PLEASE DESYSOP MORWEN!
MARWEN BANNED ME WITHOUT JUSTIFICATION WHEN I USED THE VOTES FOR
DELETION PAGE TO VOTE FOR THE DELETION OF A BUSINESS ADVERTISEMENT
PAGE IN WIKIPEDIA.
ADVERTISEMENTS SHOULD BE DELETED IN WIKIPIDIA. WHY AN ENCYCLOPEDIA
NEEDS PAGES ON FOR-PROFIT COMPANIES?
WIKI IS NOT YELLOW PAGES. IT IS AN ENCYCLOPEDIA. THOSE WHO WANT TO
FIND A COMPANY AND LEARN ABOUT IT CAN VISIT ITS WEBSITE AND READ THEIR
PROPAGANDA.
Just to add information: by the tone and content of this post and the
sorts of articles he was "removing advertisements" from, this is almost
certainly the same user that has been blocked so far under 2 or 3
different IPs, one of them an anonymizing proxy (207.44.154.35). The
edit summaries are usually all caps and somewhat abusive, along the
lines of "THE WIKIPEDIA RULES SAY NO FUCKING COMMERCIALIZATION! STOP
PUTTING IT IN ASSHOLES!" (from [[Atlantic City, New Jersey]]).
207.44.154.35? Hell, I blocked him on the Welsh Wikipedia last Wednesday
for vandalising [[cy:Hafan]], the Main Page to promote some "NESARA"
rubbish (it wasn't even in Welsh, which might be a little more
forgivable!). He was back today doing a minor bit of vandalism to one of
the date entries, and got blocked again. Is there any way to permanently
block an IP address?
