Re: Average Wikipediocrazy "discussion"
Does the model of WP as a Mass Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game still apply? Yes. The rules have changed, but not significantly enough to make it a different game. Two of your three bullet points can be attributed to the growth of bureaucracy meant to regulate user in-game behavior, so if "rogu...

Re: Average Wikipediocrazy "discussion"
...as for "calm and rational discussion"........numerous people have tried that, over and over, since 2004. Such things don't work with a "cultic network" like Wikipedia. They are too busy fighting stupid wars and knifing people in the back to seriously engage in "rational discussion". Baby steps, ...

Re: User:Tranarchist "civility concerns"

Re: Around the Administrators in 80 days....
And try as I might, with suckadmin sending me threats via intermediaries No one told me to write you. It was really me trying to preempt another sudden ban which it sounded might be imminent.

Re: Political bias and squabbling
probably the most biased line ive seen in a while is in a section of the "Unite the Right rally" article : "Efforts by Trump and his supporters to rewrite the history of the rally" Why does such a section even exist? Just describe what did happen and leave it at that. Unless the goal is "This artic...
