I have moved your talk archive out of the main namespace and deleted the redirect at ^^James^^/archive1. If you have questions about that, please ask on my talk page. Happy editing, Kusma (討論) 21:15, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ooops! Thanks. ^^James^^ 21:54, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

3RR block

I have blocked you for a fourth revert at Acharya S. There is no 'entitlement' to a fourth revert, even if the 24 hours are up. You have been engaged in sterile edit warring at this article long enough. Bear in mind that policies here are interpreted in the spirit, not just the letter. Your block is for 24 hours.

AJA continually reverts with stated intention not to talk it over, and with continued uncivility directed at myself and others. [1] Why you "appreciate" such efforts is beyond me. Considering his refusal to discuss on the talk page, I think your strict interpretation of policy in this instance is a bit much. ^^James^^ 23:50, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have taken this up on Charles Matthews talk page [2] but have had no luck. I should warn you against pursuing this yourself after the block as I have never seen a case like this where the user with a problem actually came off well. At worst you will get blocked again for trouble making and at best you will be told not to waste everyone's time. Depressing but true.
I'm also taking this up at 3rr [3] as A.J.A. got away with it by reverting us both with one blow - thus saving his "allowance". This is a terrible situation and I'm appauled by all of this. However I'm also getting increasing disillusioned with the ability of the admins to police themselves. Charles Matthews is on the arbcom so you will win no friends by fighting this and I'm sure I won't do too well by posting this.
If you wish to try your luck you can post {{unblock}} on your talk page and another admin will look at the block. Since this has not been logged at WP:AN/3RR as it should have been no one else has had a chance to comment (I'm just watching the Acharya page as I've croosed swords with A.J.A. before and saw a message about your block). Be warned though - this may result in the block being lengthened. Sophia 13:03, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
