Discretionary sanctions
editAs a result of an arbitration case administrators can impose discretionary sanctions on any editor working on articles concerning the September 11 attacks. I understand this will seem less than welcoming, and I'm sorry for that. Hopefully you'll find it better to know about the sanctions than not to know. It doesn't mean you've done anything wrong. Here's the standard welcome template, with useful links:

Tom, thank you for the welcome and the warning. It does sound a bit like some draconian censorship however I can fully appreciate that deterioration of this article is a risk and limits are required. Nevertheless, I stand by the criticisms I have made concerning the neutrality of the article. I think I have provided abundant evidence of the bias which excludes all credence to any theory of planted explosive even though it can be argued that they were planted by terrorists (which actually happened in 1993). I am also disturbed that contributors like MONGO are permitted to freely use slander in discussions without any sort of reprimand while threatening me with lock out for disagreeing.
The events of September 11 are extremely provocative of emotions and have resulted in two wars costing 6,000 additional American lives and at least $1 trillion dollars. The importance of the complete truth of what happened that day is immeasurable. If a public information source such as Wikipedia is unable to show less bias than the corporate controlled "mainstream media", then perhaps our future as a free nation is not too bright.
