How Bbb23 probably looks like!
Cliched but true. Also, this edit to their userpage is hilarious: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?ti ... 1043980363

Re: Wikipedia is Neither Free Nor an Encyclopedia
At least until recently, Wikipedia was everywhere on the internet, including the first pages of search results. It's just another media-sponsored monopoly, with some differences in how the site structure is arranged. People think they can edit anonymously, but then their IP ranges are blocked entire...

Re: [Satire] Let's remove all the articles, but keep the Sockpuppet investigations
Another idea: Awards are given to users that have socked the least. For instance, one could create an account and never use it. That person would automatically receive an award/barnstar every ten years. The only other award would be based on the number of successful sockpuppet investigations, of cou...

[Satire] Let's remove all the articles, but keep the Sockpuppet investigations
:whambo: I mean, who needs good writing, peer review, and neutrality anyway? We all know that the true purpose of the Encyclopedia for centuries was sockpuppet investigations. Basically, every user fights sockpuppetry, or is a sock. Alternate accounts that are undisclosed are socks, editing while lo...

Re: MIT students don't understand the value and taste of freshly milled whole wheat flour. No wonder the world is messe
I've had this argument with people on "paleo diets" or "all natural diets" etc. before. The problem is, our fellow Americans grew up scarfing down massive amounts of sugar and starch. Not to mention Mickey D's, Taco Bell and other corporate fast-food "products". And the result: the most obese, unhe...

MIT students don't understand the value and taste of freshly milled whole wheat flour. No wonder the world is messed up
Being on the autism spectrum, alternative foods are one of my special interests. https://old.reddit.com/r/mit/comments/t2qwnz/mit_should_offer_bread_from_this_company_one/ It should have been obvious to begin with, because all fresh food is more nutritious. Whole wheat flour decays much slower than ...

Re: Why does wikipedia hate socks so much?
Nowadays, the admins seem more interested in fighting sockpuppetry than in adequately revising articles. Most admins aren't interested in critical debate or discussion, but in flaunting their power. There are less than 500 active admins, and at least 100,000 active users on Wikipedia, indicating a g...

Re: My Experience with Wikipedia's Autism Politics - lots of Personal Attacks
You're welcome. I actually tried to keep editing as an IP after being blocked and somehow, they found out and I was tired of being followed. I also don't like how they collect your technical information without consent. Also, they keep way too many permanent records of users. Maybe I will ask Koavf....

My Experience with Wikipedia's Autism Politics - lots of Personal Attacks
Hello, My name is Yuval Levental. I am currently working in computer vision programming, and am on the autism spectrum. On Wikipedia, I am Yleventa2, and formerly Ylevental. I've all but given up on Wikipedia at this point. My views on autism: There are some highly gifted autistic individuals, but m...
