[edit] Titanic
I removed your contribution there. I'm not sure if it was intended to be trolling, but it was certainly not calculated to be helpful. --John (talk) 01:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Re this. You are still talking about different species. Try to comprehend the very simple concept that within species variation is different to between species variation. You might find it helpful to find out what a species is, as you don't even seem to be aware of the basics of taxonomy. If you insist on commenting on scientific concepts try to at least have an mediocre grasp of the subject. That's why I personally try to only edit articles about things that I know something about.

[edit] Blocked
You have been blocked for a period of
24 hours for
racial and ethnic commentary that is incompatible with Wikipedia's aims. In particular, references to Jews being "euthanized" as if they were stray dogs and cats at the pound have no place in civil society.
[1] To contest this block, please reply here on your
talk page by adding the text {{unblock|
your reason here}} along with the reason you believe the block is unjustified, or email the blocking administrator or any administrator from
this list.

- Per discussion, the block length has now been adjusted to indefinite. —Kurykh 18:22, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | rangeblocks | unblock | contribs | deleted contribs) has asked to be unblocked, but an administrator has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock request while you are blocked.
Request reason: "Please unblock me. A comment I made, on a talkpage, was misconstrued as being anti-semitic, when the intention was quite on the contrary! It intended as complimentary towards the Jewish people. I was also not even given the slightest chance to explain myself before being blocked. That is extremely un-American. This whole mess could have been avoided had the offended user simply asked me to clarify what I was saying. I deeply apologise to anyone who was offended by my comment, it certainly was not my intention to insult the Jewish race or at all belittle the horrors of their slaughter during the holocaust."
Decline reason: "As noted in the discussion, your block is based on continual disruptive and bigoted commentary. — IrishGuy talk 00:42, 28 March 2008 (UTC)"

Request reason: "Could I please have a Jewish editor review my case, if he would be so kind. It would be up to him whether or not my comment was offensive or complimentary. Furthermore, an indefinite block seems like complete overkill for such an issue"
Decline reason: "Asking for a Jewish administrator to review the block is compounding the error. I held out a smidgen of hope that you might recognize why your comments were hurtful and offensive and your indef could be reduced at some point. Now I'm not so sure. — Ronnotel (talk) 13:08, 28 March 2008 (UTC)"

- Note; this editor has had previous unblock requests "reviewed" by accounts who have subsequently been indef blocked. These "reviews" have been removed from this page, but are still in the page history. Please note that one such "review" advised the blockee that the review had been agreed and the block lifted, when this was not the case. Whatever the points regarding Confederate till Death's block and review requests, please ensure that any further unblock requests are dealt with our usual civility and respect. Thank you. LessHeard vanU (talk) 13:36, 28 March 2008 (UTC) Addendum; I would clarify that the requests and reviews now appearing on the page above are unrelated to the reviews that have been since removed.
