Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Lir blocking and unblocking

What, you don't have the integrity to question the original block? Pathetic. - Hephaestos|§ 04:59, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)

The original block was against policy, and the reason given was false, which is why I removed it. But Hephaestos did not block Lir all three times. If he had done so, this would be about him and not Hcheney. Hcheney reinstated a block disputed by two users knowing that it was against policy. Guan aco 05:46, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Re: Response

If my blocking Lir twice is of question, why is Guanaco's double unblocking acceptable?

My second unblock was only done after you had blocked Lir twice. Guan aco 05:59, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I removed the vote of Lir, because at that moment, Lir would have been blocked if it was not for Guanaco's unilateral action. Upon realizing there was some community support for including Lir's vote, I left Lir's vote as it was, and added a note of objection.

Lir should never have been blocked. My unilateral action was appropriate according to Wikipedia:Blocking policy#Unblocking. Guan aco 05:59, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I did not ban Lir for holding "unpopular opinions". I banned Lir because I felt that Lir was evading an earlier block with the aid of Guanaco.

Maybe so. But if the original block was for that or similar reasons, it is still against policy to reblock that person. Guan aco 05:59, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)
