<br>
</div>Lee, I removed your admin privileges to stop you from continuing to<br>
edit the protected page describing our membership process.<br>
<br>
You edited the membership page, adding incorrect information, ignoring<br>
the notice that the page should only be edited as the result of a<br>
consensus discussion. When I rolled back your changes and asked you to<br>
stop, you admitted that you weren't at the consensus discussion,<br>
hadn't actually read any notes about it, and were just adding<br>
information that you thought was similar to what had been discussed.<br>
Then you edited the page again, so I removed your admin privileges.<br>
<br>
Was it also you (IP 71.135.45.119) who edited the anti-harassment<br>
policy page? Perhaps it was someone else. In any event, if<br>
71.135.45.119 is reading: the text on that page is *also* the result<br>
of a consensus process, and should not be edited. In fact, the page<br>
has a banner across the top letting readers know about the policy's<br>
trial period, and how to contribute on Github, which is where we<br>
agreed to work on changes.<br>
