Re: Transexuals in Wikipedia's Administrative Culture
Well, I guess we are naming names then......I didn't even know about most of those, and funnily enough, it is remarkable how many of them are total psychos. I think it fits the broader theme the majority of female editors on Wikipedia are far more aggressive and hostile than gender norms would sugg...

Re: Blog post on where WO and the rest of it is....
It was sort of a strange hybrid of WO criticism and CB radio (which is obviously among your interests) but I certainly liked the article. That picture of Zoloft and his later-revealed attitude of, basically, "how can we help Wikipedia" live in infamy. You certainly crank out the WP critici...

Re: Transexuals in Wikipedia's Administrative Culture
Thanks for the perspective, Crowsnest (and by the way thanks for livening up the place the last few weeks, we sort of needed it).

Transexuals in Wikipedia's Administrative Culture
I encourage that no names be named, but when you examine Wikipedia's administrative culture, you see what appear to me to be a large amount of "transgender females" (that is to say males that attempt to be female). You see this at Arbcom. If there's a "transgender male" I haven't...

Re: Abd banned from the WMF projects
doxing, stalking and harassment
I don't know that Abd did those things, but I've read him uninformedly make Wikipedia-administrator-like sweeping pronouncements from on high. Before that I thought he was okay, but wasn't reading Rational Wiki and so on.

Re: The Daily Mail ban
Drmies restoring the "stable version". https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Daily_Mail&diff=next&oldid=828638831 It's unbelievable the three defamatory and unsourced paragraphs Drmies (Michel Aaij of the University of Montgomery, Alabama) reinserted there. Such as the senten...

Re: Volunteer Marek
Tarantino is a person that delights in cross-identifying Wikipedia editors, and exhibits Wikipedia administrative characteristics, but who is Tarantino?

Re: Zoloft steps down from moderating
How anyone who says (I think this is close to verbatim) "by working together we can help Wikipedia improve, and Wikipedia can help us improve" can lead a supposed criticism website is beyond me.
But, as I've said, Wikipediocracy.com is a fan website, not a criticism website.

Multiple indicators, that I'm not going to get into, point to Joe Szwaja, who was or is a schoolteacher.
