Would "bitches" allow russavia back?

Unread post by neved » Sun Jun 08, 2014 11:27 pm

The last time Russavia (T-C-L) came back after being blocked for almost a year, screaming "hey bitches i'm back"
So the question is if "bitches" would allow russavia back this time too?
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?tit ... ck_request
Unblock request

Orologio blu.svg
This blocked user is asking that his block be reviewed:

Russavia (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • abuse filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:
I'd like to propose that the block on myself be lifted. I was blocked in June 2013, and the block was put up for community discussion, with an immediate consensus supporting the block. The reason for the block is that I had drafted an article that discussed Jimmy Wales in a way that offended him, and included supporting media (which I solicited) hosted on Wikimedia Commons.

The media was removed from English Wikipedia (but not Commons). I am not seeking to reopen the discussion about whether that content should be restored to Wikipedia, and since the block I have not pursued the issue in a disruptive manner. Rather, I have made valuable posts to my talk page, highlighting places in which unrelated Wikipedia content is out of compliance with our copyright policies.
I have consistently made high quality contributions to both Wikipedia and Commons, and whilst it is true that I have been involved in some controversies, the depth of my commitment to the vision of our projects is amply demonstrated by the majority of my contributions. This block should be lifted so I can continue to engage as a good faith member of our community. Thank you for your consideration. Russavia (talk) 16:07, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
BTW that unblock request was "declined" by an impersonator of Wil
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?tit ... ck_request
This user has repeatedly violated the bounds of decency and propriety. His trolling with the Pricasso painting was well beyond the pale. He should stay blocked until the heat death of the universe. DO not unblock without speaking directly with the Executive Director. Regards, Wil

Of course it was somebody impersonating Wil.
Real Wil is happily editing (building a better encyclopedia)
Everyone, I don't have time to keep coming back here to "vote" on one informal RfC after another. I'm trying to build a better encyclopedia. My goal for this month was to hit the "very active contributors" threshold by doing 100 edits on the encyclopedia itself. Now, I'm just trying to keep up with these silly off-topic debates on this talk page. Could we please just settle this? Formal RfC, ArbCom, whatev's. I don't care. I just want to spend more of my time building a better encyclopedia than dealing with silly wikipolitics. I'll be perfectly frank here: I have better things to do both on-wiki and IRL. Should I now create an informal RfC to see if everyone agrees with me? Thanks. ,Wil (talk) 03:30, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
I was thinking about that "build a better encyclopedia"... Could something good be built from something that is as unfair as wikipedia is?
Once again I'm using a comparison with the Soviet Union. I am sure many first communists genuinely tried to build a better world.
They did not see, or rather did not want to see Stalin's concentration camps, secreter tribunals, forced collectivization, secrecy, lying, dishonesty and corruption of their leaders, lack of freedoms, abuse of human rights and so on, and so on.
They were busy, building a better world.
Of course the severity and the numbers of atrocities on wikipedia cannot be compared to atrocities of the Soviet Union,
but wikipedia with its two dozen bullies who call themselves "the community" also has great potentials to ruin lives of the editors and the subjects of BLP.
I believe that no encyclopedia can be built in such environment as wikipedia has.

It will be a pity if russavia is not allowed back. He mastered to be a great trolling clown, and lately I am reading wikipedia mostly for a good laugh, the only thing it is good at.

Who else but russavia could have came up with this suggestion for DYK hook http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk: ... _the_Roads
We should then have the hook,...DYK...Vladimir Zhirinovsky put a ring on his big cock, and then placed it between Ms XXX's tits? Let's see how you guys would handle that one eh. Lighten up.....geeeez. Russavia ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) 22:21, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

and who else but russavia could have said this at Jimbo's talk
When I masturbate in public, I don't really feel any different than when I do it in private; can you possibly tell us why when you masturbate in public, it hurts? Y u no be Russavia ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) 19:42, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Of course russavia is also a dirty, dishonest bully, but I believe there's much more harm by allowing him to keep his administrative tools on commons than allowing him to English Wikipedia. I mean one bully more one less who cares.

See also his new sockpuppet This cowboy's running from himself.

Like Kumioko and many others before him, Russavia has decided to simply ignore his indefinite block. Newyorkbrad (T-C-L), you should probably start preparing a legal threat. AGK (T-C-L), I think Russavia is self-employed, so to contact his employer you can use wikipedia's "email this user" function. It probably won't accomplish much, though.

You forgot this sock that I started to use whilst the unblock discussion was going on. The pumped up little squirts were discussing whether they should set a 6 or 12 month period before I can request an unblock again, so the only thing left to say is......

