Fairness and neutrality of admins your recourse Hi Nancy I think it s a difficult question regarding whether admins have treated you fairly or not I think you are not wholly innocent but I m not convinced that you have been treated with an even hand either As you may know I was surprised at and somewhat nonplussed that you and Xandar were blocked Heck the whole straw poll IAR block incident is questionable in my book However it all happened so quickly and during a period when I was less active at Wikipedia so I chose not to raise a ruckus about it as it seemed to be a fait accompli by the time I learned about it I gather you were rather strident at WP ANI which is what triggered your block This all seems to be water under the bridge by now so rather than reopen old wounds I would counsel that you learn from the experience and tone down your emotions even if you are being treated unfairly That said it s clear to me that there has been a bit of admin myopia seeing incivility on your part while ignoring the same or worse on the part of other editors such as PManderson and others I have remarked on this a number of times at Talk Catholic Church but did not act on it at the time because I was an involved admin I m not an admin anymore so I couldn t act on it now if I wanted to As much as I think the current Catholic Church RFC over versions is ill advised and likely to be inconclusive it is now underway so I think we should let it run its course Once it s done you might wish to consider a user conduct RFC to raise the fairness issues Note that user conduct RFCs are required to be restricted to one specific user Thus you may wish to raise user conduct RFCs on different users such as UberCryxic PManderson and even SlimVirgin I m not saying that such user conduct RFCs will get you the satisfaction that you seem to wish However I m just pointing out what recourse you have if you choose to go down that road I reserve the right to decide my response to any such RFCs based upon the facts presented at the time How s that for being a weasel Sorry If there seems to be a consensus that you were treated unfairly the results of the user RFC could be brought up in various forums such as WP ANI or WP ARBCOM Based on the history to date however you should take into account the fact that it is not a clear cut case of unfair treatment so the user conduct RFCs could get quite contentious You have to decide for yourself whether or not issuing them would be worth it
