Just wanted to clarify that my endorsement is of the bit "It is, in my personal opinion, inappropriate and very counterproductive to start a RFC like this when the parties are about to engage in a mediation." While I am mostly undecided of my views of the issues of contention I should note that as a transsexual, I am not completely disinterested in the topics. I should also add that area of Wikipedia that I normally focus on (Colors) is also an area that Dicklyon does and thus have mostly though not always agreed with him in edits of those topics in the past. Please take this into account on weighing my input in this matter. PaleAqua (talk) 05:05, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
I almost withdrew from that mediation you all who thought that was a good thing to endorse would have been the prime movers behind it. I took that as a clear message, weather I should have or not, that for whatever reason (which I strongly suspect is the disparate socioeconomic status of me an Dicklyon) that I should just take his behavior just so we can get along. The to be blocked in fact just for using his name, and to have reblocking threatend by a admin who IMO is likely homophobic and does not really realize they are (by their repeated and defended use of a word towards me that has no good meanings when used towards a person anyway.) Let's just say I am on edge. Your actions brought me there. If it looks like my views are not being given equal weight as all others I will walk away from that on account of your little endorsement's. I will not be treated like a second class citizen in this day and age on a day when someone of my race, from my city will become the president of the United States of America. --Hfarmer (talk) 12:36, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
