User talk:MarkDilley/Archive4: Difference between revisions

Hello, I have a question: Are wiki-index articles supposed to be filled with hateful criticism of the wikis? It is weird, but the '''only wiki in the whole wiki-index with a criticism section is Conservapedia'''. And it takes most of the article! I think it should be only an index. Do not you think? People of [[RationalWiki (en)]] should not be the ones who edit that article! (Gulik, Proxima Centauri)

* [[RationalWiki (en)]] editors are the one who edit the entry and '''revert most other people's edits'''  <- '''Discrimination'''

There’s an edit war in progress over [[Conservapedia]], [[RationalWiki (en)]], and [[Talk:The Conservapedia RationalWiki war|The Conservapedia RationalWiki war]].  More can be found on the talk pages of all 3 articles and in the page histories.  I’m biased in favour of RationalWiki.  Conservapedia supporters would an impartial administrator to intervene.  I will try to summarize objectively.

#'''Conservapedia point of view''':  RationalWiki are wiki [[vandal]]s and irresponsible atheists.  We struggle to keep our wiki Christian and fundamentalist and RationalWiki vandals cause us constant problems. (As a [[RationalWiki (en)|RationalWikian]] I feel this criticism is true of a few RationalWikians but not all).  No other wiki has such long prominent criticism and Conservapedia shouldn’t either.  If criticism is allowed here critical sections can spread to other wikis and explode out of control.  Some users who appear neutral also feel that criticism shouldn’t be allowed because of this.  

I've blocked a user for [https://WikiIndex.org/index.php?title=Talk:RationalWiki_(en)&curid=14774&diff=67602&oldid=67601&rcid=72457 this edit].  [[User:Huw Powell]] and various unregistered users have been setting out to cause me problems for weeks.

:::Barbara (PS, that's my mother's name), ''you'' are the problem.  You are a power hungry, anguished person.  I never set out to "cause [you] problems", I came here because you whined on [[RationalWiki (en)]] and [[RationalWikiWiki]] about your own behavior being reported on.

:Once more, Proxima is abusing her [[admin]] rights at [[RationalWiki (en)]].  She has locked the article, and is taking advantage of RW being down to [[spam]] pointless links to her own pet wiki, [[Liberapedia]].  She also [https://WikiIndex.org/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=block&user=Proxima+Centauri&page= blocked a user] ([[User:Nx]]) for correcting her incompetence. I repeat, she is a power-mad authoritarian with very poor language and comprehension skills. (I can footnote those accusations if necessary).

::Mark, I see you have unblocked Nx and Phantom Hoover.  Good move, neither of them mean harm.  Can you also unlock the [[RationalWiki (en)]] article?  As of now Proxima Centauri is preventing anyone else from correcting her errors (and simply cleaning it up) by (ab)using her admin rights.  If you want to chat about this behind closed doors or whatever, I think my email is enabled (or ask me on my talk page if you prefer another venue). I understand she has been very helpful here at times with the chores of blocking wandals, locking pages, and burning offensive edits, but seriously, this issue is so trivial it's not funny.  It certainly did not require her to run around smacking people left and right.

==[[RationalWiki (en)|RationalWiki]], heavy handed?==

:::[[Talk:RationalWiki (en)|Here's "your" article]]. It seems to have some similar wiki's missing but anyone can fix that. Plus you get to see some of the real inner-workings of "reason in action". I'd say this much better reflects the "community property" that Nx said he would favor. What's the big deal? Not as pretty anymore? [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 16:39, 6 September 2009 (EDT)

I have to agree with the comments from others that removing the descriptions from [[Liberapedia]], [[RationalWiki (en)]], [[Conservapedia]], [[A Storehouse of Knowledge]], and [[RationalWikiWiki]] is unnecessary. The only one of those that has been edited much recently is RationalWiki's page, and the real argument about that one was finished days ago. Of the other four, the only edits in the last week have been from me updating the page statistics on two, and [[User:Phantom Hoover|Phantom Hoover]] fixing a grammatical error on another.

::::I think that many of those who post criticisms in talk pages, would prefer pages for criticism. You know like all those that {{U|Nx}} tucked away into [[Talk:RationalWiki (en)/Archive1]]. There are plenty left outside the "archive". If these people don't feel they are being heard, then they leave. The way it should be, right? Do you think this is true or false, Human? Or will this be another one of my questions that you simply dismiss as "incomprehensible" (to you)? [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 04:49, 12 September 2009 (EDT)
