Wikipedia Sucks!

Please don't go away, Mr. Bird! Further lulz are needed!

A Wikipedia administrator calling himself Yamla just deleted Laura Hale's user talk page in order to shield her from scrutiny in the Fram case. Arbitrator Worm That Turned restored it but made it hard to find.

Lol, I didn't even bother to study him for the book notes. Another sad IT loser.

Yamla has gone on vacation:

No, that's not a photoshop; it's from his own facebook page.

Well, this is obviously what passes for a functionary these days! I wonder if the real reason they resigned is cause this stunning photo got leaked!

I saw that photo a while ago - I can't remember where though.

Nothing in life like a beautiful girl.

Isn't it amazing how many M-F transgender people there are in the highest admin ranks? I fail to understand why.

The goal is to make David Gerard's wedding look normal.
