Block
Having reviewed your contributions, I have decided to block you. You have made extensive problematic edits to pedophilia-related articles, including this creation and [1] which amount to pedophilia advocacy, and continue to this day. You have also engaged in ruleslawyering and arguing hard against blocks of pro-pedophilia editors, including Dyskolos. You may appeal this block privately to arbcom-l.

- I have removed some debate to the archive; Dmcdevit is a checkuser and there are arbitration cases underpinning this, also some hints of foundation issues. It would be better to wait for the outcome of A.Z.'s (necessarily) private discussions with the arbitrators rather than engage in speculation and drama. Your patience is appreciated.

- First of all, I am getting a bit sick and tired of hearing the excuse of "Pedophilia Advocacy" dragged out every time an edit is made which is slightly to the left of center on an article related to child sexuality or child sexual abuse. These are content disputes, which should be resolved by consensus. What seems to be happening is that Arbcom is abusing indefinite blocks to selectively pick off editors in these content disputes, leaving the articles to be entirely edited by people with a certain obvious bias, facts notwithstanding. If this continues, all these articles should be tagged with a disclaimer, much like we do with the articles on Perpetual Motion Machines. Enrico Dirac 21:11, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- I would request that you hold off the drama until A.Z. has had time to discuss this with the arbitrators. Drama is unlikely to help and may well make matters worse. I am sure that each case is viewed strictyl on its merits, but that, too, is between A.Z. and the arbitrators. There is a reaosn why these things tend to be done privately, which is that the very subject tends to excite a degree of hysteria which is not conducive to rational debate. Better to click Special:Random a few times and find some typos to fix, come back in a few days and see what transpires. That's my view, anyway. I think in the long run that calm is better than a baying mob, for or against the editor in question. Guy (Help!) 21:33, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
