giants you don't ever miss much do you i suspect that when he said life the block he may have meant lift the block i was thinking he may have to life it because there was no accusation there was a question replaying potw's own words that he was the original publisher when a redlinked account was the original publisher how do we reconcile those two that has not yet been answered i think potw could simply say no that's not me the first editor was the redlinked account but asking what he means by saying he is the original publisher is not the same as an accusation anyway i'm glad you are paying attention here particularly to the fact that less than hours ago i found some pressing issues in a tfa on which mark was the nominator misrepresentation of sources in several eyebrow raising statements that could hardly be missed because they were on the main page and which mark's co nominator courteously and quickly resolved before going on to find a few more perhaps i'm to get the message that i'm not to raise sourcing concerns on tfas anymore after being out all afternoon and heading out again i'll catch up on all of this later apologies always work and perhaps by the time i'm back on again i will find an apology from mark this sort of thing is not infrequent on wikipedia oh and thank goodness no one lifted the block or wheel warred or whatever no nyb there would not have been an unblock request i've always believed it's best to let bad blocks stand these issues are not infrequent on wikipedia experienced editors know they go with the business of being here but when other admins lift blocks or wheel war that only complicates subsequent matters for the arbs best talk
