I just read this wonderful article on wikipedia today, I recommed it to anyone. New Yorker: Can Misplaced Pages conquer expertise? Why do I bring this up? "Martin Wattenberg and Fernanda B. Viégas, two researchers at I.B.M. who have studied (wikipedia) said: "Wattenberg and Viégas have also identified a “first-mover advantage”: the initial contributor to an article often sets the tone" User:Fred Bauder has a “first-mover advantage” and is setting the tone of this arbitration. I would plead with others editors to take the initative and be independent in your assessment of this arbitration. At first glance, from someone who has never looked at this case, this appears to be a case of admins protecting their own, which is never really acknowleged, but happens frequently on wikipedia. Can I say this last sentence without being booted? If this is against some policy I am unaware of, please let me know and I will delete it immediatly. I am not accusing User:Fred Bauder of anything, when I say this, I mean the arbitration in general. I am just expressing my opinion. Travb (talk) 16:32, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Links to attack site

3) Links to attack sites may be removed by any user and are exempt from 3RR. Deliberately linking to an attack site may be grounds for blocking.

Comment by Arbitrators:

Comment by parties:

It is extremely important for "attack site" to be defined clearly. It is unacceptable for this to be up to individuals to arbitrarily determine. Also, it needs clarification if "attack site" means all of a site, or just a portion of it. If NYTIMES.COM tomorrow does an expose on WP including sensitive personal info, do we no longer use NYtimes.com as a reference source? Dangerous open ended wording. rootology (T) 20:48, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by others:

Solidarity

4) Misplaced Pages users, especially administrators, will not permit a user under attack to be isolated, but will support them. This may include reverting harassing edits, protecting or deleting pages, blocking users, or desyopping uncooperative administrators.

Guilt by association

6) Mere participation in a website which spoofs or criticizes Misplaced Pages is not an actionable offense in itself. No individual, even a sysop, on a Wiki is in control of content.

Editors on any wiki, especially sysops, are in control of content to a degree. Vandalism and harassment on Misplaced Pages are reverted on sight.--MONGO 18:52, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, should someone enjoy playing rascal, they must conform to the role while playing it. They cannot, from time to time, play prude then go back to rascal. Nasty drama is not reverted on ED, but praised. Fred Bauder 21:06, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

The problem with MONGOs logic here is that it assumes that any one person can make final decisions on 3rd party content. For a good example of why this is flawed, see Daniel Brandt. Does he get to decide what is excluded against majority here? rootology (T) 20:50, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by others:

I agree with Mongo here. Perhaps a better description would be: "Mere participation in a website which spoofs or criticizes Misplaced Pages is not an actionable offense in itself. No individual, even a sysop, on a Wiki is in absolute control of content, given the nature of a wiki. Content on Misplaced Pages that violates Misplaced Pages policy is subject to reversion or deletion." I think it would clarify the principle a little better, and remind about the fact that there are limits to acceptable content at WP.

Right to edit Misplaced Pages pseudononymously

10) Members of the Misplaced Pages community, including administrators, may choose whether to disclose their real-world identities on Misplaced Pages or to edit anonymously. The limited exceptions to this principle -- such as that members of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees must be publicly identified for legal reasons and that Wikipedians who are children should not disclose personal identifying information for safety reasons -- have no application to this case.

Comment by others:

Most Wikipedians edit pseudonymously

11) For a variety of reasons, a majority of Wikipedians, including many administators, have availed themselves of the ability to edit without disclosing their real-world identities. Experience has shown that many editors and some administrators would not edit Misplaced Pages or would limit their participation if their edits would result in disclosure of their real-world identities.

