Nobody on Wikipediocracy has even voted for a full slate. And that's the Faithfull!

This is gonna be hilarious.

Praise be to Fram, the Wikipedia destroying machine. Hilarious to think even as of last week, he's wandering around thinking he's doing good work, saving Wikipedia, one beating at a time.

:lol:

Well, who had "software glitch prevents people voting" in the sweepstake?

(we really should retire that one, it's a guaranteed winner)

:lol:

Oh, and.....

Pro-tip. If your user interface reads like it is literally the output from a BASIC programme, you probably need better programmers.

fair warning, don't read everything you believe

Hilarious.
@JSutherland (WMF): please see phab:T296349 - anyway some resources can be marshaled to look at this? — xaosflux Talk 22:22, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

@Xaosflux: I can try but at the moment there are no teams assigned to work on SecurePoll bugs. We'll likely have to deal with it for this cycle. Joe Sutherland (WMF) (talk) 22:31, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
No doubt Vigilant will have something to say about competence, and if he were still alive, Guy Macon might have said something about budgets.

All I'll say is, if it looks like payback, and it smells like payback, it might yet be another consequence of Framgate.

:lol:

If it wants nice things, it puts the pretty dress on!

As I keep saying: the "public votes" mean little or nothing. Arbitrators are chosen by insiders via IRC, PM or whatever invisible communication links they have with each other. They pull their rottenest shit in non-public ways. Which is why it all appears so stupid and arbitrary to outsiders.

Dark Clouds of Joy was just a sideshow, a mere distraction to help the real WO sock candidate evade scrutiny.

I hope all the women are watching.

Powerful white male Beeblebrox has his own pet CheckUser, another white male no doubt, who has been running around all week trying to make sure Beeblebrox can't be held accountable for bullying women who are trying to preserve the memory and honour the legacy of a woman who literally died in service of Wikipedia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?ti ... 1056978378

Maybe they don't understand why people hate them?

The scary part.....maybe they do, they just know they have the power to ignore it.

I surely won't need to tell people that in the face of this blue wall, there really is no alternative but withdraw your labour and tear up your ballot. Not even the single woman standing is minded to see what Beeblebrox does as totally disqualifying (or if she does, she is doing what Wikipedia women are supposed to do, keeping her mouth shut). And even if she did want to do something about it, what can one person on a Committee of fifteen even do?

If they want the sandbox, let them have it.

Just make sure you piss in it when you leave through. ;)

Lol, but also hmmmmm
Also, as I'm sure you know, but if not, SlimVirgin did post publicly about the pain and stress Wikipedia caused her in her final months. There was a dispute with David Gerard over the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes article, and she was clearly upset by how it was handled. ArbCom isn't directly to blame for that, but if you look, there's not a lot of difference in the arrogant and dismissive way Gerard spoke to her, and the way Beeblebrox spoke to you. This is the effect of having such people in power. [[User:KongPingWut|KongPingWut]] ([[User talk:KongPingWut|talk]]) 17:51, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
And instantly permabanned by Zzuuzz. As expected.
