You're on the indef list; unless I missed something, please tell me. But for now, I've indef'd this account. I have this page watched, so feel free to berate me for my potential wrongdoings ;-) (email also an option) Xavexgoem (talk) 22:51, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
Question
Hi there Peter, sorry about the inconvenience when it looks like you were told in private that you were allowed to edit again. could you elaborate a little on who actually said that? I'm trying to find someone to vouch for this so we can get you unblocked, but I need to know who to email. Ryan Postlethwaite 23:11, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- Peter has been in discussion with a number of people including me. The last message I sent him said that I was waiting for feedback from FloNight, I think he got a little excited and jumped the gun. Thatcher 23:25, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- I was just emailing Jimbo to see what was going on. I still wish that he would comment on it - at the end of the day it was still a Jimbo ban and it would be good to hear it from either him or ArbCom that he's officially unblocked. When Peter was creating new accounts, we heard that they should be left unblocked per ArbCom directive, but nobody officially said anything about it. It's sort of unfair to leave the admins that take action and Peter in limbo - an official word on the matter would be good. Ryan Postlethwaite 23:30, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- When his latest incarnation User:Americanlinguist was spotted, there was a quite funny thread at AN where admins refused to block him for a few days, until someone that had not read the thread blocked him. The only action taken until then had been WP:TROUTing him , see his post at WR lamenting that his strategy failed. Unfortunately, the search function sucks, and I can't locate the AN thread -.-
- There is an informative post at WR , let's see if Jimbo makes a statement on-wiki. --Enric Naval (talk) 23:34, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
