. See this:[7]

I then complain about this on the talk page, and explain my reason for reverting him. See:[8]

The result is William M. Connolley (talk · contribs) uses his admin powers to block me. Right after blocking me, he then reverts back to his version, having rendered his content opponent silent. See:[9]

Its not proper for admins to use their powers to protect the article and then edit it: it gives them a content change advantage. That is not allowed. Since he became involved in content dispute, he should have abstained from using any admin powers on this article to gain an advantage. Blocking the editor he is in a content dispute with so he can continue to edit war by blocking those he is edit warring with is a clear cut case of admin abuse. Just like when he protected the article and then started editing it.

Lastly, despite other editors reverting also, he singled me out for a block, after I challenged his abuse of admin powers, and calling for discussion on to occur before the massive deletions. My original description stands as valid, and if you disagree with me that this is a clear cut case of admin abuse, then I request and these facts be raised on ANI, or a Rfc on this admins actions.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I opposed an admins massive changes after he locked the article to make changes he wanted, himself. I did not violate any policy. When I pointed out his abuse and reverted the masssive changes he blocked me under spurious reason, singling me out when others have reverted too. This is unfair. I should not be blocked. This admin has been abusing his admin powers to gain a content advantage on the article as I described above with diffs. As a party to the content dispute, (and he is edit warring) he should not be using his admin powers to block those who oppose him, esp. when I have not even violated 3RR.

Decline reason:

There was discussion taking place - simply because disagree with the consensus made does not mean you can go against it. — Hersfold (t/a/c) 04:15, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
