Disruption, Single purpose account created for AFD purposes. WP:CIVILITY violation I could accept but Disruption is not a reason. - Edtropolis
Why should we defend you? We're not your defense attorney. - ADMIN
Yeah, What did you say on WP:AFD? - Miss Deep
All I used is Conspiracy theory. - Edtropolis
What do you think? - ADMIN
We can't help you because you ignored the Wikipedia's Policies and Guidelines. - Jtaylor1
Oh, come on. - Edtropolis
Oh, come on. nothing. You deserve your punishment, now depart from us, ye cursed. Into everlasting fire, prepared for you and your family. - Jtaylor1
Please spare me. - Edtropolis
Sorry, but your acting like an idiot. Keep whining and we will block the Library's IP (Via ORLS) indefinitely and we'll report the abuse to them. Guess what happens next, you'll go to prison for a really long time, you'll lose your SSI, and maybe you'll go suicidal and burn in hell. - Jtaylor1
That's mean, honey! Just leave him alone. He's just a innnocent guy from the Stupid Ages. - Miss Deep
Sorry, Miss Deep! That's my final judgement on the abuser. Case Closed. - Jtaylor1
Edtropolis is at it again, but this time he is attacking the main page, not just attacking the sections of it. User:Miss Deep has been talking to him. - ADMIN
I'm going to temporarly blocking the anons from viewing and editing until we debate this incident. -Jtaylor1
I read the block and protection logs on Wikipedia. It looks like he did a number on his talk page saying "Wikipedia is a fascist" and "Did I mention you and Wikipedia are fascists?". He's accusing Wikipedia for being a fascist. - ADMIN
We'll I can't range perma-block the IP because the IPs belong to the Georgia Public Library Service (GPLSNET). It's better if I prevent anons from viewing and editing. Good thing we have a control panel.
We have a control panel? - Miss Deep
Yes. it's in the toolbox column. - Jtaylor1
Do the GPLSNET have web blockers? - Miss Deep
Yes. But they block the content that is Occultic, demonic, and you know the rest. The GPLSNET appears to be christian of some sort because some state residents may be christian.- Jtaylor1
Anyway, how did Edtropolis managed to attack our main page? - Miss Deep
Hacking, maybe. - Jtaylor1
Yeah. He may have a Mozilla Firefox malware to hack this wiki. - ADMIN
Checked his edits on CheckUser using the GPLSNET IP and it came out with no results. You were right, Admin. He may have a Firefox malware to hack this wiki. - Jtaylor1
Maybe you should check his IP on the Control panel. - ADMIN
Checked his IP and his Wikipedia User Name there. No results. He hasn't created an account on this wiki because either we haven't heard of him or he mightive bypassed the protected main page by hacking. But I should check with Jimbo Wales or Splarka (Splaka in Uncyclopedia) and see if they knows what happened. I should also tell them that we had the same problem as they had. - Jtaylor1
Good luck, buddy. - ADMIN
Thanks, dude. - Jtaylor1
I looked at their Adminstrator's Noticeboard in the incidents archive #262 Section 53 and here's a list of what he commented on AfD.
- Delete. Non-notable drug." for a travelogue
- "Weak delete. He seems to be Mexican." for a Hungarian scholar
- "Delete. Most likely a hate group." for a Belgian music scene
- "Redirect to Graves Disease [a thyroid disease]." for an unrelated neurological disease
- "Redirect to Flashdance." for an unrelated stage musical
- "Delete… possibly a hoax." for a well-sourced Britney Spears album
- "Weak Keep. Appears to be a conspiracy theory web site." for a Trotskyist journal
Okay, I think either Edtropolis himself has been high on drugs or the Members of Wikipedia are acting like little bratty children. - Jtaylor1
I have to agree with you. Would you like to consider a negotiation with Edtropolis or do you want to keep anons from viewing and editing this wiki? Because I want to let them see it. - ADMIN
Okay, a negotiation with Edtropolis, then we'll try to deal with Wikipedia. I'm turning the viewing and the editing block off, so anons can contribute. - Jtaylor1
Thank you, honey. I knew you would reconsider. - Miss Deep
Small talk later, negotiation now. Edtropolis, I'm here to make a negotiation with you. Are you listening to me? - Jtaylor1
Yes. - Edtropolis
If you promise to cool your heels, quit using harsh words on this wiki, and be a good citizen, then we'll see about making a deal with Wikipedia. But in the mean time, you are forbidden to edit Wikipedia because if they think the GPLSNET IP is a sockpuppet of your user name, they'll probably block it for 1 year and they'll blame us and the GPLSNET for Internet abuse. You may read their content, but you can't edit it. Agree? - Jtaylor1
Agree. - Edtropolis
Also, you are welcome to edit Bubblegum Wiki anonomously or you can get yourself an account. But no personal attacks here like you did on Wikipedia. If you feel upset or disturbed, leave me a message on my talk page. I'm always here to help.--Jtaylor1 10:42, 25 June 2007 (EDT)
Thanks. - Edtropolis
Good. that's settled then. It the mean time, calm yourself down. - Jtaylor1
I removed his attacks on the top of the the main page and I also replaced Jimbo Wales with Edtropolis as our Zing of the Day. - Jtaylor1
I'm honored. - Edtropolis
Glad you liked it. Just leave a message on my talk page, if you have an idea for The Zing of the Day. - Jtaylor1
Edtropolis, I'm appointing you as my personal advisor. I've created a special page for you on my sub-page. You can decorate it but please don't make personal attacks, okay?
