Admin recall request
Hello Floquenbeam,
I noticed that my userpage has "disappeared", by virtue of an
. Even though I won't edit this encyclopedia any more, I'd like to make a contribution by kindly asking you to step aside as an admin, so that other users won't be angered by the kind of behaviour that you displayed in regard to myself. I will not be convinced by any argument that your stepping aside is optional, so I won't respond here. As to further reasons, I noticed that you are keen to dismiss the opinion of an "unknown" user so long as you know that the other may have a job at MIT. It now has turned out that my correction was correct and remains in the article, cf. Master theorem (analysis of algorithms). I have still not recieved any apologies, nor any invitations to rejoin the project. Hence, I will continue to focus on different matters. --Mathmensch (talk) 20:42, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- Cf. also , for which I was blamed by you, cf. here. --Mathmensch (talk) 20:55, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Adding a space to a page leads to a desysop request. Wow. Mathmensch, you're welcome to edit here but you'll find that demands for apologies and ludicrous desysop requests will get short shrift. --NeilN talk to me 21:09, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- Try adding two spaces. Community ban. —SerialNumber54129...speculates 21:36, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- I second the call for Floquenbeam to step aside as an admin. It's past time someone held him accountable. Just six short years ago, he made this edit to my userpage, for which he's never apologized. In other words, there's a pattern here. I can't prove that his 2012 edit to my userpage led to the subsequent gradual and ongoing six-year decline in the quality and cluefulness of the Wikipedia "community", but I can't disprove it, either, so let's assume it's true. (That's the scientific method, as explained to me by Wikipedia editors on various talkpages).
Like Mathmensch, I categorically refuse to be convinced by any arguments that counter my pre-formed opinions—and I'm also angered that Floquenbeam won't listen to my arguments and opinions. I'm tired of Floquenbeam getting away with stuff just because he's sane, intelligent, and honest. Those qualities, it is increasingly clear, have no place on Wikipedia.
