An intense war has waged on this page after Griveaux polemic. Now that a few weeks have passed, there are reasons to believe that reequilibrating it was necessary. I based myself on pre-polemic version and integrated post-polemic version, without reusing the most libelous elements, whilst deleting most self-promoting ones. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 11:30, 29 March 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:::I do not agree on the objectivity of the current page, nor on the justification regarding consensual agreement over a page that has been widely and almost exclusively edited by an SPA, and widely differs, negatively, from the main one (French), and presents an orientated narrative that is clearly negative. Correcting it by neutralizing is in no ways a temptative to render the page hagiographic. |

:::Whatever happened in the history of this page does not justify the obfuscation of verified, sourced elements, the use of speculative wording, including suggestions of criminal behaviour that have never been investigated or been qualified as such in the public space, and so forth. Those have been severed by my corrections, without any temptative to supress factual elements that were adopted. |

|
::: Many examples can be taken, but the apperantly most insignificant are revealing, for example the use of "populist" in order to qualify "La France Insoumise", the systematically negative presentation of his political engagement, as with the quote of a "colister" of Branco's 2017 candidacy: legislative candidates in France have no "colisters". Those elements are sparsed in a widespread manner. It is difficult to presume good faith when seeing them accumulated, although I do presume that most editors, which do not master French and have not seen French version or have direct access to the French sources, do not perceive it. |

|
::: The individual concerned by this article has been at the heart of a huge polemic, and important attacks both from some media (heavily quoted) and individuals, which have tried to hinder his reputation, have come along. This has clearly affected this page, whatever, once again, the considerations that could be made regarding the previous versions. |

|
:::Having proceeded to the deletion of all informations coming from previous sources - albeit not contradicted since - does not seem to me to be compatible with wikipedia standards. |
|
|
::: I'll go more into details. The current version is lacunary on essential points. My modifications tend to preserve all the critical aspects that have been added recently, even the most anecdotical ones, whilst adding sourced factual elements (mainly regarding the career) that are missing and are yet of critical importance for context. Those elements are beeing added in the most objective and sober way. |
|
|
:::I'm also suggesting a neutralization of the wording when it is clearly excessive, inaccurate or incomplete. For example, Branco's carrer elements that were previously mentionned, were sourced and have visibly a critical importance, had disappeared for no reasons (Foreign affairs ministry, international criminal court). His ICC submission, yet considered as a main element by many outlets, was also deleted without reasons. It is impossible to elaborate a biography that cuts away objective elements of such importance, and there is no reason to consider than adding them back is hagiographical. |
|
|
::: I am not, at this point, entering in any modification that could be considered as unconsensual. I do not consider that the hierarchy of information currently used is legitimate, as it puts in the spotlights anecdotical elements (all negative) whilst hindering structural elements that are either neutral, either positive. |
|
|
:::I'll be limiting my modifications to elements present in the French version, which has reached a consensual point of equilibrium after two months of heavy redrafting by many contributors which have a more direct access to the original sources than we do. |
|
|
:::I'm reestablishing MINUSCA as a suggestion, but I'm thinking of transferring it to the MINUSCA page and only keep a shorter version in order not to uneven the page. I'd be glad if any modification happens. |
|
|
::: Finally, according to Google Trends, Juan Branco was widely known before the Griveaux Case in France, especially regarding his involvement with the yellow jackets (which surprisingly also disapeared). I'm therefore taking away this line, but will not intervene back if it is severed. |
|
|
::: I have amended my modifications and will be glad to discuss each of them, but I do not consider that general revert would be justified at this stage. |
|
|
::: I consider that in the current situation, the best way to handle things would be to require a new translation work from the French Version, or to at least refer more extensively to it. In the current situation, the "Abdeslam" information, which is anecdotical, takes more space than most of the substantial elements that were previously held. |