Personal morals and ideals

Comment by Arbitrators:

Comment by parties:

If it is not proper for me to leave this, I ask for an arbiter to remove it. This has been what I've been argueing since Day 1 of this mess. Delete the article if it merits deletiion per Misplaced Pages policy, but do not dress it up in your beliefs as such. If you hate a given topic with all your heart, that's meaningless. Only application of WP rules govern what merits inclusion as an article. Many people here loathe Daniel Brandt et al, but he's still here. Many people are offended by all sorts of religious or sexual matters--but they merit inclusion. No person's morals shall trump the project itself. Morals are irrelevant. rootology (T) 21:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Rootology

5) Rootology (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) was involved in the Bantown deletion debate and strongly argued against deletion of Encyclopædia Dramatica, see . In addition to complaining about MONGO's efforts to defeat harassment , , , , , complained about Mongo's edits to ED Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive121#How_to_report_abusive_admin_editing.3F_.2F_updated_with_details.

Is the ArbComm going to address whether Rootology was wikistalking Mongo and others? Thanks, TheronJ 13:34, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

I don't think so. I doubt he will be able to continue to edit with that name anyway. He is however welcome to create a new username and edit in a normal manner. Stalking will give that away should he engage in it. Fred Bauder 14:26, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Fred, I strongly disagree with your opinion here and ask that the question of stalking be addressed (even if found to go against me). I absolutely did no such thing with MONGO, and as demonstrated in my evidence I shot his "theory" of that full of 1,000 holes. He was barely even involved not even editing in 99% of the articles I supposedly stalked him on. rootology (T) 20:53, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Weevlos

6) Weevlos (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) has copied charges against MONGO and other administrators to User:Weevlos/Compiling Evidence. These were originally placed on his talk page by Trazombigblade .

I see no evidence that Badlydrawnjeff was critical of the ED articles that exist on the ED website which are there attacking Wikipedians, he was understanding about it here, in that he seemingly disapproved.--MONGO 18:34, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Check his user page there. Fred Bauder 18:38, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I see that the "Webmaster" on the ED website posted a comment he made here on his userpage there.--MONGO 19:00, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Badlydrawnjeff states he is "gone" and they can feel free to desyop him., and that was his last edit there under that username.--MONGO 19:21, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I misunderstood, however, bottom line he is on the outs. Fred Bauder 21:44, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

So you're accusing me of sockpuppetry there? --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:11, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, it's a general attempt to smear your evidence, as the statement appears to be baseless and without evidence. rootology (T) 20:56, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, it's a reasonable observation...the evidence supports that Badlydrawnjeff is no longer editing at ED...but when he continues to fight to restore the ED article, it makes me question whether he has actually left the site fully.--MONGO 21:00, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

...or, some people refuse to let broadly stroked ideological reasons affect common sense and set precedent. Similar to the civil conversation you and I had on your talk page re: the 9/11 stuff. I don't personally agree with the Jones/truth movement ideas, but I'll fight tooth and nail to keep them in and represented in a NPOV tone of view. The problem is that people's personal morals and ideals are beginning to widespread encroach and creep into WP, poisoning it slowly from the ground up. Like groundwater pollution. Any users, or group of users, personal morals, ideals, etc. have no appropriate place in any content or article matters. Facts are facts, is what I've been trying to hammer since Day 1 of this... rootology (T) 21:21, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, broadly stroked ideological reasons, "stop the Neocon POV pushing hockey goons".--MONGO 22:07, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

yes, I still think the site is worthy of inclusion. Trust me, after the situation with you and another ED situation with another editor here, they don't want me around. --badlydrawnjeff talk 02:51, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by others:

Encyclopædia Dramatica

13) Encyclopædia Dramatica (ED) is a wiki which spoofs and caricatures Misplaced Pages. Its content is provocative, satirical, and often interesting. It makes no pretense of presenting accurate information, focusing rather on what is termed "drama", which is to say, interesting provocative material concerning the internet and its memes.