Okay. - Edtropolis
I haven't made a deal with Wikipedia yet. But I should get right on it ASAP. Enjoy your fun. - Jtaylor1
Any luck? - ADMIN
No, I have talked to the Members of Uncyclopedia, they're going to get to the bottom of this. They're either going to send Hindleyite, Bradaphraser, or Splaka to Wikipedia and find out what happened with Edtropolis for his unjust block. - Jtaylor1
Okay. Miss Deep just baked those brownies like you asked. Does Edtropolis want some? ADMIN
Yes. - Edtropolis
Okay, Ed. - ADMIN
I relooked at Afd articles, appears he was lying. JTAYLOR1
What are waiting for? Delete the sub-page and prevent anons from viewing and editiing - ADMIN
I'm right on it. - JTAYLOR1
Why did you do that? - Edtropolis
You lied to us and now you made me prevent all other anons from viewing and editing. - JTAYLOR1
I'm sorry. - Edtropolis
Yeah, right. - JTAYLOR1
- "Redirect to Flashdance." for an unrelated stage musical.
It may be unstaged, but it's a still a good musical. - Edtropolis
Yeah, but the users have to disagree with your comments about the Britney Spears album being a hoax and also claiming that a Hungarian scholar is actually Mexican. Sorry, but this is where we draw the line. - JTAYLOR1
Yeah, I have to agree with JTAYLOR1 and most of important Armageddon pills is not a non-notable drug. You need professional help from the funny farm. - ADMIN
Um, Admin. I think he was correct about the pills being a non-notable drug except he was pointing to WP#NOTINFO as it were travelogue. - JTAYLOR1
I didn't mean it was travelogue, I meant it was a Soapbox of advertising. - Edtropolis
Okay. Okay. I will let you go and restore your subpage, but this is your last chance. If I find anymore Afd Articles that you commented about, you will be blocked from viewing and editing BG WIKI. - JTAYLOR1
Thank you. You won't be disappointed. - Edtropolis
You better believe I won't. Got that? - JTAYLOR1
One more thing. You commented Gruv's disease saying You mean Graves Disease. Redirect. Are you lying to me or were you preferring it as a misspelled title? - Jtaylor1
Misspelled title. - Edtropolis
Okay. Just want to check. We don't want to disable viewing and editing to anons, don't we? - Jtaylor1
No, sir. - Edtropolis
Good. Now have fun. - Jtaylor1
I just read Wikipedia's talk page guidelines and it looks like Edtropolis has violating the section "Behavior that is unacceptible". Should we delete his page and prevent anons from viewing and editing? - ADMIN
No, Admin. Just let it go. Edtropolis had learned his lesson and we treat each other with respect and be good citizens. Besides, the Wikipedians has just reached an all time high of mistreating an innocent by standard. No offense, Ed. -JTAYLOR1
None taken. - Edtropolis
Um you do realise that Uncyc has nothing to do with Wikipedia right? If you've been banned there, you need to talk to them about it, they can't help you, Ed! Jtaylor1, can we disable viewing and editing to anons now? - ADMIN
No. Let him stay with us. We can use the help. - Jtaylor1
Here's a section of Wikipedia's Blocking Policy
Disruption
A user may be blocked when his or her conduct severely disrupts the project; that is, when his or her conduct is inconsistent with a civil, collegial atmosphere and interferes with the process of editors working together harmoniously to create an encyclopedia. A block for disruption may be necessary in response to:
- persistent vandalism;
- persistent gross incivility;
- persistent harassment;
- persistently posting material contrary to the biographies of living persons policy;
- persistent spamming;
- edit warring or revert warring;
- breaching the sock puppetry policy;
- persistently violating other policies or guidelines, where there is a consensus among
- uninvolved users that the violation is disruptive.
Furthermore, some types of user accounts are considered disruptive and may be blocked:
- public accounts (where the password is publicly available or shared with a large group);
accounts with inappropriate usernames;
- bots operating without approval or outside their approval;
- accounts that appear, based on their edit history, to exist for the sole or primary purpose of promoting a person, company, product, service, or organization in apparent violation of Conflict of interest or anti-spam guidelines.
Edtropolis has never vandalized, spammed, or creating sockpuppets on Wikipedia. He never created a bot unless it is a spambot. Wikipedia permablocking Edtropolis for Disruption is too harsh. - Miss Deep
Yeah, Wikipedians can be so cruel to an innocent bystandard. That's how we soft block users and IPs. However, I'm not going to mess with Wikipedians and Jimbo Wales. - Jtaylor1
Here's another section.
While the duration of a block should vary with the circumstances, there are some broad standards:
- incidents of disruptive behaviour typically result in 24 hours blocks, longer for successive violations;
- accounts used primarily for disruption are blocked indefinitely;
- protective blocks typically last as long as protection is necessary, often indefinitely.
I say you should delete his special page protect this wiki from anonomous users from abusing BGWIKI, like Edtropolis did on Wikipedia. - ADMIN
Wikipedians should stick to soft blocks even if the user account is used primarily for disruption. The 24 hour blocks for disruptive behavior should be reduced to 24 minutes, which gives the users a time out to cool their heels and think about what they done. Once the block is expired, they may continue to contribute as they wish. Long term blocks and permablocks are only for spammers and users who continue to vandalize BGWIKI. However, I am concerned about the three new users. I looked up their IPs on WHOIS and I think we should monitor their edits, in case of spamming links. CheckUser doesn't seem to be working. We'll have a good weekend, I'm going to clean up. - JTAYLOR1
