i have had a clean record for many years with over edits often i have served as a mediator on some very contentious issues and in doing so have been praised by both sides of such issues see barnstars here i'm not perfect and i have lost my cool a bit in response to a provocation i did depersonalize the comment for which i was blocked prior to the block here is the admission that his post that i responded to was a provocation i was being fascious just yanking your chain fasutian nobody in my profession uses this test not because we couldn't but because we have no need for it talk contribs i was warned that i may be blocked for more comments and i did comment in a personal way but again i then depersonalized it i will not engage in such behavior now i would like to make edits on other articles and participate in a civilized discussion and would prefer that my record not be tarnished by this mistake
