[WikiEN-l] Unblock request

Fri May 19 09:33:36 UTC 2006

You did delete citations, I linked the edits in which you did. And I also
linked the edit in which you replaced a perfectly fine source with your
link. The 3RR violation is because you keep adding the same link when
several people have asked you not to. In such cases, you should engage in
discussion, not revert back.

I've asked Jaiyg to comment on the copyvio thing.
