| − | The run-up to the block was my canvassing in the December Arbitration committee elections in Wikipedia. I regarded one the candidates, who operated under the pseudonym 'FT2' as a pernicious and destructive influence on the encyclopedia, because of his biased and slanting editing in the area of pseudoscience and alternative sexuality.

I will delete it and promise to make no further remarks of that sort if you remove the block. Please. edward 18:59, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

He has made public statements in articles in WP that are POV, and intended to support human sex with animals. [b]His private life is his own affair[/b]. His public statements are such as to bring disrepute to the project. edward (buckner) 18:51, 4 December 2007 (UTC)” [Note that FT2 has alleged that this claim came 'much later'. This diff clearly disproves that.

| − | 18:57 - I comment on the absence of diffs. “On the other talk page, [b]someone disputed whether I have links. Yes I do. I had hoped we could do without that[/b]. I would be happy if FT2 withdrew, and we ended this. It is not in the interests of this project to escalate this.”

| − | [quote]The block has been removed, as I apologised. I leave it up to you as to guidelines on what to do with the page. It mostly consists of links, and some discussion. My point relates only to PUBLIC statements, on WP, made by the user in question. [Damian] 19:44, 4 December 2007 (UTC) [/quote]
