this project, and I'm a /e/ user. As I know the project quite well, I thought I could contribute some useful contents to the /e/ Knowledge page. I've always tried to do it using appropriate sources. Also, I had a recent talk with editor
Newslinger how I could improve my contributions, and I started to understand better the primary and secondary sources etc. But then I've been blocked. Also, it seems that I'm accused in some way to have contributed to the Gael Duval page on Knowledge. This is surprising because that's true that I contributed to this page but I don't see why I don't have the right to do this. It's true that I'm a long-time follower of what he's been doing in the open source world, and that's the reason why I contributed some interesting information to his page, but what is the problem exactly here? I don't know him personally, and I'm not involved in his projects. Also I don't understand why I'm harassed by Yae4 this. He is very agressive and I don't think he's doing anything positive behaving this way. However I'm willing to improve, if I'm doing something wrong but being blocked this way, with just a notice, is a very brutal action, I really don't understand.

of time, so I'm editing about what I know, when I'm getting connected to wikipedia. What's wrong here? You claims really sound to me like a trial of intent. 2) There are clearly some people around the /e/ page who have decided to destroy this page, replacing balanced and neutral content by oriented content. In particular there is a user that 1) clearly has a bias against the project (his account is dedicated to this...). 2) is editing content against
Knowledge rules (non neutral). Why nobody is considering his case? I'm super upset about this, and I don't understand why Knowledge moderators don't moderate this guy.

Regarding myself: my bias is that 1) I'm interested in open source software and various topics around privacy, low level development etc. Regarding Duval, I know about him since he created the
Mandrake Linux distribution. And I discovered /e/ last year and started to use it. True I don't have a lot

Hello, I noticed that I have been blocked following action from Yae4 user. I don't understand exactly why I'm blocked actually, and I didn't have any opportunity to defend myself in this case :-( Again, as I already explained here I'm not affiliated *at all* with the /e/ project. I'm interested in
