Revision as of 12:38, 19 March 2015

This editor has joined in opposition to the targeting of editors by the correct "Point of View" and "Ideology" crowd so that the majority of us can keep the encyclopedia free for anyone to edit and not let it become the encyclopedia edited only by those who have yet to do something unacceptable to the easily-offended.
Don't let the octopus of the easily-offended bring down the entire project!

Re:

For the record, now that Catflap08 is retired, I am probably going to be able to tone down my "gross" language, since I no longer have to put up with him pushing his own fringe POV on the Kenji article over and over and over and over and over again. It was extremely annoying, and caused me to lose my cool very briefly. I'm done now. And I have no intention of seeking further sanctions against you for defending his abuses, unless you actually try to continue his "good work" of promoting "truth" in this matter. Farewell and happy editing. Hijiri 88 (やや) 00:46, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

@Hijiri88:, For the record, that in no way excuses your conduct to date, particularly considering the regularity with which you have indulged in grossly unacceptable language yourself. The "very briefly" comment is frankly laughable, considering how often you have lost your cool. You also seem to be incompetent to recognize how annoying your own inexcusable conduct has been. In all honesty, at this point, considering how explicitly you seem to both insist on assuming bad faith of others while at the same time showing absolutely no competence to recognize how regularly you have indulged in excusable conduct, I very much regret that I cannot say that should I see further evidence of your continuing your grossly unacceptable conduct I will not seek sanctions on you.

You joined about two weeks ago, some nine months into my dispute with Catflap. He had been behaving very poorly throughout. Hijiri 88 (やや) 13:54, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
As have you during the time I have seen. John Carter (talk) 15:38, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Clarification

A couple editors voiced opposition to a copy/paste of COI-created copy. I actually pinged @Coretheapple:, knowing this was his position. Most editors that oppose the copy/paste approach recommend instead that a conflicted editor point out specific problems in the article and provide sources. I was trying to follow through on their preferred method of collaboration.

Truth be told, there are only maybe a dozen good sources on her and a high quality page could be created in just a couple hours. This seems unreasonably hard for a short page on a minor BLP, but I guess I'll just keep dredging along. CorporateM (Talk) 08:26, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
