Песма

„Мој добри роде, сви су лагали, И твој су видик сав помрачили; За својом срећом само трагали, И свуда крали, и све тлачили.

И место млека, крв су сисали, У страдањима твојим дугима, Твоје су светло име брисали, Да не знаш ко си међу другима.

С убицама су цркве стварали, И с издајником горде тврђаве; У заклетви те свакој варали, На води дигли мосте рђаве!

На згаришту ти држе говоре, На губилишту подло пирују, На буњиштима саде ловоре… И мртве уче сад да мирују.

Мој добри роде, сви су рђави, Вапај твој не чују што тугује! Издајник и сад још у тврђави, С убицом жртва сада другује.

Ломан је, роде, мост на провали, Свуд су у причест отров ставили… С лупежом све су новце ковали, Са кривоклетником завет правили.“

I was toppic banned once from article about Pavle Đurišić. Here is how administrator who banned me explained the reason for my ban: "His previous topic ban was due to a perception that discussions involving him would never reach a conclusion, which led to a judgment of bad faith participation." - I pointed to more than 50 issues of the article in question, submitted sources with translation if it was necessary and proposed exactly how to resolve them. More than 30 of them (more than 60%) were resolved by reaching a consensus at article's talkpage.
I was topic banned on 20 July 2014 "in topics involving 'Serbs and Serbia 1900-current' (broadly construed)" because ................................ The editor who reported me stated in discussion about my ban appeal: "....he now promises to strictly adhere to policies. I seem to recall that that's sort of exactly what happened the last time - he used every method imaginable that stayed roughly within the realm of a cursory interpretation of the policies, while still pushing his POV and gnawing at our collective patience."
- the ban consensus was borderline at best.
- my plan in the topic area I was banned from for a probation of one year two years includes:
  - 0RR restriction
  - limiting the amount of comments I make to a particular thread to one per day, two totally, including the amount of times I responded to other users' comment in the specific thread. If after 2 comments I wrote to a specific thread there is still no consensus reached regarding some content or conduct dispute, I oblige myself to use relevant noticeboards or WP:DR tools. I underline here that I was wrong and made mistake for not doing it before.
  - If any of above mentioned editors explicitly express concern about my conduct, I oblige myself to report myself a to relevant noticeboard.
  - limiting the amount of times I mention the same thing on a talk page to zero.
  - limiting the amount of new sections I make on a talk page to one per month, two per year

My reports to AN

In August 2016 for the first time in my life I reported an editor to ANI because they wrote a negative comment about me "as a person". The thread was closed with conclusion that I should prove they were wrong.
In September 2016 I reported an editor for violation of WP:3RR. They were blocked for 72 hours. (link)
On 4 September I reported an editor for violating WP:NPA and WP:Civility (diff). Although this violation was repeated after I advised the editor in question not to repeat such violations, they were not sanctioned, but only advised not to "insist on using the 'mentally disabled' wording" because they "are risking a block". Risking. Admin who wrote this advise also wrote one of the most motherly advises I have ever seen: "If you can get this angry people might start to wonder about your neutrality when editing Balkan topics." (diff). This was said to editor who repeatedly commented other editors as "mentally disabled" and having "problems with their brain control" because they "come from a country like Serbia, a society which is mostly famous for nationalism and propaganda."
On 13 September I reported (diff) an editor who tagged Kenneth Setton with better source tag and repeatedly marked substantial changes of text in articles with minor change tag. Since cited work had wrong year of publishing, tagging Setton with better source tag was described as "content dispute" and "simple error"
On 17 April 2017 I reported a speech which attacks a person or group on the basis of their nationality by an editor who attributed certain bad outlooks to groups of people, based on their nationality and proposed that this editor should be warned (diff). Result: Not a single admin participated in discussion nor accepted to even warn editor in question.
On 22 July 2017 I reported an editor (diff of my report) for repeated misuse of minor edit box, inspite they were warned not to do so by multiple editors. The report was closed with following words "The "behaviour" appears to have ceased. Nothing to do here."
On 16 April 2018 I reported an editor (who for many years systematically removes well cited texts from multiple articles if they do not correspond to their POV. This editor routinely uses the wrong (Serb) nationality of authors of sources as an excuse for such removal, regardless from the fact that in many cases the authors of sources used to cite removed texts are of other nationalities). My request stayed on ANI for about a week, but no admin responded.
On 5 August 2018 I reported an editor diff who repeatedly violated WP:BLP on wikipedia. My request stayed on ANI until it was archived because no admin responded.

Patient: Everywhere i touch it hurts.
Doctor: Yeah your finger is broken.

Interesting coincedences:

edit number 3 of ...jari editor in Resen, Macedonia
edit number 4 of .jarri..... editor in nearby Lake Prespa
edit number 10 of .jarri.... eidtor in Resen, Macedonia

We could have an endless list of "According to X he was this, according to Y he was that". Picking out only one such author to the exclusion of others would be obviously tendentious; providing the whole list would be idiotic. Either way, any such statement, if presented in the form and in the kind of context envisaged here, would still trigger the implication that we are treating the terms in the modern sense and as a mutually exclusive dichotomy. Any treatment in such terms would mean undue weight on a perceived "dispute" that exists only in your mind and nowhere else. We are currently not ascribing any ethnicity to him, and that's just fine. We are naming his place of origin (which is in Greece, undoubtedly); we are naming his family (which was Albanian, undoubtedly); no reliable source in the literature has so far felt it necessary to engage in any more discussion of what these facts mean in terms of ethnicity, beyond characterizing him in passing, so there is absolutely no reason for us to shoehorn more ethnicity-centered discussion into the article at this point. Anybody who tries to do so is an ideologically driven agenda-pusher.

this is from WP:ADMINACCT:

Administrators are accountable for their actions involving administrator tools, and unexplained administrator actions can demoralize other editors who lack such tools. Subject only to the bounds of civility, avoiding personal attacks, and reasonable good faith, editors are free to question or to criticize administrator actions. Administrators are expected to respond promptly and civilly to queries about their Wikipedia-related conduct and administrator actions and to justify them when needed.

This is from WP:ADMIN:

However, sustained or serious disruption of Wikipedia is incompatible with the status of administrator, and consistently or egregiously poor judgment may result in the removal of administrator status. Administrators should strive to model appropriate standards of courtesy and civility to other editors and to one another
