 * Your attempt to prematurely delete an rfded definition was reverted with the comment "Please wait for the RFD to be over." 13 hours later you did it again. Closing an RFD only 8 days after nomination is only done when there's pretty much unanimous aggreement to delete. Even then, there are procedures to follow in closing it before deletion. I'm not defending the definition, by the way- I was the one who nominated it in the first place. When the block expires in 5 days or so, please don't try to do that again, or you'll be blocked again- for a longer period. Chuck Entz (talk) 01:37, 26 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Note since I can't use your talk page: You are a fairly new admin, but I suggest you slow down a bit with the blocking. While I'm no expert on the politics here on Wiktionary, it seems to me like you focus extremely heavily on blocking single-edit accounts placing "test edits" or gibberish into pages. It doesn't exactly do well for the site "temperature."
 * I didn't intend for my comment to be interpreted as the official response to your request. You asked why you were blocked, so I, as the one who blocked you, answered your question. As for why I brought up the fact that I nominated the entry, it's been my experience with unblock requests that just about anything not nailed down is likely to be thrown into the discussion eventually, so I was anticipating a potential objection.
 * I would certainly appreciate it if other admins would weigh in with their opinions, and won't object to other admins reversing my action, if it was out of line. As for the length of the block, you may be right. I would have no objection to other admins changing that, either. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:37, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Good for you, because apparently instead of a denial, I'm just going to be ignored. Hooray politics. 63.153.253.24 01:03, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd block but for less than a week. Block is necessary as IP has been told his/her edits are acceptable but continues to make such edits. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:11, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I already had come to that conclusion myself, and unblocked them. To 63.153.253.24: you should not be intervening to shortcut a process you don't understand. Being reverted should have given you a hint that you needed to ask before doing the same thing again. You said that you educated yourself on the policy and followed it. I see you educating yourself, but just for the purpose of finding a way to wikilawyer your way around the specific wording of the revert message, not to learn the accepted practice. This isn't Wikipedia, where there are enough admins to implement detailed procedures and layers of review. Even there, I think your actions would have been viewed as hasty and inappropriate, and would eventually have led to your being blocked if you persisted. Chuck Entz (talk) 18:29, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Wikilawyering? Funny how that's an acceptable procedure when you're an established name, but assumptions of malpractice in the case of an IP are perfectly valid. Yes, I am here to push a political agenda, I've never hid that fact. 63.153.253.24 23:21, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
