I wish to complain about vamp willow violating blocking policy by
blocking aroberts for 24 hours under the auspices of a 3RR  violation
when in fact  no 3RR  violation has ocurred.

aroberts  edited the England   page today, and there followed a minor
edit challenge during which aroberts reverted twice and  REX reverted
to the contrary three times.  The 3RR  rule states that NO  MORE than
3 reverts should be made by one enity, and yet vamp willow has blocked
aroberts who reverted only twice.  Since when is 2 more than 3?

Vamp Willow happens to agree with REX and disagrees with aroberts, so
it looks as if she has acted partially in pursuit if her own POV and
against blocking policy with a misguided interpretation of the three
revert rule.

Not only that , but also the England page has been protected with the
suggestion that differences are resolved on the corresponding talk
page.  I have always been happy to discuss the matter  on the talk
page and have incorporated information arising from those discussions
into my edits,  in the spirit of compromise, but others have reverted
against me with no such explanation. How can I follow the advice to
sort things out on the talk page if I am  blocked?   Surely protecting
a page and blocking someone from discussing it at the same time is
excessive?

That was an official complaint against vamp willow's incorrect
blocking of aroberts,

I hope this can be resolved ASAP, thanks
