Btw, I have posted the following message today in the English Wikipedia with a problem I've got in the Spanish one, since it seems as if the librarians there were not willing to understand my point:
I have been blocked in my Spanish account because I tried to blank my Talk page. There were two very old messages, with the matter already set, that I do not want to be in display anymore. The regulations about Blanking read like this:
Policy does not prohibit users, whether registered or unregistered users, from removing comments from their own talk pages, although archiving is preferred. The removal of material from a user page is normally taken to mean that the user has read and is aware of its contents. There is no need to keep them on display and usually users should not be forced to do so.
The Spanish Wikipedia librarians claim that blanking is forbidden, although it is not clearly stated at the Help page (where it is written that it is forbidden to erase other people's messages without stating in who's Talk page) and not stated at all at the Etiquette page (where it is only written that it could be done, but rather not). It could be a case of mistranslation or misunderstanding, since in the English Wikipedia there is no so prohibition.
Maybe you can help me to solve out this mess? Thank you in advance.
