:Also, it wasn't good that [[BoyWiki]] got deleted, but whatever, the rest of the Internet doesn't seem to like this wiki all that much anyway. Even when you do what they want, they're not happy. People still probably think WikiIndex is "dominated" by me. [[User:Leucosticte|Leucosticte]] ([[User talk:Leucosticte|talk]]) 16:03, 10 December 2017 (PST)

::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!  I find enWiki totally shocking, and editors and admins are behaving totally against their own policies.
::As for a replacement for Meta-Wiki, have you thought about [[Semantic MediaWiki]]?  That is a 'meta' for the SMW suite, they are a bunch of good guys, and crucially, they are also MediaWiki developers.  As for what others think of your status here on WikiIndex, I feel they perhaps misunderstand you.  I personally strongly value your competence and enthusiasm, and am happy to defend your contributions.  Okay, I do not personally agree with some of your interests, and providing you don't try to force-feed them (which you do not), I will be tolerant of them without endorsing them.  And I have found you always respectful of my opinions and requests, and genuinely appreciate your efforts in developing and evolving WikiIndex as a whole.  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]]?  The log doesn't give a reason, and its [[Talk:BoyWiki|talk page]] just seems to be full of sock IPs flaming it.  I would appreciate your honest recollections if possible.  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 18:03, 10 December 2017 (PST)
