This user is tired of silly drama on Wikipedia Information

I live in Spain; my mother language is Spanish, and have never been in Australia. A few months ago I started to contribute to Wikipedia but... a couple of Wikipedia administrators confused me with a banned Australian Wikipedian and, without any sort of IP check whatsoever, blocked me! Although another admin unblocked me, I was never vindicated. Yes: I complained in many boards. But no one listened to me, even if I challenged the blocking admins to point out to a single disrupting diff from me (I have never disrupted any page whatsoever), or to run IP checks. I was ignored.

Therefore, I will retire from editing Wikipedia --for ever.

By the way, the administrators who confused me with the banned Australian Wikipedian were very zealous in censoring evidence concerning infanticide in Australia. Below I add the great chunks they removed from the Infanticide article:

Whole section censored!: Information

Oceania

Infanticide among the autochthone people in the Oceania islands is widespread. In some areas of the Fiji islands up to 50% of newborn infants were killed. ^[1] In the 19th century Ugi, in the Solomon islands almost 75% of the indigenous children had been brought from adjoining tribes due to the high incidence rate of infanticide, a unique feature of these tribal societies. ^[2] In another Solomon island, San Cristóbal, the firstborn was considered "ahubweu" and often buried alive. ^[3]

As a rationale for their behavior, some parents in British New Guinea complained: "Girls [...] don't become warriors, and they don't stay to look for us in our old age." ^[4]

Australia

According to the anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski's book on indigenous Australians, "infanticide is practiced among all Australian natives." ^[5] Brough Smyth, a 19th century researcher, estimated that in Victoria about 30% of the births resulted in infanticide. ^[6] Mildred Dickeman concurs that that figure is accurate in other Australia tribes as a result of a surplus of the birthrate. ^[7] In Queensland a tribal woman could have children after the age of thirty. In other places, babies would be killed. ^{[8][ dubious – discuss]} The Aranda in the Northern Territory used the method of choking the newborn with coal, sand or kill her with a stick. ^[9] Twins were always killed by the Arrernte in central Australia. ^[9] Aram Yengoyan calculated that, in Western Australia, the Pitjandjara people killed 19% of their newborns. ^[10]

Polynesia

In ancient Polynesian societies infanticide was common. ^[11] Families were supposed to rear no more than two children. Writing about the natives, Raymond Firth noted: "If another child is born, it is buried in the earth and covered with stones". ^[12]

Hawaii

In Hawaii infanticide was a socially sanctioned practice before the Christian missions. ^[13] Infanticidal methods included strangling the children or, more frequently, burying them alive. ^[14]

Tahiti

Infanticide was quite intense in Tahiti. ^[11] Methods included suffocation, neck breaking and strangulation. ^[15]

Two more removals when I was illegally blocked:

Lucien Lévy-Brühl noted that, because of fear of a drought, if a baby was born feet first in British East Africa, she or he was smothered. ^[16] The Tswana people did the same since they feared the newborn would bring ill fortune to the parents. ^[17] Similarly, William Sumner noted that the Vadshagga killed children whose upper incisors came first. ^[18]

It has been estimated that 40% of newborn babies were killed in Kyūshū. ^[19]

In The Child in Primitive Society, Nathan Miller wrote in the 1920s that among the Kuni tribe every mother had killed at least one of her children. ^[20] Child sacrifice was practiced as late as 1929 in Zimbabwe, where a daughter of the tribal chief used to be sacrificed as a petition of rain. ^[21]
