I was topic-banned from RT News for 6 months for "disruptive edits" and I challenge this assertion

Advice given by Ricky is good. I have reviewed the content of the appeal and see no basis for overturning it. NW (Talk) 04:48, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

I was banned from both RT News and its talk page because I was supposedly creating "disruptive edits" by asking for scientific, verifiable proof that RT is a propaganda station, asking for studies or some sort of quantifiable data.

Instead, I was topic-banned for "disruptive editing"; yet as anyone can see at the RT Talk page I was being very polite until one editor begun accusing me of having a fake account and of editing in poor faith.

I think my topic-ban is extremely unjust, and I also call about admins to review the sources behind RT's page, as 'Daily Beast' and Tumblr have never been valid sources, and yet the admin who is attempting to lock debate on the issue of valid sources (he says that RT is "undeniably propaganda"--but that's merely opinion!) has nonetheless attempted to railroad the debate one way, in a way that makes RT look like some sort of propaganda channel, when there is no proof to this scientifically or in quantification.

I ask that my 6-month topic ban be reviewed; It's truly unfair, and I received it all in an attempt to better Wikipedia and find good sources, (which reminds me another reason why Wikipedia is dying), which makes me not want to contribute very much here anymore (And I've been contributing, mostly to history-related articles, since 2012) if I'm going to be topic-banned every time I try and make a valid improvement, only to get railroaded by influential editors with admin friends.

This is the proper place for that but (a) please consider following the instructions above and using Template:Arbitration enforcement appeal and (b) you'd do a lot better convincing people if you didn't try to argue based on attacking the admin and arguing about how Wikipedia will collapse without you. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 01:28, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