Hi, |
|
|
|
|
|
I am not sure if this is the proper place to offer those comments but I'll give it a try. |
|
|
I was jumping to this page from the French version and couldn't help notice how widely different they are. |
|
|
|
|
|
IMHO, the English version still suffers from the hagiography bias and in particular in the section "private life". |
|
|
<br> |
|
|
On several counts : <br> |
|
|
• the text states that the alleged victim acknowledged "that every step was consensual": this is actually not the case and there are multiple sources out there (in French sorry) from legit newspapers that specifically state that, in her declaration to the police, she claimed to have been both drugged and physically threatened. Quite the opposite. |
|

|
|
<br> |
|
|
• the quoted source to support the "every step was consensual" actually doesn't establish this for a fact: it is just a mere claim from Mr. Branco's lawyer trying to exonerate his client. It's a "he said" |
|
|
<br> |
|
|
• furthermore this source's title (a quote from his lawyer again) is giving the impression that this is a political witch hunt ("abusive arrest"). This could be an intend to pass this as statement from the newspaper. |
|
|
|
|
|
Finally the latest development is that Mr. Branco has now been recently indicted on the charge of rape. As reported by numerous newspapers : <br> |

Misplaced Pages rules are clear: |
|
|
"A bold change during an edit war should be an adaptive edit to discourage further warring and not to escalate it; it should never be another revert. Engaging in similar behavior by reverting a contribution during an edit war could be seen as disruptive and may garner sanctions. Never continue an edit war as an uninvolved party." |

:This is not an accurate reflection of this article's history: The previous version was deemed a hagiography and nominated for deletion (in part) because of this. Instead of deleting it, it was rewritten (based on the French version) to be neutral. Your concerted attempt to revert to the previous hagiography is not a "bold change" but a transparent attempt at PR. Accusing me of being a sock-puppet is some Trumpian level of projection. ] (]) 10:12, 30 March 2020 (UTC) |

It appears at least one of the IPs involved in the recent edit-warring is Branco himself. The IP used is the same Juan Branco himself used in an signed edit of the talk page of the French version (). As expected, the recent efforts to once again turn this article into a hagiography seem to be orchestrated. ] (]) 15:35, 30 March 2020 (UTC) |

This is actually a multiple band billiard game from the subject: |
|
|
<br>1 - Trying to force falsehoods (academic titles, career achievements) into Misplaced Pages |
|
|
<br>2 - Have this serve as "source" and reprinted by official newspapers that do not do due diligence in verifying facts |
|
|
<br>3 - Use those reprints from legit sources as proof (for WP). |
|
|
|
|
|
== Lack of adversarial principle. == |
|
|
|
|
|
I readily admit that objectively editing Juan Branco's Misplaced Pages page is not a small task. Nevertheless, it seems to me that, from the point of view of the contradictory, this page is unbalanced and violates Misplaced Pages guidelines in term of objectivity. |
|
|
|
|
|
I submit the following points for discussion : |
|
|
|
|
|
1/- The Filippetti passage should be, at least, balanced (''"Filippetti later stated that he "demanded to be hired as her chief of staff at age 22", that he "completely lost it when he was refused the position"''). Juan Branco has responded to these accusations. At the same time, he denies having asked to be his chief of staff at the ministry and he confirms he was his chief of staff for the campaign at her own demand : https://twitter.com/anatolium/status/1230240371638259714?s=20 . He published evidence suggesting that she volontarily play with the meaning of the expression. Even if the term of "directeur de cabinet" was unsuitable for a campaign, he really became it during François Hollande campaign at her demand : |
|
|
|
|
|
- An audio file proves she asked him to be. To source it : https://yetiblog.org/archives/22214 an independant source that published the audio recording that proves she offered him a mission of "directeur de Cabinet". |
|
|
|
|
|
- Moreover, the press has always mentioned him as his "directeur de cabinet" in 2012. https://www.latribune.fr/technos-medias/20120531trib000701243/un-nouvel-enarque-au-cabinet-d-aurelie-filippetti-.html and also https://www.lesinrocks.com/2012/05/24/web/actualite/hadopi/ It is not a question of deciding between the two, but of re-establishing a balance. |
|
|
|
|
|
2/ "After he was refused a sufficiently high spot on the electoral list of La France Insoumise" : According to Lagardere owned tabloid Paris Match? I didnt know daily mail and tabloid equivalents were considered as legitimate sources. Branco denied that point, and nobody never confirm it. (Maybe a paragraph that would explain that his best-seller, Crépuscule, made revelations on these media could be a good thing. We cannot understand the articles tone on him without that context.) |
|
|
|
|
|
3/ "In 2018 he outed the homosexuality of his former class-mate Gabriel Attal on Twitter." That presentation of fact seems to voluntarily let think that it was his purpose. However, it was not a secret (they were Pacsed (sort of civil marriage)) and it was to explain the political ascension of this Attal that this relationship was described. Nepotism denonciation was the goal, not outing ( cf. https://twitter.com/anatolium/status/1052956272675495937?s=20 ) |
|
|
|
|
|
I have nothing against the fact that appears here what some accuse him, on condition however to indicate when Branco denied the facts. It is well done in this passage ("Multiple sources claim that Juan Branco was himself involved in the leak, a criminal offense under French law. This was denied by Branco. ") so why is it not elsewhere? That gives a very branco bashing oriented tone to the article. This entry must escape to a hagiographic tone just as much as a bashing tone. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ps: The infobox is very uncomplete (compared to the french page), but I'm not an expert and i don't know how to link the information to the wikidata ressources on Branco. For example, it seems to be important to know more about his preofessional experiences and a little bit more about his studies, Yale for example, that sounds an info more revelant for english readers. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 11:19, 29 September 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

== Restauration == |
|
|
|
|
|
Hello, |
|
|
|
|
|
I restaured last consensual version before it was bashed by two french accounts. Seen the very few English sources, please check on French version (which is heavily controlled by the community) before any substantial modification and avoid adding elements that have not previously reached consensus that could trigger new editorial wars. I'm considering to sue the two French accounts that systematically try to use this page to wage personal wars against its subject, which I've refrained until now to remain in the spirit of the community. But the low-intensity control of this page from the EN community - understandable seen it is not a high value subject on this version of WP - does not provide with much alternatives. For their information, the 3 months statute of limitations is renewed everytime they intervene in this page. To all the other contributors: sorry for the bother, but there are limits to the violence that have been crossed. |
|
|
yours, |
|

== Last "consensual" version? == |
|
|
This is the last consensual version before D.Lazard started intervening on the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Juan_Branco&diff=941967204&oldid=941404845 |
|
|
|
|
|
As seen in the historic, after shared and long lasting community work, the page had become consensual and triggered only marginal changes. Once D.Lazard intervened, joined soon after by SPA ], both French accounts with visible subjectivity over the matter, no consensus was ever reached again, ending up into a completly, and polemics became systematic. |
|
|
|
|
|
The current page has become completly desequilibrated, giving much more space to polemics that are presented in altered, biaised perspectives, than to objective facts, let alone positive elements, which are reduced to almost nothing, triggering a very thought and willingfully nourrished negative perception of the matter. |
|
|
Pretending that the current version is consensual is an insult to intelligence, as seen by the historic of the page, and compared to how it was held before these two contributors started modifying it. Re. false claims of SPA or manipulation from my side, I can only reaffirm that all my interventions have been signed, or claimed a posteriori when they hadn't been. I disagree with any reasoning that would rely on these elements to justify this page becoming a bashing exercice. This is not how Misplaced Pages should be handled. https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Juan_Branco&diff=941967204&oldid=941404845 |

::This version was the fruit of many users work. By giving a quick look at the evolution of the historic of the page, it is possible to check my words and perceive how indeed, the page , which was until then consensually built by many different users, never became consensual again, in a timeframe that corresponds to the begining of the intervention of the two said accounts, D. Lazard and EdgarAllanFrost. It would be, in my opinion, absurd to consider in contrast the current version as "consensual" seen the editorial wars that have sparsed it since they started intervening on the page, with no intent to reach any objectivity, systematically deleting or reducing the importance of positive elements and giving massive space to negative elements, even when based on rumors or interested sources. Preserving their version, without any confirmed perspective of a future remodeling of the whole page that would make it steady, would be acting in a ponce pilatian fashion. It would (secondarily?) signify letting two anonymous individuals using this platform to destroy, for unknown reasons, the reputation of a 30 years old person, by distorting facts, invisibilise most of what he has built during that time, and giving visibility only to what hinders him in the anglophone sphere. Any quick look given at the French version, previous versions of this page, and the reality or simply objective reading (for.ex: one line over Julian Assange, whose collaboration with has triggered tens and tens of secondary sources, four lines over a distorted article published by an french extreme right media over a letter sent to a prisonner rightafter). Over what merit should this behavior be protected by the institution, and how can you justify it, whatever your perception about what should be my role or not over this page ?

