Let me put it as (hopefully) good advice, all this drama would not have been necessary, Abd, if you would have also notified WMC, as he suggested in his 'ban' post.  To me, that is even completely separate from the point if you agree with the ban, if it is a ban, if the ban is appropriate or whatever.  I mean, I am there not even using a policy or guideline to oppose the ban or to discuss my way out of it (what to some may read as wikilaywer).  Its just not necessary then.  I hope this helps.

P.S., I did not see the post on the workshop, so you did say more about it (my apologies), though also that I would not see as the optimal venue either (just as your own talkpage).  I hope this also explains.   T C
