Many thanks! I am inactive at 99% of the BLPs are vaguely US-related. I found a major copyvio case years ago - and that person is still editing, making BLP totally meaningless. WP has become the worst violator of its one "principles" imaginable. I still look in from time to time. Mainly to shake my head at how bad it has become. |

Revision as of 03:30, 22 April 2023
![]() | This editor won the Quarter Million Award for bringing Christian Science to Good Article status. |
Well-meaning editors: Do not edit comments from others on this page. Thank you.
I have now reached the 244 "Thanks" level from "notifications" - getting an average of over 115 per year it appears. Thank you to all who have thought highly of my edits. Collect (talk) 15:52, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
From 2013 (and various unnamed editors): I have started to work on a composite of my history dealing with Collect at my talk page. It starts in late 2008 so it might take a while. I'll accept fellow editors deciding when they have more of the facts.
- Had I known Collect was behind your request I may have declined. He has been sniffing my excrement for 4 years or more. I don't bother myself with him unless he shows up where I am working. Then I have to consider what is more important: dealing with Collect's dribble or continuing to talk and work with other editors. I detest him so much I usually just leave and go do something else in WikiLand
- Sorry, But I'd rather have all of my fingernails pulled out than to get involved with those editors. Especially Collect, perhaps the most dangerous and dirtiest Wikipedia editor I've come across--only my opinion of course, which I feel I am free to offer on my own talk page? It is true that there are plenty of articles here that are more about numbers than about the truth, IOW, who ever has the most editors on their side can write the article.
- I got here by looking at Collect contrbutions. (from a sock master)
- This essay serves no purpose in mainspace other than to aggrandize its creator. I recall some quip about dressing a pig...I'll let those who want, finish the line.
Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense
Articles which make "allegations" make bad encyclopedia articles, especially when any sort of POV can be attached thereto. I suggest that articles subject to WP:BLP in any manner which make allegations be strongly constrained. This specifically includes use of opinions or claims that a person or persons bears "guilt by association" with any other person or group.
Quote of the day from an editor who seems to regard his own screeds as the epitome of "wit":
- Twain is the perennial favorite of intellectual pygmies who believe a trite quote has the power to increase their stature.
I rather think his "wit" speaks for itself pretty clearly.
Some of my essays:
WP:Repetition in Argumentation
Some of the articles I have created:
- Samuel Arnold Greeley
- Harper Encyclopedia of Military Biography
- Harlan Howard Thompson
- Charles S. Strong (recommended)
- John W. Curry
- Gordon Grant (artist)
- Éditions Gründ
- Tech Engineering News
- Boston Society of Civil Engineers
- Frank P. Brown Medal
- Thaddeus Seymour
- Christopher Burnham
etc.
From WP:Plagiarism
Copying from an unacknowledged source
- Inserting a text—copied word-for-word, or closely paraphrased with very few changes—from a source that is not acknowledged anywhere in the article, either in the body of the article, or in footnotes, the references section, or the external links section.
- The above example is the most egregious form of plagiarism and the least likely to be accidental.
repeating for those who did not seem to read it the first time:
Articles which make "allegations" make bad encyclopedia articles, especially when any sort of POV can be attached thereto. I suggest that articles subject to WP:BLP in any manner which make allegations be strongly constrained. This specifically includes use of opinions or claims that a person or persons bears "guilt by association" with any other person or group.
Poring over 40K+ edits ....
On over 98% of articles where I have asserted BLP problems - there was no contest about it.
- Sarah Palin is not a practitioner of Witchcraft,
- Joe the Plumber is not a felon,
- Prescott Bush was not a manager of Nazi slave labour camps whose living heirs live off of Nazi gold,
- Johan Hari is not a worst journalist ever to live,
- XXX is not "gay",
- YYY (living person) is not "homophobia",
- ZZZ (many) are not "Jews", etc.
as well as many hundreds of other articles, such as ones asserting groups of living persons support use of biological weapons to commit genocide, etc. Of those where an issue was raised and discussed, in about 80% of the cases it was determined that there was a BLP violation and my position was correct. My "poor BLP average" is 99+% in my favour. As for being biased on "US politics" issues, no evidence has been provided for that claim for one very good reason - I am not biased on US politics issues, and have edited articles on everyone from Communists to Fascists worldwide.
Clearly some editors have spent a great deal of time following my every edit, but did anyone note that it is the same editors each time?
I have now spent several full days on the preliminary stuff -- but so far not a single arbitrator has acknowledged the evidence I sent in months ago. Where no one reads anything, it is likely they will read anything in the future - or is it a matter of "our minds are made up ahead of time - don't bother us with facts"? ANEW complaints? In one case: My conclusion is thus that this is not a blockable offense, and Collect apparently acted in good faith, In another "both editors blocked" despite the fact the 3+RR was not on my part at all, and the BLP issue was later proven at AfD to be correctly raised, [1] notes that repeatedly removing fucking from a BLP where the problem had already been shown to be a BLP issue was not improper on my part, and so on.

On this day
As we hear Taps or The Last Post on this day, we should remember they descended from the same source - a call to innkeepers to "close the taps" so soldiers could return to their posts (taptoe in Dutch). What one does not hear though is Winston Churchill's comment about retirement and death:
- I leave when the pub closes
When taptoe has sounded the last time, and the "last post" has been visited.
- any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee John Donne
Quotation of the day. 9 February 2016
Star Wars marketing run amok
ecigs at Darth Vaper
major stores at Darth Maul
Dating service at Luke Shywalker
Tanning salon at Obi Wan Kenobi
So far no suggestions for the female characters ...
