"Lubek's Threelogy"

Was searching for Wikipedia-critical books and this came up. Seems pretty bizarre. Unfortunately, nothing about Wikipedia is included in the Google Books preview.

Some stupid wing-nut has obviously hacked an obscure book description to get some jolly's.

Nobody really cares. You can't fight wingnuttery on Wikipedia With wingnuttery.

It isn't hacked. It really is the same author. I highly doubt someone could hack 20+ websites. In addition to that, he also promoted the book on his youtube channel: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A ... reelogy%22

Wing-nut = having a screw loose.

Reveling in irrelevant nonsense is wing-nutty for sure. How about something serious such as stats on declining editors or pages views.

Ha ha this is hilarious....for the newer board members, Lubek (also called "lupcojansteriev", "NIDA", and too many other names to keep track of) has been a constant annoyance on every critical WP forum since, I think, at least 2008. He raised absolute hell on Wikipedia Review and Wikipediocracy and probably dozens of unrelated forums, over and over, until banned--and would pop up a few months later with a new sockpuppet and start over.

Many times he was told to stop spluttering in all-caps, organize his objections, and put them in print. He finally did it. Unfortunately I suspect this book is just as incoherent as all his past spluttering about WP admins (especially Antandrus). Some things never ever change.

We did not bother to write him up for the book wiki. He's just not important enough.

A reminder:
https://wikipedia-sucks-badly.blogspot. ... mails.html

There are old threads in the "Chatter" and "Garbage" areas here, about/full of his rants.

He tried to start a Medium blog but they apparently tossed him(?)
