In order to be a "good Wikipedian," Moulton, you will have to be a better politician and diplomat. I'm not saying I agree with that, but it seems to be the only way for you to get unblocked. That is, if you want to be unblocked. Poor Lar and Dihydrogen Monoxide/Giggy are putting their wiki-reputations on the line for you.
As much as I hate to admit it, you are at the ID Crowd's mercy and will have to accept their terms before there is any chance of you being unblocked.
This is why I don't edit WP much. Too much drama.* The whole system is about favor and nepotism, not merit or knowledge.
*I prefer to be in the audience than a character in the play! (IMG:
