RE: Notice of Appeal of BAN

I refer to the following:

Jimmy Wales - Fri, 20 Jun 2003 12:40:58 -0700

Joe Canuck is banned from wikipedia.  Would someone with the

appropriate powers please take the appropriate steps to make this

technically true.

As always, Joe is invited to write to me to discuss this further,

and/or is invited to the mailing list.

Some have expressed a strong conviction that Joe Canuck is the same

person or persons as DW, etc.  I express no opinion on that matter,

and find that Canuck's actions alone are sufficient for banning.  To

the extent that it is true, of course, then just being the same person

is grounds for a continuation of the ban.

Sir: 

Please accept this as my formal appeal of the ban stated above in accordance with the second paragraph. Regretfully, it is impossible for me to provide a defense to obtain proper justice in this serious matter when the only accusation made known to me is “that Canuck's actions alone are sufficient for banning.” 

I have done nothing but be a conscientious contributor to Wikipedia.org of a very sizeable amount of encyclopedic information and have conducted myself in the most appropriate and proper manner possible. Accordingly I must ask that you post to this mailing list the specific details of the “actions” you claim were justification for banning me in order that I be allowed to make a proper response. Thank you.