Yeah indefinite blocks only affect the law abiding citizen so to speak. Nothing really prevents people from dodging it and certainly a large number of banned editors imply waited a few months and came back, some likely went on to become admins.

The fact is the structure and purpose of Wikipedia really prevent blocks being effective. You either let people edit or you don't, there really is no middle ground regardless of how hard they might try. In my case, i know I will never be allowed back and I more or less accept that. It doesn't mean I will stop editing and it doesn't mean they can do anything about it. My ban will never be effective because I choose for it not to be. If they block one account I'll simply create another 10. All they need to stop me is unblock me and that will be it since my ban was nothing more than abuse from bullies. They wont though because that sets the precedent that they concede. So I will continue for the next several years, they will continue to catch the ones I want them to catch and it will waste a lot of peoples time. Hopefully they figure that out at some point, probably not.

I said all that to say this, its the same with Russavia and a lot of others. Its nothing to do with their editing, its political. Russavia and myself share the commonality that we are politically and socially outcasts on Wikipedia. Both for different reasons but its not likely to change. So they block us because we disagree and that in turn causes us to turn into vandals, trolls, sockmasters and disruptions. The cycle is largely caused by the Wikipedia community and their abusive nature.

That's an interesting theory, but I'm gonna say... no.

If they approved of Russavia doing that, what possible negative motivator could they use on everybody else?

They are far too wimpy to do anything more forceful than 'ban' or block.'

Maybe a little character assassination on the side...

Anything Binksternet says I pretty much think the opposite so if he says that Russavia shouldn't come back that's proof enough for me to have him unblocked immediately. Binky is one of the most poisonous personalities on Wikipedia and it defies logic how he hasn't been banned. But then again, he runs a lot of new editors off the site and generally acts like a jerk in discussions which seems to be acceptable behavior these days.

Someone has to do something, although I doubt anything will happen. Russavia has too many friends, some innocent but too trusting.

Someone has to do something, although I doubt anything will happen. Russavia has too many friends, some innocent but too trusting.
**sigh** It's hopeless (permalink). Commons is easy pickings for corrupt, deceitful individuals such as Russavia. Russavia lies to them, and they still love and protect him.

Until the WMF steps on the commons admins ... hard ... this kind of nonsense will continue.

And now "Blackmane" is comparing him to Mbz. That's just insulting.

Who knows? I guess we're about to find out though, as he's stepping up his socking game and beginning to annoy his supporters.

And - somewhat hilariously - he's starting to troll by sending me personalized messages in the useragent data :rotfl: That's pretty creative, tho' he's not the first to do that.

If Russavia had commissioned a decent artist, or even a reasonably competent indecent one, to provide a caricature of Jimbo Wales, he might have got a vote from me. But he didn't, and frankly what he did was witless and pretty goddamned offensive. To add insult to injury it is unfortunately way up there in J's beloved Google rankings.

Can't make Russavia out, essentially an exhibitionist (well yes) I guess. I do know I truly don't care.

I thought – despite myself – that it was pretty funny. As was the Wikimedia Foundation board's resulting "Pricasso amendment", invoked for Jimbo only.

Russavia also did some solid work on the Belfer Center matter.

It is useful to highlight that. Russavia has an image with me of being a basement dwelling troll of little intellect (sorry, Russ!) but that work is of good quality, well investigated and well written with sound arguments being presented.

It begs the question why it is that Wikipedia and its siblings manage to create an environment where the worst sides of people are brought out rather than the best. What a waste!

I shall try and remodel my mental image to Russavia, the clever troll.
Time for a new signature.

Perhaps I shouldn't be so censorious about something I don't the know the history of, but when I actually looked at the video I was pretty gobsmacked. And Pricasso as an artist really sucks.

There's something about Russavia my instinct tells me not to feed. Was amused though by the Wikipedia response you linked. Thanks for that.

I have an open question for russavia that has been bothering me for quite some time. Russavia, you may respond it on my or your own meta talk.
So here's my question:

Russavia, you said:
A jury of my own peers? What an interesting trial that was then, when the accused was prevented from defending themselves, and when they attempted to, they were basically told "No, you can't do that", and were then duly escorted out of the courtroom, and locked out, whilst the trial continued. Stalin would be proud!en:User:Newyorkbrad is apparently a lawyer, so go ask him if what he participated in was a kangaroo court or not, and whether he thinks I had a fair ability to defend myself, not only accusations made by several people in that community, but also against accusations he himself made. russavia (talk) 05:36, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Russavia, I cannot agree with you more, but I'd like to ask you please why, if you understand so well what is a show trial, what is a kangaroo court, why, russavia, you supported my ban, when I was not able to defend myself even at my own talk page?
