Negative and positive rights (T-H-L) - no real lede, not written like an encyclopedia article (beginning a sentence in the first paragraph with "So"), potentially confusing

MadManz

Seems like they're talking about the ratio of support/oppose votes

Marokwitz (T-C-L) using ChatGPT under that AfD

He has 16,000 edits, but seems to be somewhat of a legacy user

MadManz

There's something wrong with the way this person writes ledes: Thomas J. "Tom" Burrell[1] (born March 18, 1939)[2] founder and chairman emeritus of Burrell Communications, became one of the first African Americans in the field of advertising.[3] Flatbush Jewish Journal (FJJ) is a Brooklyn-based week...

IPv4 editing was only disabled for a couple of minutes. Automatic (edit filter) reports at AIV just before editing was disabled/emergencycaptcha was reintroduced

WMF global bans cannot be repealed. I believe T&S briefly hinted at the possibility of implementing an appeal process around two years ago but that seems to have been forgotten already. I would recommend a quick look at this user's talk page for anyone wondering how little/much they care about being...

Women in the Mexican drug war (T-H-L) (very) Poor sentence structure, also a lack of coherence after the lede, listing information without greater context

MadManz

Not at all. I would wager that at least 1/10 of accounts with 1k+ edits registered after a certain point in time are operated by users who had previously been blocked indefinitely. And the ratio seems to only increase, sockpuppets calling out other sockpuppets...

MadManz

their post history over on sucks does not leave a good impression either - with thread titles like "It's 3 days till Hitler's Death Day!" and "Tomorrow is Hitler's Birthday! Sieg Heil!"

MadManz

Is this the first time an unblock request has boomeranged into consensus for a community ban (or any other sort of sanction beyond the block)? Cannot recall seeing this happen before but I am sure it has

MadManz

I've never seen a tweet be included in a Wikipedia article as an example of public (coming from someone not otherwise mentioned by name within the article) commentary on the subject

MadManz

Has an enwp admin ever been credibly accused of paid editing? Not that that would exactly be the same as this, or that Jimbo's claim is necessarily credible. It feels like it should have happened at least once.

Oh yeah, bumping this just to gawk.
But the links are all dead, so there's nothing to see here.

between this and rodhullandemu, it seems a lot of wp editors will defend anyone who edits the same language wiki/same project as them

yo @beebs can you block kintetsu? or arbcom consensus needed?

even if hes not a pedophile, hes a kkk member? wp:nonazis?

i wrote a thread about this guy back in 2018 too i think, dont feel like looking but it shouldnt be hard to find

MadManz

remember back in 2013-2014 when a bunch of WPO articles were written exposing various enwp editors pedophilic behavior? well all of them were blocked, except for one - Kintetsubuffalo , who is not only most likely a nonce, but also a literal klan member, he's not very active anymore but he still edi...

This is 100% because of LTAs. some of them are really obsessed with jimbo's page, his talk page is probably going soon too

Tbf ExplosiveResults should have just been blocked for being a far right weirdo none of this would have happened

The Jessica Yaniv page should be deleted. dont doubt that this person is trans gender but its obvious all of her online activity is part of a sad attention seeking marketing scheme, wikipedia shouldnt feed into that

MadManz

it's some troll being a troll. I don't know that I'd call User: Blacklisablack a "troll" per se. She showed up in January 2019 to write a decent-enough article on artist S. P. Harper , and then left, having not made any public complaints or accusations against anybody (unless they're on now-deleted...

i mean a lot of LTAs/sock masters see wikipedia like an mmorpg, keep vandalizing, fill up user name logs, get an lta page, srg/aiv/uaa reports etc i think the account report system should be private and LTA has been dead for years so might as well delete most of it

MadManz

the way vandals are currently dealt with on wikipedia/wikimedia is way too addictive and only makes the LTA situation worse, sure theres weirdos like the george reeves guy who will disrupt the projects no matter what you do but stuff like the fuerdai vandal and my royal young could have been complet...
