JYTdog was not a good wikilawyer or person imhoBoink Boink wrote: ↑Sun Jun 04, 2023 1:44 amJytdog certainly experienced an epic fall from grace. Technically he wasn't banned, but he walked away because in his view (and in all likelihood) he had left ArbCom no choice but to ban him.
I don't think he got enough credit at the time for showing a form of integrity. He is the closest thing Wikipedia has ever had to a martyr I suspect. And yet for his sacrifice, he was essentially forgotten, even though at the time, his talk page quickly came to resemble a protest or a wake.
Who are the best Wikipedia editors and admins who got blocked or banned?

I was reminded today that Mathsci was STILL generating hellstorms as of last year. He is unquestionably a prominent mathematician and well qualified to write WP content about advanced math, but the guy just cannot stop shitting on people.

He even doxed himself, and complained about his health problems, here:

Read the "Side tangent" part for real lulz.
Sure enough, Ritchie333 banned his ass from Wikipedia in July. (Of course he's running socks, stupid question!)

So this user relies on a RationalWiki hit piece, full of deception, created by a Smith brother and mostly maintained by them?Ognistysztorm wrote: ↑Fri Jun 02, 2023 7:36 pmAbd is someone that should be ditched from the cause if it's going to be made mainstream:
