Meanwhile, AP2 is exploding AE again. Kingsindian even made a statement.

Somehow, MrX, along with much of the gang, "figures into all of this". I saw him waxing a bit paranoiac about automated sushi-rollers in "the broader issue" discussion Trypto started on the AE talk-page. They must be reading Barbara's prose. (§)

p.s. to MrX: in order to have been banned there would have needed to be community discussion. Nope, I'm still blocked for having dared speak up against the Computer Incident Response Team's Sagecandor. Well done. ^^

Now why did this end up getting filed under Drmies?

I think you filed it under Drmies because he is showing exactly who he is in the report. He couldn't just tell people what he thought the source is, he had to go on a one man mission insulting everyone else who he sees as inferiors. And in his desperation to be proven right, as if somehow a second rate academic experience in a humanities department has any relevance to what Harvard economists and public health professors do or don't do, he has massively overplayed his hand. Which leads to the invidious sight of saying something as fucked up as this to a fellow admin....
So, if you are giving me the option of being either incompetent or "glaringly deceptive", I'll choose to just ignore that, and I'll rather listen to and learn from editors with tons of article space edits, content editors who have written articles, who have experience with using and judging sources. Drmies (talk) 17:50, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
Meanwhile, Kingsindian is doing his usual. He's happy to say things like this.....
NeilN's comments are extremely strange and very bad. There is nothing wrong with a Wikipedia editor describing a piece of analysis as "garbage". That is clearly a personal opinion, and people are allowed to have opinions.
.......
Personal opinions about all sorts of things are flying on the talk page. For instance, to take a very simple example: Drmies writes I know Trumpers don't like science, just below an "Oppose" vote. This is, to put it mildly, rather inflammatory, not to mention a snide personal attack. I know American politics is rather ugly nowadays, but come on.
These are remarkably on point observations. Yet will be do anything about it? Because he surely knows NeilN and Drmies don't give a flying fuck about his opinion of their conduct as Administrators.

This is so Drmies.....
I'm cheered by the fact that any warning for me will come from one individual administrator, as matters currently stand.
He's laughing his ass off at the supposed victory that this......
I think Drmies should likewise be warned against battleground editing - in particular belittling other editors. GoldenRing (talk) 09:06, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
....would be deemed to be highly inappropriate by just one other Administrator, Tony Bullshit.

This is what Drmies takes heart in - he feels no sense of shame at all that in a poll of two Admins, he can only manage 50% explicit confidence.

He should reflect on the fact that while other Administrators didn't explicitly support GoldenRing, they didn't go as far as Tony Bullshit in speaking out against him either. The one they call NeilN, pointedly left it up to GR to decide if he wanted to log that warning, not willing to say what he thought of it at all, except to observe other admins simply didn't think Drmies' behaviour was as bad as his opponents. The one they call Awilley would only go so far as to say Drmies' behaviour merely didn't rise to a warning, but said it was however, "not ideal".

Lots of other admins didn't say a word about it at all, so Drmies will just have to hope that means they think like Tony Bullshit, and that is how they would react if it was strictly necessary. His ego is such that he would probably make that assumption.

Drmies thinks there was nothing wrong with his behaviour, that it can somehow be dismissed as him simply not suffering tools gladly. Drmies perhaps need to reflect on what percentage of now desysopped or even banned Admins, had that sort of mindset. It's the sign of an asshole.

Drmies needs to have a long hard think about his history - do the number of times people have expressed the same general issues with him, really give him reason to be so cocky? They can't all be browbeaten, intimidated or even blocked to shut them up.

This is why it makes me laugh to see him so confident. Behaving like an asshole, treating his victims as if they are fools, even explicitly saying it - you put a person in that situation and then use your undeserved social standing to ensure they can do nothing to fight back on Wikipedia, well, there's gonna be consequences......