:::A "quick look" shows the history is a mess. It is obvious that you have repeatedly edited the article under a number of accounts and while logged out. It is unclear who has edited from the "other side" of the dispute and what interrelations they have. They make a point about the tone issues in your preferred version. It's harder to see where the current version tilts completely to the negative side, when the negative information was so concealed in the other version. |

:::: ], these elements you are asking for are distributed over the discussion page, have been very clearly enounced, and sourced, but have been systematically withdrawn by the two said accounts, in spite of interventions by me but also by other less systematic contributors which have no link to me, but visibly not the capacity to derail the afforementioned wills. They rely over important sources, were consensual before their arrival, and have been shrinked or erased because they found it interesting to do so, only leaving space to new negative elements that arouse at the same time, in the context of intense polemic in France due to the withdrawal of Emmanuel Macron candidate to Paris Cityhall, after the action of one of my clients. What happens in this situation, in a low intensity page in which it suffices to have a lot of time to impose its view ? Why should their version, libellous be maintained undefinitely, since that no other user whom has taken the time to try to reequilibrate this page has been systematically turned down, and since no experimented administrator has until now taken the time to actually solve the issues ? What you are proposing is ''de facto'' an undefinite preservation of the perspective imposed by two users, including a SPA, which have made of this page a playgame to whether their resentment, their subjectivity or their interests, containing false accusations and a disproportionately negative perspective. It is, whilst admitting this version is not consensual nor objective - and not because I say so, but factually - that it should serve as the reference version until someone has the time to eventually look at it. Weaponizing Misplaced Pages as these users have very efficiently done (and tried to do in the French Version), should not be awarded by the encyclopedia, especially when it is done against (young) living individuals occupying confrontational positions against important institutions and powers, with little capacities to defend themselves. The example of the WP FR should be used to understand the abyss between WP EN version and, not only reality, but what a community consensus can produce. ] (]) 21:06, 24 November 2020 (UTC) |

For the record, the so-called "consensual version" is the version at the opening date of the second AfD of this article (see at the top of this page). The AfD discussion shows clearly that this version was a hagiography, and the consensus for keeping the article was reach only because of major edits that were done during the AfD discussion. So, it is definitively a lie to say that this version was consensual. ] (]) 14:26, 26 November 2020 (UTC) |

== Lead == |
|
|
I think the lead could still use some rework. |
|
|
|
|
|
The current version: |
|
|
:He was identified as a Yellow Vest defender and one of the French Assange lawyers. He defends some of the Yellow Vests in court and the movement in the media. His 2019 book, criticizing the links between President Emmanuel Macron, the media and wealthy businessmen, was a success on the internet and sold 130,000 copies. He gained supplementary notoriety in France in early 2020 for his involvement in the Griveaux affair. |
|
|
|
|
|
Some parts seems rather redundant (e.g. mentioning the Yellow Vests twice). The passive construction "was identified" also seems clumsy. The accusation in the book should not be stated as fact. The word "supplementary" is probably a direct translation from French and doesn't work very well imo. |
|
|
|
|
|
I suggest: |
|
|
:He worked on the legal team of Julian Assange and has been an outspoken supporter of the Yellow Vest movement, some of which he also represented in court. In 2019 he authored a commercially successful book critical of French President Emmanuel Macron. In early 2020 he gained further notoriety for his involvement in the Griveaux affair. |

The 3 tags were placed by a new user, without any discussion on the talk page. The present state of the article results essentially from the consensus supporting the closing decision of the second AfD. So, non-neutrality, and factual non-accuracy require strong arguments to be considered as disputed. The {{tl|COI}} tag is ridiculous as the main contributors are clearly not favorable to the subject of the article. Therefore, I'll remove the three tags. ] (]) 12:12, 2 January 2021 (UTC) |

The whole article is hagiographical. This person is more well-known for publicly trying to be associated with well-known cases, than actually having any substantial contribution to any of them. |
|

All reference to Julian Assange should be removed. Maybe they had some contact at some point, thinking he was serious, but he was not on his legal team. His lawyer was Vey: https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20200907-julian-assange-is-a-victim-of-torture-lawyer-antoine-vey-tells-france-24 There is only one source saying that he was a legal correspondant of WikiLeaks (not Assange) at one point, but that is not notable. There are also sources mentioning him as being on his team, but never when the article is about Assange, this is because he is claiming it everywhere and nobody verifies. If he has been involved at some point, it has necessarily been extremely brief, like in the other cases. |

