And as the ongoing game of Three Monkeys that surrounds Jess Wade shows
I count eleven in this batch alone.

I was wondering why you were doing all these things but now I see it. You are part of a team of researchers studying Wikipedia.

Successfully so, it seems......
That was a statement of opinion in my capacity as an individual administrator; it is not a "ruling" and is not binding on anybody else. I'm not inclined to engage in speculation about the extent of a restriction that applies only to one editor and their specific circumstances. Sandstein 11:16, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
Very useful to know that when Sandstein says The Rambling Man's ArbCom sanction was not applicable becuase he had targetted his bile at ArbCom, he was only giving an opinion and it wasn't meant to bind anyone else's hands and it wasn't meant to set a precedent.

Serious critics could do a lot with that, given it seems to be a bizarre combination of utter bollocks and entirely contradictory to the way Sandstein usually sees such things. A serious critic could explain to people that this is pretty good proof that the normally logical and consistent Sandstein, was caught momentarily abusing his power, in a quite clever and very subtle way, simply to stick it to ArbCom. Presumably because he was sick and tired of being made to eat shit for being a consistent and logical enforcer of ArbCom sanctions, specifically the one being talked about here.

Beeblebrox can thank Matt Baker later, since he would presumably be quite pleased to know that even the normally impenetrable Sandstein, is vulnerable to harassment. Once he has finished giving Midsize Jake his briefing notes for the day.

In simple terms, dumbing it down to Wikipediocracy's level, yes Beeblebrox, people do know what you're all about, they did start watching you when it became clear the community wanted you to be their Representative from the Darkness, so you really should be shitting yourself right now, because who knows what is being emailed to T&S, and what findings of fact about the en.wiki community might result.

Because you know you don't like those. Especially the ones that are RIGHT ON THE MONEY.
