“

The term "wiki-stalking" has been coined to describe following a contributor around the wiki, editing the same articles as the target, with the intent of causing annoyance or distress to another contributor. Reading another user's contribution log is not in itself harassment; those logs are public for good reason. In particular, proper use of an editor's history includes (but is not limited to) fixing errors or violations of Wikipedia policy or correcting related problems on multiple articles

Re:

90% of the pages Bardcom edits, Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Bardcom may be a good place to begin. EmpireForever (talk) 00:33, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

You know rather a lot about the situation for an account so new to Wikipedia. While I want to assume good faith that you stumbled across the debate by accident, I must also consider that you were either recruited to join in this discussion by another involved party, or that you are another party looking to join in the discussion with an account with a clean edit summary.

Regardless of why you made the account, your edit history—including the accusatory talk page comments and the edit summaries that accuse another editor of trying to "flout policy"—give the appearance that you're trying to bait said user into a edit that's over-the-line. And that is a problem: such conduct is a breach of the civility policy.

If you're here to work with other editors and build Wikipedia together, then welcome. If you're here to work against other editors and provoke them, I would encourage you to reconsider. —C.Fred (talk) 00:49, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Arbitration

Thanks for letting me know. I've added a statement. CarterBar (talk) 18:00, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

I have blocked you for 24 hours for edit-warring with HighKing (talk · contribs) on various articles on the issue of the naming of the islands in the Northeast Atlantic. Although you did not at any stage that I could see violate the 3-revert-rule, you were unquestionably edit-warring. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. CIreland (talk) 01:21, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair cop guv, as we say in the British Isles. EmpireForever (talk) 01:23, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I would like to take part in the discussion here (link) as I have information I would like to add as a matter of urgency. I will not edit any article or other page for the remainder of my block.

Decline reason:

This is not a reason to unblock you; see WP:GAB. That discussion does not concern you. You may participate in it as soon as your block expires. — Sandstein 20:14, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Is there anybody out there? EmpireForever (talk) 20:07, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Per undertaking not to edit war but to discuss changes