== Many assertions relying on sources that have conflict of Interest with Juan Branco == |

Hello, I see many assertions in this article relying on 1 or 2 sources that are at conflict of Interest with Juan Branco because of his book Crepuscule critizing them and/or revealing their dependancy to their billionaires shareholders. For example, one Parisien article (owned by Bernard Arnault, heavely critized in the book) is used 4 times to quote negative elements on Juan Branco - it's the 3rd citation "Tabet Le Parisien dans les réseaux de Juan Branco". There are also citations from Paris Match that are COI. |
|
|
|
|
|
Could the person that added these quotes find other more independant sources ? I can't find these elements in other independant articles so if there is no further citations added I might delete the quotes. ] (]) 18:07, 13 March 2023 (UTC) |

I keep seeing accusation being raised of uncoordinated and biased changes, double standards for sources etc and calls to alignment on the discussion page. Yet with literally dozens of daily changes and comments on the talk page, when I point out serious misrepresentations of the sources as to the Attal affair or CV embellishments, nothing of this gets answered or addressed and it stays there like it doesn't matter. |

je vous remercie. Votre ancien collège a, de façon obsessionnelle et systématique, arpenté Misplaced Pages afin d'y publier des informations extraordinairement dénigrantes et violentes me concernant, notamment sur la page Misplaced Pages anglaise, ainsi que sur d'autres personnes, tout en créant ses propres pages en plusieurs langues. |

|
::I beg to differ. |
|
|
::A lot of the changes by the sock-puppet are not good faith edits (that's the whole point of sock-puppet). |
|
|
::Some (not all) were discussed, mainly with @], who tried I good faith to meet the sock-puppet halfway. Issue is: meeting half-way somebody pushing lies into the article is not conducive of quality. |
|
|
::Those edits build-up to the whitewashing I previously pointed out. At what stage you ignored the obvious and raised some accusations against me instead. |
|
|
::The white-washing is nonetheless obvious: the edits gradually removed most content that could cast a negative light (entire sections disappeared) while on the few remaining contentious topics, most/all information on the substance of the cases held against Branco disappeared and was replaced by lengthy descriptions of the arguments/ claims made by Branco in his defense. Even some that are stated to be untrue by the mere source used as "proof" (eg. Abdeslam case: the newspaper states that Branco's arguments are factually untrue and disproves them, yet it is a thorough presentation of his arguments that made their way into the WP article without any mention of the newspaper's conclusion that it is an obvious misrepresentation of facts). ] (]) 20:43, 25 August 2023 (UTC) |

::::On the topic of BlackSun16, he doesn't seem to have been ever on WP-EN, however his pattern on the French version leaves little room for doubt. I raised to the attention of editors on the French talk page and NinjaRobotPirate's page : |
|
|
::::- a previous sock-puppet Paulk12 gets blocked Feb 20th, |
|
|
::::- very same day BlackSun16 is created, |
|
|
::::- on that day BlackSun16 makes 5 edits in 5 minutes, for a total ... 18 characters (Is there some kind of 5 edit threshold ?) |
|
|
::::- Absolutely no activity for 6 months (Is there a 6 months threshold ?) |
|
|
::::- Imagritte gets blocked in end of July |
|
|
::::- BlackSun16 arrives on Branco's page August 19th and makes a whopping 68'500 characters one-time addition to Branco's French article, |
|
|
::::- barring another very singular similar contribution to Emmanuel Todd's page, the activity of BlackSun16 is 99% (in volume = characters) on Branco's page, |
|
|
::::- arrival on Aug. 19th is a mere hours before Neo Trixma also arrives on Branco's French page and starts a duet with BlackSun16 supporting each other in a very intense edit war. |

:::::My thoughts on the article would be to keep it reasonably concise at the moment as Branco is only borderline notable and probably would not be notable at all if it wasn't for ''Crépuscule''. I cannot see that he has done anything particularly noteworthy in law or politics. There are millions of lawyers out there going about their business and they do not get Misplaced Pages articles. Likewise there must be millions of people who hang around on the fringes of politics without ever holding elected office. And he is not an academic so all those masters are not of much interest, except perhaps as background to a writer's career. Of course it might change in the future. ] (]) 10:46, 26 August 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::Fully agree. I would add that in France he is also notable for Griveaux affair. Even if he denied a direct implication, most French people believe that he is at the origin of the publication of the videos that pushed out politics a probable futur major of Paris. Also, it seems that his only success as a lawyer, is the case with his father (I do not count his successes for increasing his visibility in the medias). ] (]) 11:15, 26 August 2023 (UTC) |

