Tamzin has temporarily resigned: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?ol ... t_(Tamzin)

And will be back, and will automatically be given all the powers, and will continue on her merry way trashing things. Eventually she will start fighting with insiders and arbitration will ensue. They will toss her but no one will lift a finger to undo the wreckage or apologize to the people she blocked (currently up to almost 500 accounts).

And following arbitration and loss of grace, as part of a redemptive arc she could defect to our side and set the stage for even more interesting things to come.

Doubt it. Even if she is banned, she'll still be a Wikipediot at heart. Many raving lunatics like her have been banned from WP and so far none have "defected".

What is Tamzin doing right now? Well none other than defending lifelong war criminal Henry Kissinger. Remember, this is the same person who thinks that Trump voters shouldn't be allowed to edit Wikipedia because of the racist things that Trump has said.

Note that it wasn't even about anything or any edits made to the article.

In case you were wondering, Wikipediocracy calls him "beloved": https://wikipediocracy.com/forum/viewto ... =8&t=13237

The squabble started over this pile of feces. Wikipedians being their dumbest.

I'm assuming that was sarcasm....it was, right?.....

Jesus. Why in the hell do they put up with Garrett "SarekofVulcan" Fitzgerald? He's mentioned in the book wiki--as a complete raging asshole. He is NOT a "popular administrator". Check the votes on any of his FOUR RFAs.

Knowing WPO, he's probably serious.

Seems in the spirit of WP:DENY even if nothing was outright vandalism. Sennalen (talk) 21:32, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

What? Is he trying to imply that anyone who didn't like Henry Kissinger is an LTA or sockpuppet?

I do hope we're not setting a precedent here that we're going to police user talk pages based on some people's interpretation of what "brings the project into disrepute." We have always given considerable latitude to the sorts of conversations people are allowed to have on their user talk pages, and I've certainly never seen this level of fun police kiboshing barnstars and other light-hearted messages. I hope this doesn't become a trend. – bradv 02:07, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Oh noes! WPO members won't be able to troll Wikipedia anymore. This is a DISASTER!!!

Tamzin is now at WPO preaching that she's actually all about diversity and tolerance of political opinions now . Funny how that happens suddenly when a war criminal dies. Classic liberal logic: "Trump must NOT be tolerated because disrupted the sacred legal PROCESS". While mass-murdering war criminal psychopaths (not implying Trump wasn't one too, but I think we can all agree that Kissinger and Bush were far, far worse) are tolerated (and even defended) because they did it "within the process" and "can always be voted out". Tell me, did the Iraqis, Vietnamese, and Cambodians have the right to "vote them out"?

It's in the news now:
