SandyGeorgia's concerns were valid given that the material ended up on the main page.

::Disagree <small>(and clearly I was using the John Brown bit as an obvious artifice to make a point)</small>.

SG invoked hyperbole, actions which were utterly unwaranted. The fact she suspected that the candidate was a minor, indeed used it as part of her oppose rationale, just shows slowly making it less fun for the rest of us.

Sysop tools have nothing to do with content creation. As far as I am aware the bundle does not include an "add plagiarism button". I think that the allegation of plagiarism etc was irrelevant, and should have been made, if at all, in a different forum. ] (]) 13:55, 22 June 2011 (UTC) | |||

- Lighten up Sandy. I'm as concerned about this candidacy as you are, but picking unnecessary fights with other editors will only lead to unnecessary drama which might distract from the matters at hand. Miss E. Lovetinkle (talk) 09:24, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
As an oppose vote with no rationale is not harming the candidate very much (unlike, say, a "neutral" comment with some out-of context diffs that supposedly show the candidate's poor judgement: other people will use that as a reason to vote oppose), it is usually good for the candidate if no oppose rationales are given. And that is independent of the question whether the bureaucrats will count the vote or not. (They should: "I do not trust the candidate, but want others to make up their own mind about him/her instead of considering what I think" is a perfectly good reason to oppose without making the reason public). —Kusma (t·c) 07:05, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

- Don't worry - just realised KF is a 4chan troll - my mistake for getting sucked . Pedro : Chat 18:58, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
- Please have some respect for Guogo12, whose RfA talkpage this is, and take this elsewhere. Please. Truthkeeper88 (talk) 17:59, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
- I removed personal attacks against SG, many of which made sexist insinuations, per WP:NPA. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 16:53, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
- My sense is that this is creating unnecessary drama when drama should be avoided. My sense is that it's time to drop the stick, and take it up directly with SandyGeorgia if you feel so strongly. Anyway, myself, I'll drop it. Truthkeeper88 (talk) 22:35, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
Sysop tools have nothing to do with content creation. As far as I am aware the bundle does not include an "add plagiarism button". I think that the allegation of plagiarism etc was irrelevant, and should have been made, if at all, in a different forum. James500 (talk) 13:55, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
- Leaving aside the whole content creation debate, adding text which is potentially copyvio (I haven't checked whether it is in this case) would provide a good reason to oppose. Per WP:ADMIN: "Administrators are expected to lead by example and ... to follow Misplaced Pages policies". Relevant policies would include WP:V and WP:CV, and plagiarism does not qualify as leading by example. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:50, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
- Alright guys, what's done is done. Guoguo's gone, and this convo isn't helping anybody. Can I ask you to take it to your talk pages? Nolelover 16:06, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
- Personally I think James500 view is a bit myopic; but agree maybe this is not the place. The RfA talkpage, however, would be a very appropriate place to discuss this issue, imo. Truthkeeper88 (talk) 16:19, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