WP:AE
You may wish to check in at WP:AE, as User:GoldenRing is doubling down on his disparaging comments about you, to the point of suggesting you be warned for your remarks. --Calton | Talk 10:50, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, but I'm going to pass. This isn't a big enough matter and I'm not really interested in this pissing contest with them. Thanks Calton--I hope you're doing well. Drmies (talk) 15:45, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

You: Peer Review. Them: Pee Review. SPECIFICO talk 16:39, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
Golden shower.....geddit? These fucking people. :roll:

Sucks to be GoldenRing, no respect from a supposed equal. Even worse for Drmies' little subordinate Kingsindian - his opinion that Drmies was guilty of personal attacks didn't even get a snide comment, it was just completely ignored.

This is now it works people. There is a heirarchy to all this Wikipedia pervert play, and you better know your place if you don't wanna get kicked out of this basement dweller's club. Drmies is at the top, below only the Dominatrix of them all, Queen Bishonen. He pisses on any admin who thinks he isn't up to the job, and shits on mere editors who happen to agree.

That's hilarious.

At least now he may quit pretending to be genderless, or race blind, or any of the other cravenly adopted masks he has occasionally deployed so as to climb the ladder or pull the rungs away from others, at the Wikipedia for old white Western males of unremarked academic achievement.

Classic Drmies.
I do NOT like that the “In Wrestling” section listing “Fishing Holds”, “Signature Holds” & “Theme Music” has been removed! I am trying to look up some wrestler theme songs & that has always been my go-to for looking it up but that is impossible to do when they have been removed! Where else can that be found? NOWHERE AT ALL! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CCE0:8550:81DD:D18E:1485:114A (talk) 16:32, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Sorry, but that's not what Wikipedia is for, to be your go-to source for information deemed trivial (and usually poorly verified) by Wikipedia editors. Drmies (talk) 16:33, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
There isn't a chance in hell that theme music will ever be deemed too trivial to include in the prose of a wrestler's biographies (these panicked users having missed the part where any of this currently bulleted list type information deemed non-trivial is not being removed, but moved).

And it is unlikely it should ever be unsourced, this poor person's comment aside. Poorly sourced, yes, but that is Wikipedia's choice, having long held the most ridiculous standards in areas like wrestling, where even the most respected and valued sources are trashed as worthless by rank amateurs who have never been paid a cent in their life for the specialised job of compiling a reference work.

It is of course rather stupid to hold this sort of information to impeccable sourcing standards at all. It isn't a drug formula or a claim of illegality, two types of information I'm quite sure Drmies isn't actively working on to reduce the horrific levels of poor or indeed non-existent sourcing.

Christ, if we hold the view that wrestling is mere performance, the you just cite the air date and channel, and take the view it is easily verified WP:PLOT material, requiring no secondary source at all. At least not until a dick like Drmies turns up and tags it. Not because he doubts it, but just to make a WP:POINT.

As he so often does, in this one glib comment, he personified Drmies the Wikipediot. What an asshole.

What a prick.
Lauren Southern
Good morning/afternoon/evening(don’t know your time zone,) Can you please provide another citation/link to Lauren Southern’s page when you talk about her views on women’s leadership? The link leads to The Australian, but no actual article. Also, please do not remove my other edit without providing a valid reason. Thank you, J072318 J072318 (talk) 17:23, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

J072318, there is no requirement that such a link be provided. WP:AGF, for instance, asks us to accept that cited articles are legitimate, even if not internet-accessible. I see now that you've been in hot water before and I suggest you stay out of it. Drmies (talk) 17:31, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
He "sees now"? He blocked this user himself not two days earlier......
Re: Zara Larsson
I will be sure to add a reliable citation. J072318 (talk) 01:01, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

There is no "reliable citation" for that kind of content. Add it again and I will block you per WP:NOTHERE--I have severe doubts already about what you're doing here. Drmies (talk) 01:03, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

@Drmies: They added it again [1] HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 01:08, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

July 2018

Stop icon with clock
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for persistent vandalism.

