01[01:06] <john_cons> I wanted to whistleblow about this please. Link: http://no.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brukerdiskusjon:Johncons&diff=3498327&oldid=3498315
[01:07] <Rjd0060> john_cons: You really should stop going on about this on IRC.
01[01:07] <john_cons> ok, but where is the right place to deal with this?
01[01:08] <john_cons> i've even sent e-mails to jimmy wales, but noone deals with this
01[01:09] <john_cons> brb
03[01:10] * kylu[afk] is now known as kylu
[01:10] <NuclearWarfare> whatis no
[01:10] <NuclearWarfare> Hmm
[01:10] <NuclearWarfare> I would think that Norwegian Wikipedia has its own community
[01:10] <+StewardBot> 06(bot) 03Jusjih changed user rights for UltraBot@mlwiktionary from 04(none) to 04bot, import with the following comment: 07[[Steward_requests/Bot_status]], 2009-09-27
[01:10] <kylu> it does.
02[01:10] * Andre_Engels (n=chatzill@wikimedia/andre-engels) Quit ("ChatZilla 0.9.85 [Firefox 3.5.3/20090824101458]")
01[01:11] <john_cons> i've been banned on norwegian wiki, in connection with the incident i mentioned, so i can't bring it up there
[01:12] <kylu> john_cons: You do understand that stewards have zero power to decide things like this, right?
01[01:13] <john_cons> yes, that's alright, only asking for advice 🙂
[01:13] <kylu> You're rather stuck with discussing the issue with that community.
[01:14] <kylu> Jimmy makes no rules there, his "kingship" is limited to his position on en.wikipedia and other projects that claim him.
01[01:14] <john_cons> it's not the grandiosa-stuff i want to discuss, it's the censorship i want to _whistleblow_ about, i'm banned from that community, like i explained, in conection with the incident i mentioned
[01:14] <kylu> you've done that now, thank you.
01[01:14] <john_cons> that's alright i just want to know how to go forward with whistleblowing in the global wiki community
[01:14] <kylu> I understand you put that on your blog also.
01[01:15] <john_cons> yes, ok, i'll wait for a while
01[01:15] <john_cons> and see if something happens
01[01:15] <john_cons> and let it rest for a while
01[01:15] <john_cons> thanks for the advice
01[01:15] <john_cons> bye!
[01:15] <kylu> ciao.
