Unless you have something remotely constructive to say please f--- off. It's about time someone said this.
I have something "remotely constructive" to say. If you bothered to read what I wrote:
1. This teapot-based tempest is little more than yet another melodrama stirred by a relative handful of people who inevitably turn up when the slightest bit of mayhem is in the air.
Translation into English: Why does anyone care what these perennial ANI troublemakers are up to? It is always the same crap with them, only the names of the aggrieved parties change. I don't even pay attention to that page anymore unless somewhere here calls it up.
And speaking of perennial idiots, why is Ironholds sticking his nose into this?:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=3121982092. The only problem with Benji is that he got caught and that I know many people who have written autobiographical articles that remain online.
Translation into English: this is a non-issue. There is a huge list, which I posted earlier, of Wikipedia editors who have articles about themselves online. And for those who don't identify themselves, it is extremely easy to get away with writing autobiographical articles. This circles back to perennial arguments on the lack of BLP enforcement.
3. Why is Petey so interested in Benji?
Translation into English: I am genuinely surprised that you are devoting so much time and energy to a situation that is of very little (if any) value to how Wikipedia functions. And, Petey, why are you agitated over the policy rulings of a web site that does not want your participation? Or, to paraphrase Arbcom's ruling on the nature of your Wikipedia contributions: since you have nothing remotely constructive to say, please f--- off.
