- analog8374 4mo agoEverything I ever added to Wikipedia was removed, within the day, by a very diligent and hard-working Wikipedia person.
- realitylabs 4mo agoSame. My experience with the “concept” of Wikipedia was very high until I had the “direct experience” of Wikipedia, and I realized that the encyclopedia of the commons may not have planned for me to be in the commons.
- squigz 4mo agoEverything I've ever added was kept.
- chris_wot 4mo agoGood for you I guess. Everything I ever added was kept, and I was permanently banned. I created [ciation needed], started the admins noticeboard, reworked the USA Patriot Act article, wrote numerous articles for WiR with extensive referencing, contributed to peer review and good article reviews, and a shitload more, but nope. Not good enough. Why anyone would contribute to that cesspool is anyone’s guess.
- squigz 4mo agoThis comment is a little light on the reasoning for why you were permabanned.
- chris_wot 4mo agoI commented on BrownHairedGirl’s RFA. The most toxic user ever on Wikipedia. I can assure you, there are those on Wikipedia who committed far worse offenses and they remain. Like I say - a cesspool that doesn’t respect article writers.
- bragr 4mo agoWere you Chris.sherlock/Aussie Article Writer on Wikipedia? Sounds like pot calling the kettle black re: toxic. You had an interaction ban against her FFS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive1076#h-Piotrus'_concerns_about_User:BrownHairedGirl-2021-08-08T15:43:00.000Z https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_no...
- chris_wot 4mo agoAnd why was that interaction ban enacted? It was immenseley unfair. It was pathetic in fact, given it was a one-way ban, and she had consistently denigrated me. Unless you think that's justice. So no, not the pot calling the kettle black in any way. She had her coiterie of followers, and she was banned as a bully. They enabled her.
- ChrisClark 4mo agoAh, I see, you were instigating constantly and people were sick of your shit. Seems like a reasonable ban, especially when you violated an IBAN already.
- chris_wot 4mo agoHow was I instigating constantly, Chris? Can you provide any evidence of that? Perhaps an ArbCom investigation? You can't, because that never happened. But hey, keep defending BrownHairedGirl. You seem to be fine with her constant abuse!
- kemayo 4mo agoSomeone did the research-digging a while back about this, if you want a third-party view: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45136376 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45136376
- jchw 4mo agoNot absolutely everything I've ever contributed was kept, but definitely a lot of it. I genuinely get the feeling that the modern Wikipedia hatred comes from somewhere other than a few unfortunate edit wars, but I'm not in-tune enough to know.
- dd8601fn 4mo agoI’ve seen the nit-pick reversions and I’ve seen clear ones. But when I hear people really complain somewhere I do tend to assume they were trying to smuggle in some specific messaging and got caught.
- HoldOnAMinute 4mo agoSame. Even a single sentence with an easily verifiable fact. Reverted in seconds.

- LorenPechtel 4mo agoI'm sort of in the middle on this. Some pages have somebody guarding the party line, anything that goes against that gets reverted. (How can putting an accurate link behind a piece of text be wrong??) Pages without such guardians I've never had an issue.
- jchw 4mo agoOkay, I stand corrected, but I also stand by that it is interesting that it is pointed out that "The project was inspired by SequoiaView" in the lead section, but not that it was a direct port of KDirStat. It feels odd but also intentional, so I never bothered to change it. I'll leave it up to if anyone else feels similarly enough to do so, because then at least that means there are two of us.