Je ne sais quels motifs l'habitaient. Je sais cependant les dommages irréparables et la violence indécente qui s'en est suivie pour moi, à des âges où tout est encore à construire. Qu'un professeur honoraire des universités se soit "amusé" à cela, des années durant, usant de son autorité dans le champs mathématique (où il est un grand contributeur de l'encyclopédie), pour détruire un jeune homme, sous pseudo, est dégoûtant. |

I rolled back this edit. It's been added and removed before. I don't object to its inclusion if it has received a lot of coverage, but that doesn't appear to be the case. ] (]) 13:12, 29 August 2023 (UTC) |

Elle l'est également d'un point de vue moral, au regard de son statut, de son appartenance revendiquée à la communauté normalienne et à la fixation obsessionnelle qu'il semble faire sur la distinction entre "vrais" et faux normaliens, qui par ricochet atteint à de nombreuses autres personnes. |

Hi, I'm new on this page. I want to know why the New informations sourced were removed : the Spanish investigation started this March about the kidnapping of the activist in Mauritania. I put 2 strong sources. |

I do not really care of these threats, since they have absolutely no support in French law. Nevertheless, I think that the editors of this page and, more generally Misplaced Pages, must be informed of this Branco’s behavior. ] (]) 14:43, 18 March 2023 (UTC) |

:The introduction is a summary of the article. It it not the place for new information, which should go, with sources, into the body of the article. Since anything in the introduction has already been sourced in the body of the article, the introduction does not need references.

Hello @], what do you mean by "this article doesn't need expansion" ? I see that it is rated as "start-class" ] (]) 17:07, 29 April 2023 (UTC) |

:Maybe so, but the article is quite large, and although the French article ''is'' longer, I don't think expansion templates are of much use when you have articles of this size. You'd do better to expand it yourself rather than slapping on a template.--] (]) 18:01, 29 April 2023 (UTC) |
|
:I agree, and I would add that the information seems also not sufficiently noteworthy for being added in the body of the article. In any case, adding it to the body must respect the policy ]. The use of "kidnapping" for an arrest ordered by a legal authority is clerly a nonneutral formulation. ] (]) 10:09, 29 August 2024 (UTC) |

::Sorry I don't understand, goal of the template is to allow other people (and myself) to easily add translated content from the French article, why do you call that "slapping" ? This article is "start-class" while the French is "B-class", meaning many important informations seems to be lacking. ] (]) 18:57, 29 April 2023 (UTC) |

:::You still have not explained how the template helps you to add information from the French article. As I already stated, why don't you just do that? In fact, why don't you do it with other articles as well rather than single-mindedly doing nothing but placing templates on various articles?--] (]) 18:04, 30 April 2023 (UTC) |

::::Ad hominem ? It helps because it provides instant access to French article's translation (and guidelines), to ''anyone'' who has time to add content, which I eventually found much more useful than just acting on my own ''and'' is recommended here . ] (]) 19:37, 30 April 2023 (UTC) |

Sorry guys, but I can help being utterly puzzled at what happening here.
I keep seeing accusation being raised of uncoordinated and biased changes, double standards for sources etc and calls to alignment on the discussion page. Yet with literally dozens of daily changes and comments on the talk page, when I point out serious misrepresentations of the sources as to the Attal affair or CV embellishments, nothing of this gets answered or addressed and it stays there like it doesn't matter.
And when something finally happens, it's that the "question of integrity" paragraph gets discarded altogether while we are graced with the super important information of the composition of Lamaline basically implying "it's only paracetamol after all".
OK, so now it seems that Neo Trixma is blocked on the ground of being a sock puppet of Branco.
Which should come as no surprise since the account was apparently created on July 30th, shortly after Imagritte was blocked, and with an activity about 50% on Branco. And given too the nature of the contributions, which produced a considerable amount of whitewashing, as previously pointed out.
So what is the next step ? Revert to a consensual version pre-sock puppet, or try to untangle the Gordian knot of recent changes made in large part by the sockpuppet ? Ebtpmus (talk) 19:19, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