I warned you, didn't I? You now have 31 hours to read up on our policies, especially WP:BLP. HickoryOughtShirt, I know I said I'd block indefinitely, but who knows. Drmies (talk) 03:09, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

I'm jealous, Drmies. HickoryOughtShirt?4 got an impersonator in less than 8 months. It took me four years. John from Idegon (talk) 03:23, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

Oh, I got a long list. Drmies (talk) 03:29, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
What kind of arrogant ass doesn't remember treating people like that?

Showing all the class he is known for, this editor's first edit to Wikipedia was two days before this block. They did vandalize, but so fucking what? WP:AGF states you accept that this is as much your stupid fault as it is theirs, for allowing anyone to edit. Crucially, there's no real basis for Drmies' "severe doubts" other than his own bad attitude, but there are signs the user has good intentions, which places the burden of AGF directly on Drmies.

If you asked Drmies to elaborate on his suspicions, all you'd get is bullshit. And his idea of AGF here, is not immediately indef blocking for a first offence. It contrasts well with what he defends from established users, who know all the rules and have had countless second chances.

Technically, it wasn't even vandalism, just a really poor edit (WP:NOTVAND). Still, that distinction has never bothered Drmies when treating people like shit (even though he regularly uses that same distinction to berate others when it suits).

He seems to take a very sick pleasure in leveraging his experience of Wikipedia over newbies, and his ability to block them as and when he pleases, policy be damned. He's the polar opposite of what you want in an Admin in that situation. Just another example of why every last Wikipedian needs to be exterminated for being OK with it.

Perhaps the worst aspect of this whole thing, is his policy cluelessness. He is generally correct over the acceptability of offline citations, but in this instance, the content is so potentially inflammatory, only a fool would think WP:BLP doesn't demand immediate removal if the dead link can't be recovered and an alternative isn't immediately available.

Not only does Drmies not tell the user that little aspect of a major policy (inconceivable that he does not know), he fucking leaves the content unsourced. Not content with that, he messes the user around when they persist, reverting them, claiming their edits are "unexplained". That is a lie. As shown above.

Indeed, the user has made multiple attempts, in different ways, to get his issue across, the offline citation. Drmies is either incompetent, or deliberately choosing not to see it, so he can block the user for edit warring and showing disrespect to his authoritah. It is all a sick game to him. I wonder if his wife knows she lives with a psycho.

Now we get to the really fucked up part (Drmies is nothing if not layered in his everyday scummyness). Why would he not really care if potentially inflammatory content remains in a Wikipedia biography, when the link claiming to support it has gone dead? Why doesn't he care to remove it, or replace the source? And why is he fucking with a noobie who is trying to remove it or have it sourced properly?

The answer is, of course, because in Drmies' eyes, and a large proportion of the Wikipedia editor base to be truthful, someone like Laura Southern isn't entitled to the protections of Wikipedia policy, because she's eeeeviiiilllll.

Incidents like this, examples of repeated and blatant misconduct, are standard fare for him. I literally don't even have to look for them, invariably they are simply one of the last things he was doing when I check on what the scumbag has been up to since I last looked.

Seriously, if all Drmies has to worry about is impersonators, he is a very lucky man.

Of course Drmies is not a lucky man because he is ruing in this way his complete future, and that makes me sad, real sad. Because in these days if you want a job the first thing they do is je compete (digitale) doopzeel lichten, start looking for your entire (digital) history.
What Drmies has done is extreme stupide, but he is absolute not the only Dutch wikipedian who has done extreem stupide things on Wikipedia. And I am sorry for him. Real story and if Wikipedia didn't had existed in this form this had not happend. Wikipedia is evil, Wikipedia is bad, it hurts everybody at the end. Wikipedia is a present of the devil, its Faust with all his temptations.

He doesn't need a job, he conned those poor fools at Mediocre Tech into thinking his Wikipedia bullshit counts as research, so he got tenure.

I doubt they're smart enough to even be able to tell what a corrupt fuck he is in his Wikipedia role. Still, it couldn't hurt to see if they can figure it out.
