Ist das Deine schrottige Maschinenübersetzung? Die wurde bereits schnellgelöscht - noch so ein Fall und Du wirst wie jeder andere Vandale gemeldet. AN 07:31, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be
blocked from editing Wikipedia under the
three-revert rule, which states that nobody may
revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. --

I have blocked both you and User:Samuel Luo for an hour for violating WP:3RR. A content dispute is not vandalism. I have made it a short block in the hope that you will both cool down before your blocks expire. -- Sam Blanning (talk) 23:38, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
During the April 20, 2006, welcoming ceremonies outside the White House for Chinese president Hu Jintao, which opened his official visit to the capitol, a Falun Gong supporter repeatedly interrupted the event by shouting in English and Chinese. Because she was stationed atop a grandstand and blocked on all sides by camera equipment and ladders, it took at least two minutes for Secret Service agents to drag her away. Reuters later identified the woman as Wang Wenyi, a reporter for The Epoch Times, a Chinese and English newspaper run by the Falun Gong. [1]
"President Bush, stop him from persecuting the Falun Gong!" she shouted at one point, followed by "Hu, your days are numbered", in Chinese. She was also heard yelling "Stop the torture and killings!" and "Falun Dafa is good". During her protests, she unfurled and waved a yellow and red Falun Gong banner. [2]
On April 21, Wang was charged with a federal misdemeanor of harassing a foreign official, punishable by up to six months in jail and a fine of $5,000. She was released without bail pending further proceedings. [3]
Also during Hu's visit in Washington, D.C., hundreds of banner-waving protesters loudly demonstrated against Hu's visit outside the White House gates. The clamor was heard faintly during an elaborate lunch Bush gave in Hu's honor. [4]
On April 19, Falun Gong supporters protested Hu's visit to Washington state, using sound trucks to blare messages into his hotel accusing Chinese internal security forces of torture, organ harvesting, and other atrocities. Protesters also appeared near Microsoft's headquarters earlier in the day, which was hosting Hu during his visit. [5]
Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you.
I understand that you're upset with Mr. Blanning, but please do not make personal attacks (which include accusing him of not working in good faith ("being deliberately deceptive") and of being a bad adminstrator).
Please resolve disputes through the appropriate channels (which I see you've started to do by asking for an advocate) rather than taking out your frustration on another editor.
Thanks.

Jeff, Could you help with the Falun Gong article, the pages are being vandalized and the admins dont seem to care... people are even using sockpuppets to repeatedly revert all good edits.. kindly help.. Dilip rajeev 00:23, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
I noticed you had a request for Advocate if you tell me exactly how you think I can help I will do my best.(I promise nothing b/c I'm still investigating both sides of the story) Mahoga ny
You're right and once again I'm sorry we must meet like this being that I strongly support almost all admin. actions. Cheers, Mahoga ny
Hi, I brought up this incident on WP:AN/I. Considering the block is now over, and the disputed section seems to be no longer disputed, is there anything else current regarding this particular request? - Keith D. Tyler ¶ ( AMA) 20:19, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
