Thank you Magma. However I'm still blocked. Probably Robinsonbecky did not free the isp block. That happens a lot when ISPs are also blocked, they have to be specifically reversed.

The additional blog *would* have helped. As would a deadline for Deletion Discussions followed up by a decision by either consensus, Vote (not polls, they can be manipulated), or Determination by vote from a couple of Admins (beyond their participation in providing their opinions and thoughts along the way).

Villains is a wikia with a large and active community, and Vote Threads is a very successful practice on others your size and larger. And by having a deadline, will provide everyone (myself included) both structure and understanding that something is Discussed then Decided in a timely manner and not open-ended.

I know several pages mentioned on your blog have been deleted, but there are a couple which, while the leaning is there to keep, has not really had a Decision declared.

Finally, regarding "too serious with the Rules", I have to say: everyone needs to be. Especially the admins. Otherwise you have opinions such as found here which expresses a disregard for the rules. Or feel them "outdated".

As for "Spamming", I'll let you decide if that was what I was doing, or was I challenging the validity of pages which the rules I had access to did not seem to fully justify their inclusion. As I've stated several times, if a page belongs, it can withstand both challenge and discussion. And pages were slipping in which shouldn't have been there. And by sticking to Talks, Blogs, and forums, any future challenges can be pointed to already discussed determinations. This is where just sticking to summary comments fall short. Much harder to find threads of summary comments and link to them, especially if people are not properly providing reasons.

Finally, it would be nice if both the '''Forum:Villains?? Or simply "antagonists"?? page can be restored (can't see who deleted it, but it shows I started by asking questions and permissions), and if the community could be addressed about my actions, the reasons for them, and that challenges such as Deletion Candidates cannot''' be "abused" if instructions are followed properly. This not only give me structure, but assures the community that such a structure is in place and valuable.
