That certainly was a quick response. As I said, would anyone take a look at
this? There are 400 administrators, acting at their own discretion, someone
might make a rash decision on his own.
I wouldn't complain if Gamalium wrote a public explanation of this block.
Thanks

No they are not. Sandyweill/[[User:Jerryseinfeld]]
posted a series of copyvios. I posted on his talk page
and asked him to stop and started to tag the pages. He
removed the copyvio tags from a number of pages. I
warned him to stop on his talk page. I know he read
the warning because he replied to the message. He
also continued to remove the copyvio tags. After he
was blocked he sent me the following email: "Hi. I
just signed up for the mailing list, and it looks like
YOU are about to be blocked. For acting irresponsibly,
making false claims, and attacking a star
contributor." Not exactly how I wanted to spend my
Christmas, nor what I wanted to talk about on my first
post to this list, but there you go.
