Sirthomas: There is no need to be condescending as it won't be helping the situation any better.

As stated, VSTF cannot gauge the relevance of edits. Or rather, the mass removal of edits in this case. Let's first go over a few facts of what happened, facts that you conveniently did not list.

1) You massed removed content as an IP (with no other edits other than removing content). Which is typically a good sign of common vandalism in the line of VSTF work.

2) Lady Lostris first reverted your edit at 19:51. Which should of been your first warning as what you were doing was a sign of vandalism.

3) Instead of stopping there, you ignored the revert and removed content (with no explanation might I add) again at 19:51. Moments after she reverted your edit. Which is why you were blocked, due to repeating the action again.

You were not giving any reason or indication that your edit was "good faith". You simply blanked a page (twice) even after your first edit was reverted. The very page you linked is even against you in your actions.

"With large proposed deletions or replacements, it may be best to suggest changes in a discussion, lest the original author be discouraged from posting again. One person's improvement is another's desecration, and nobody likes to see their work destroyed without warning."

All in all, the best suggestion to take is to the local admins of WoWWiki as recommended by Lady Lostris herself, to determine if your block was justified or not. From a VSTF standpoint, you were blanking pages (without any reasoning) and continued to remove content even after you should of taken indication that your edits were unwanted. The VSTF will not unblock you as you were matching the description of vandalism.
