Re: Number of Wikipedia editors has declined by 80k over the past two years!
I can tell you i've been using sock for about the last 3 years. I'm certain some people know and it's only a matter of time until they block it and chaos ensues when they vandalize thousands of articles by deleting or reverting all my edits.

Re: Is Wikipedia broken?
I think using the term broken for something like Wikipedia might be the wrong adjective. It's too vague and one persons trash is often anothers treasure. For most of us critics the answer is probably yes, certainly I believe so but if you ask someone like Beeeblebrox he'll disagree at the notion any...

Wikipediocracy comments about my socking

Re: Who are the best Wikipedia editors and admins who got blocked or banned?
I can think of a lot: - since magioladitis' desysop and automation ban development of Autowikibrowser has basically ceased. - eric Corbett could be a jerk but he was a great writer and created a lot of good/ featured content. - they lost hundreds of thousands of edits with my bullshit ban alone incl...
