Since July 19, 2006, my more or less singular purpose at Wikipedia had been to clarify issues related to the collapse of the World Trade Center. As a result of the exercise of discretionary powers by a Wikipedia administrator under the terms of an ArbCom ruling, I was banned from editing all articles related to the September 11, 2001 attacks on April 21, 2008. By May 14, 2008, it was clear that the Arbitration Committee would not hear my appeal.--Thomas Basboll (talk) 08:18, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] No useful advice, sorry

Sorry I didn't get round to replying to your e-mail. I don't think I have any useful advice. Possibly if you think the Wikipedia pages in question are biased or incorrect, you could try and get a reputable external organisation to review them and make an assessment. As for your ban, my concern was to ensure that there was at least some response from the admin who served the ban, and a response from the arbitration committee, rather then just silence. If they did reject your appeal, I'm not sure where you go from there. I don't think this is very useful advice, but I hope it helps. There may also be some arbitrators willing to explain their views by e-mail. Carcharoth (talk) 13:01, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
