=== BLOCK NUMBER SIX - JIMBO STEPS IN - 6 September 2008 ===

The final block was on 6 September, by Jimmy Wales.  The block was for a remark made in the Wikipedia Review forum, for [[http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=20205&view=findpost&p=127093 this] remark.  'All hail, chief of security and protector of the community, FT2. The bodies of the guilty and the innocent burn together with that sweet sickly smell of death, in the pit, in the morning.'  Note this was not a holocaust reference, but to the Junta period, when people would be taken out and shot, and dumped in the rubbish pits.  At the time, FT2 was blocking a large number of editors, and I was returning to my concern about the increasing 'police state' aspect of Wikipedia.

I [[http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=20205&st=280&p=127117&#entry127117 apologised immediately].  Note that FT2 himself was a contributor to Wikipedia Review, and had also made a number of personal attacks on me, including [http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=20332 this whole thread].  "Peter... Yes, you go back on your word. Repeatedly." [http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=20332&view=findpost&p=129819]

However, Wales made the block himself [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=block&user=Jimbo+Wales&page=User%3APeter+Damian&year=&month=-1], commenting "It's one thing to say "I don't agree with this decision, can we talk about it?" It is quite another thing to say things like 'All hail, chief of security and protector of the community, FT2. The bodies of the guilty and the innocent burn together with that sweet sickly smell of death, in the pit, in the morning.'"
