Acting in contravention to the posted policy blocked
my Ip address
(82.152.46.201) having interpreted an attempt to add a link from a new
page Evidence-Based-healthcare which I made and which should exist, to
the existing and arguably less well-named one called Evidence-based
_medicine as "vandalism" and pointed me at an article called Patent
Nonsense then decided my comment to him that this was silly and
correcting the link would have been more sensible (I had been called
away to actually do some of the subject material, so hadn't re-edited it
to work) was a personal attack.
Calling him Cryptodork was a personal attack. Please don't do that.
Looking at his profile I see he is young, so may grow
in wisdom and
tolerance, but also is very interested in wiki vandalism.
The implications you make here are also somewhat insulting. Please
don't do that either.
The IP address concerned shows a history of a
considerable number of
edits to the wiki, available at a click AFAICS, all of which are mine
and all bar one are useful. (I mistook a disambiguation page for an
article once, and added text - a sensible and helpful administrator
pointed this out.)
Thank you for your contributions. You may like to consider getting an
account. Among other things, this allows you to move pages (once you
have had the account for a while) and would have prevented this problem.
The wiki invites me to remark on this, to this list,
so I am.
After discussion with CryptoDerk, I have removed the block.