Proposed Fred Bauder 12:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Per my above comments, this is simply factually incorrect. It looks like even "wiki"--not even WP itself--stuff is a fraction of their content. rootology (T) 20:58, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by others:

Provocative material on ED

14) ED contains a few articles which sharply satirize prominent Wikipedians, including an article on MONGO which was featured on its Main Page. That article includes a number of specific alleged "misdeeds". There have been efforts on Misplaced Pages to link to, and in one case, import such material from ED.

Deletion of ED

16) As the result of Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Encyclopædia Dramatica (3rd nomination) the article was recently deleted. The reason given was that the content of the article was mainly derived from ED and our reaction to it, there being very little other information available to use as a reliable source. A number of Misplaced Pages users known or suspected of involvement with ED argued for its retention while MONGO and users aligned with his position argued for deletion.

Comment by Arbitrators:

Proposed Fred Bauder 13:40, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by parties:

Factually incorrect assertation and wording. The stated (incorrect) reason for AfD on the AfD was that it failed to meet notability standards. The ED article itself as I remember it from time of deletion had nothing to do with the "MONGO drama" aside from the inclusion of the vandalized image days before. rootology (T) 21:00, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by others:

Consider rephrasing the statement "A number of Misplaced Pages users known or suspected of involvement with ED argued for its retention". Whilst the reasons for the conclusion of the AfD are agreable as fact, it only speculates as to sockpuppetry. The wording here appears to imply that all those who argued for keep where suspected as being involved with ED, involved in this case also implying active within the ED community. (Again, pure procedural point, no comment on the issues otherwise) LinaMishima 19:50, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Fuckface

17) PrivateEditor (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is apparently a prominent editor on ED, see Image:MongoUSDHS.jpg which was uploaded by ED user "Fuckface" and used in the MONGO article there. From editing patterns there is circumstantial evidence that Rootology (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and PrivateEditor are the same user Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/MONGO/Evidence#Is_Rootology_an_ED_user.3F.

The evidence presented by Mushroom is compelling but not proof per se that Rootology is PrivateEditor is Fuckface.--MONGO 05:26, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

The image is proof that Fuckface is PrivateEditor. Hint, look at the red link to the user at the top of the page. I will examine Rootology's edits. If he is editing responsibly, it is at least evidence that he can successfully wear two hats. Fred Bauder 11:36, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I saw that when Mushroom posted the evidence of course. I've been convinced all along Rootology is an ED editor, but my sentiments are that this entire thing, as far as I am concerned, has suceeded in what his and others intentions were all along, which was to create more drama.--MONGO 14:25, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

A successful decision will soon make this matter as dull as a butterknife. A fly swatting show. Fred Bauder 21:49, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment by others:

The sentance begining with "From editing patterns there is circumstantial evidence…" should probably be striked out and given it's own section, the relivance of that statment is dependant upon the rest of this one, and it may be contested whilst the rest of this statement agreed with. There is also no assertion present in the above linking the user Fuckface with PrivateEditor or Rootology, which suggests that perhaps you may wish to split these asertions up further. It is generally a good idea to put forth a single arguement at a time (No comment otherwise on any of this, just a procedural point). LinaMishima 19:38, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Encyclopedia Dramatica as an outing and attack site

18) Numerous pages of the Encyclopedia Dramatica website purport to disclose detailed information concerning the names, geographical locations, ISP's, and personal attributes of various Misplaced Pages administrators and editors. Any Wikipedian whose conduct assists the ED editors in compiling and publicizing such information has acted contrary to the best interests of the Misplaced Pages community.

My sending of an image to someone was abused, and I don't ever plan on using the name again, so thats fine. I don't even remember the password to be honest. rootology (T) 21:02, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Rootology admitted that the PrivateEditor account is also his, so I never asked for a checkuser verification.--MONGO 21:17, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Unless ArbCom is declaring that as official policy that "There will never be an article on ED" again on WP, this is a bad idea. I'd link to the silly Crystal Ball essay, but it's not needed. Something could theoretically happen at any time that could grant this (or any site) sufficient notability that they would be worthy of inclusion as an article. rootology (T) 21:04, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
