Re: Arise! (Flyer22, sockpuppetry & more)
Update: Koyla Butternut has been indefinitely blocked by Arbcom . To Koyla: people are for the most part aware, by this point, that Flyer faked her own death. Why does it matter so much that her entry at the deceased Wikipedian's page be removed? If you just wanted to prove it to Alison, email her. ...

Re: John Pack Lambert violates his topic ban
I don't know, that looks like a bit of a stretch to me. He's going around BLPs adding a category a minute, and one of them happens to be a priest, though it had nothing to do with what the article was actually about.

Re: Arbcom Elections 2022: It's that time again
AFAIK, and just for the record, Wikipediocracy does not, as an organizational entity, "endorse" Arbcom candidates. Well, in that case, here is the Official List of Wikipediocracy Endorsed Candidates: * Current arbs: Barkeep49, CaptainEek, L235, Primefac * Non-drama baity admins: GeneralNotability, ...

Re: Tamzin blocks Volunteer Marek
If people think you've got the righteous cause and the ones you are fighting are the "bad guys" then you can get away with stuff like reverting 5 times in 3 days to call someone a conspiracy theorist in Wikivoice with weak sourcing. And since the article subject, Aaron Mate, is also a "bad guy," it...

Re: Athaenara - Schadenfreude and Outrage
EDIT: TNT has resigned CU/OS at Meta, "in protest & with extreme disappointment in the committee's inability to handle this fairly." Why is "you can't fire me, I quit!" the response every Wikipedia power user seems to have in response to sanctions of any kind? Same kinda thing as all the people who...

Re: Athaenara - Schadenfreude and Outrage
I don't want to be a dick (and as I said previously, there have been some pretty massively transphobic comments on this thread, so please don't associate this with trans people or use it as a way to attack them), but is Tamzin actually professionally diagnosed with something that could cause "alter...

Re: Slate on the Tamzin RFA
After all's said and done, Tamzin seems to have done a fine job so far as admin. Most admin work is entirely apolitical, and frankly, boring. The controversy surrounding her RfA sent an incredibly clear message of "please don't touch American politics", which it looks like she has abided by so far,...

Your sockpuppetry Wanda, on the other hand, seems to have been much more effective. Congrats.WanderingWanda wrote: ↑Wed May 04, 2022 4:18 amI like how Flyer is determined to set her reputation (such as it is) on fire. She would've gotten away with faking her death if she just stayed off Wikipedia!

Re: Tamzin RfA
Down to 89% now, damn. She'll still pass, but it may provide enough of an asterisk on her RfA to keep her from using her admin tools anywhere near American politics, which I suppose the opposers could chalk up as a win.

Re: Washington DC shooter is a wiki editor active in multiple articles related to shootings
I have reason to suspect that the image at the top of this page may have been doctored. WordsWordsWords, can you tell us where you got it from? Here's a twitter user who got a similar screengrab of his account: https://twitter.com/HGTomato/status/1517682443976908800 Why do you think it was doctored?
