Your argument is imagined. I did not agree. My conclusion there was and is: "Therefore my call is for hiding this entry until verified contact was made to her and her own intentions about this entry are known". Prior I said "Therefore I could see it as in the interest of the original author (Augustine) that those results of the breaches would be removed." I'm not surprised that You count that as agreement to delete. I wonder what she told You when You 'asked' her if the unpermitted publishing of her striptease would be ok? Maybe she answered like: "I think it is not so bad." But surely You can not remember the wording now any more, like all the unpleasant stuff. I used conditional. Conditional is not a yes. Conditional is clearly and unmistakeably a 'no', until the condition is met. The condition is not yet met. And even if the condition is met, it is not automatically a 'yes' until the condition is clearly defined as the only condition. I thought You are kind of fit in programming. But that has shown as a wrong supposition. Now, what I was insinuating under the not yet met condition, was not the deletion of the page, it was my sympathetic feelings for 'them' or their supposed (not actual) intention: "see it as in the interest of the original author (Augustine)". To call this my agreement is far from being true. Maybe You got too much experience with persuasion that You can see clearly any more?

::Thanks for your prompt reply. Great to hear from you. I did read about your global ban, and I was gobsmacked to be honest. Sadly, I too have been on the receiving end of utterly obnoxious admins, and other editors on enWiki - I have nearly 50 years professional experience in a certain industry, and school kid sysops (who have probably never earned a penny or dime in my industry) revert, rollback, and even threaten to ban me!

So for as long as I have a pulse, and active on here, am happy for you to resume here if you wish. What was the rationale for deleting [[BoyWiki]]?

:::There was [[WikiIndex_talk:Community_portal/Archive_3#BoyWiki.2FNewgon_Wiki_proposal|a debate]] on one of the community pages about deleting the pages on BoyWiki and a bunch of other wikis, and the vote ended up going against me. | |||
:::(It's actually kinda weird that the [[Nathania]] page hasn't been deleted, because that URL has been banned even from BoyChat. Even they don't want to be associated with it.) | |||
:::There also was pushback against "vanity" pages. It seems to me like WikiIndex was ''intended'' to be a bunch of vanity pages. The whole point of a public wiki besides Wikipedia is usually to serve as a repository for [[vanispamcruftisement]] that Wikipedia would delete. But, people wanted to pare down the vanity content, which means it had to go elsewhere, either to other wikis (most commonly), or to those wikis' own Project:About pages. | |||
:::It's also gotten harder to document what goes on at Wikipedia, because so much happens in secret now. When people get ArbCom- or globally banned, there's often no public case opened. They just have a discussion via their listserv or whatever other venue they use, and announce the decision. We're not even told which individuals favored or opposed the decision. The processes aren't as transparent as they used to be, which makes it harder to document wikipolitics. | |||
:::It just seems like a dark time for the wikisphere. Wikipedia, which serves as its hub, is getting more closed-off, with stuff like the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Autoconfirmed_article_creation_trial ACTRIAL] to get in the way of newbies' (or banned users like me) putting their ideas into effect immediately. There seems to be a growing sense among Wikipedians that their job is mostly finished, and that now mostly they just need to defend what they've already created. When people want to cover a news event, for instance, people say, "Wait ten years and then create this article when it's clear that the topic has enduring interest."

==How much honesty is left in You== | |||
We both know pretty well that any person with a connection to the internet can use any number of open proxies and post under any number of different ever changing IPs. I did this myself when I brought the house down on wiki wiki web for demonstrational purpose. --[[User talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 15:17, 14 December 2017 (PST) | |||

::Speaking of wikisphere, here [[WikiIndex:SiteStats]] I roughly estimate the number of wikis as 1 million by now. Given that the [[WikiWikiWeb]] has 36,854 pages, I admit that I deliberately created 12 pages, which amounts to 0.03 % of that wiki and 0.000,000,03 % of wikisphere which constitutes a rather homoeopathic concentration. You see, numerically Your exaggeration is 1:1.000.000.000, one to a billion. You are not just shooting a sparrow with cannons, You try to kill an ant by setting free the atomic arsenal of USA. This only shows how much fear is inside You. But this fear is not because of me or anybody else. It is because of what You did in the past and which You can never undo. To try to counteract ones inner fear by attacking others is the one and only cause of every war. It does never work. The fear always remains and increases as much as one goes to war. --[[User talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 02:26, 15 December 2017 (PST) | |||
::P.S.:You completely evaded the actual question of Your honesty or the detail of IP-editing via open proxy, which means, that You where in no way at all able to provide something that could pose as an argument. --[[User talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 02:31, 15 December 2017 (PST) | |||
