I think Deacon has grossly abused his privileges here and we are in a 
good position to make him pay for it. I am hesitating to start a thread 
on this at ANI myself, to avoid this being framed as "Piotrus vs 
Deacon", I'd suggest that either Radek should start it (and inform 
Jacurek) or Jacurek should start it himself (I advised him to do so at 
his talk page, as he notified me of the problem on my talk page).

I don't think we should turn this into "Deacon is evil" yet - I have a 
big pile of diffs on him but our goal here should be to show his bad 
judgement, restore Jacurek rollback, remove him from Dig's list and 
possibly get Deacon on the list, since his actions here are creating 
battleground.

We should avoid saying he is against Polish editors in general, but we 
should point out he is far from uninvolved due to his involvement in 
past arbcoms. Our arguments should be as follows:
* Deacon is an involved admin, hence he should not be the one to take 
administrative actions against Jacurek, that includes both removing his 
rollback and placing him on the Digwuren's list, which specifically 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Digwuren#Discretionary_sanctions) 
states that placing on the list should be done by an "uninvolved 
administrator". Deacon is involved, as a leading party in 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Eastern_European_disputes#Deacon_of_Pndapetzim_admonished
* Jacurek has not done anything to warrant either of the above; he has 
not abused his rollback and a proper procedure for removing rollback 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_rollback - report 
to ANI) and on to putting one on Digwuren's list (it has always, in the 
past, been a report to AE and a matter was handled by a neutral AE 
admin) were not followed: here Jacurek was removed from rollback and 
placed on the list with the entire procedure skipped, with no 
diffs/evidence produced for Digwuren's list produced (and diffs for 
rollback dubious) and to top it all, it was done without any warning by 
an involved admin!
* Thus, Deacon's action regarding Jacurek should be reverted; and Deacon 
should be admonished for abusing his admin rights and possibly placed on 
Digwuren's list himself for actions (above) and incivil, bad faithed 
comments, both creating a battleground (comments:
[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2FIncidents&diff=295085030&oldid=295084717 
accusing an editor of being "a hard-core edit warrior"])

I suggest that the ani thread should be entitled "abuse of admin 
privileges". As winning this is crucial, not only for Jacurek but for 
taking down Deacon,  I suggest we try to mobilize all of our resources 
here - but let's not spam the thread (particularly by users in 
not-so-good standing), instead I'd suggest we reach out to friendly 
admins and ask them for involvement (it may also be worthwile to see if 
Deacon has other enemies and inform them of this thread - he is involved 
in some other arbcoms and such). I'll be contacting a few people as soon 
as the ANI thread is posted.

PS. As agreed before, I've asked Jacurek if he wouldn't like to join our 
email list.
