Jason Scott: Criticizing Wikipedia, but has a dark side too.
Posted: Mon Nov 04, 2019 1:18 am
Despite WMF and Internet Archive seem to be close friends, apparently Jason Scott (ArchiveTeam founder and Internet Archive employee) is a criticizer of Wikipedia.
However, Jason Scott is not clean either.
Jason Scott has verbally abused several members of his 2009-founded organisation ArchiveTeam (Kyan, ATrescue), despite they, especially ATrescue, was very, very productive on ArchiveTeam Wiki. More about that below.
In fact, >75% of the YouTube article on ArchiveTeam Wiki is written by him alone.
ATrescue made 460 edits within 3 weeks, while Jason Scott (user:Jscott) made just ~20 edits since February 2017.
ATrescue created articles about MegaSWF, UserScripts and many more.
Jason Scott wrote into the IRC “I don't care how productive he is”, which is like Bbb23. Unthankful and ignorant.
ATrescue was initially blocked for one week only (for creating template:TwHandle), then Jason Scott decided to block him indefinitely with talk page and email disabled without explanation, despite ATrescue talked very civil to him.
Jason Scott has also falsely accused ATrescue of doing “this” (what exactly?) for months, despite he was just registered on the Wiki for 21 days, and banned ATrescue from IRC without him being to say anything.
Jason Scott has accused ATrescue of even more things, read these two statements that Jason Scott entirely neglected:

* https://gist.github.com/ATRescue/bd40310ddf6c34ba68356fbd0f37352f
In February 2016, Jason Scott verbally abused a user called Kyan, for a simple question with slight criticism.
Wikipedia critic Jason Scott has his own dark side too, apparently.
