Re: Stephen Harrison is releasing a book about Wikipedia in August
https://www.stephenharrison.com/the-editors It's a NOVEL. Instead of spewing his usual propaganda, he's going to make fiction about Wikipedian-like freaks. I detect incoming cringe here. That nit can barely write "plain journalism" and making a fictional story seems like he wants to screw himself.....

Re: New WPO blogpost - "Nihonjoe Has Been Naughty"
From the pathetic babbling on the "Workshop" page : @Jessintime: my understanding is different than yours. While ArbCom was aware of the COI article on WPO, the only person who brought it up to us was an Arb. For me ArbCom acting on its own initiative should be reserved for exceptional circumstances...

Re: New WPO blogpost - "Nihonjoe Has Been Naughty"
A decision should be forthcoming "real soon now". There has been VERY little public discussion of this case other than the evidence, and a few stupid comments like this (things which I fully expect Piotrus to say). Some insiders continue to be "perfectly okay" with people paid-editing and making mon...

Re: MB
Count on it. Also count on MB's owner being on IRC and Discord right now, sucking up as hard as possible. It's always funny to see bureaucrats and arbitrators talking like "well, maybe it isn't the best idea to admin a patroller who likes to scream threats at people, ya know". They NEVER talked like...

Re: The (new, straight-from-scratch) Trump thread
Been passing this old video around https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnK164efOB0 Seriously, he probably did destroy his nose by snorting coke in the 70s and 80s, and he probably does have an incontinence problem. His creepy relationship with Ivanka, his sexual "conquests", whatever. It's all been brou...

Re: The funniest SPIs are the ones where the filer themselves has been blocked
E.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Marvellous_Spider-Man/Archive Agreed--and that does not surprise me at all. "Дубоко пржена окра" means "deep fried okra". "Космонавт спіф" means "cosmonaut spring". Whoever that is knows WP internal procedures far too well. Rott...

Re: subtle vandalism may persist
the vandalism is only five days old but there you go. the IP was blocked as a sock of Vujkovica_brdo but the vandalism is still there interesting....now I wonder if someone is leaving it sitting, not because they're Serbian, but because they hate NATO that much. Allegedly NATO's first actual milita...

Re: Crap or questionable articles
Wikipoo still loves pro wrestling--something I noticed long ago. Your crass example for today, a long article with few references. Fan crap. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SeXXXy_Eddy Mostly the work of an administrator with a hard-on for lighthouses and templates https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:M...

Re: Crap or questionable articles
Moxaverine is an OLD drug. It's one of the things mentioned in the book Blitzed: Drugs in Nazi Germany (a notorious book, partly because certain Third Reich fanboys hated it and claimed it was "full of exaggerations") that Theodor Morell was giving to Hitler to keep him "functional". So it dates fro...
