'''Defence'''. Principled and good-faith criticism of another person is not the same thing as a personal attack or harassment.  Everyone accepts that fair and principled criticism of another editor's action is essential to the continued survival of the Wikipedia project.  But the evidence below shows that my criticism of the editor called FT2 has been principled and in good faith.  My actions should not therefore be labelled as 'harassment'.
