Do not be a Roscelese and Binksinternet Patsy You may have been mislead by some extremist editors and you have in effect become their Patsy The other alternative is you are a cohort of them If that is the case you should resign as an admin if you can not maintain a neutral balance You need to do some more research on their backgrounds before reacting to their complaints further if the first applies Locking down articles is a weak way of silencing opposing opinions especially when it is discussions for deletions like Gatestone Institute You have track record of locking down articles for Roscelese Please understand what a sock puppet is and is not I have no control of my IP and will never adopt a wiki account do to the political environment I will participate as long as IP s are allowed The foundation knows getting rid of IP Editors would be counterproductive and Wiki s relevance would diminish greatly Whine about it if you must but it is a futile waste of time that could be spent productively editing which seems to be limited to fewer and fewer registered editors More editors are becoming part agenda pushing factions please consider that also Do no take this critic negatively as it is meant to improve Wikipedia I hope you give it serious consideration Thanks if you do that You can ban this IP if you like if you feel you must silence criticism but I have millions to choose from and you effectively ban someone else from contributing to wiki In other words it would be a pointless counterproductive pursuit that would shine a spotlight on you As Muhammad Ali said I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee But my critic is valid 172 56 11 140
