Wikipedia should not consider
The Daily Dot to be a reliable source. Only
one staff writer is interested in ED.ch, and nearly all of the other stories she has done so far are lightweight and meme-infested. When she emailed me for her
second ED.ch article, I smelled a set-up and did not respond.
It was a mistake for me to answer her questions for that
first ED.ch article. She repeated a quote about me from Jimbo that is nearly six years old. Using that old defamatory quote was probably a back-handed attempt to get Wikipedia's approval. All it proves is that Jimbo misrepresented his association with me, because to this day I have never, ever had a conversation with him. And the comments under her second article include a "well done" from Garrett, a "good read" from Edgeworth E. Euler, and a "very informative" from Zaiger — the three top sysops on ED.ch.
This reporter has
participated on ED.ch's IRC channel. Her comments there are different from the sort of comments I'd expect from a professional reporter.
So now there's a tin-foil hat on that picture of someone who is not me, that accompanies the ED.ch article about me. I appeal to any and all Wikipedia editors to delete my name from Wikipedia's article on Encyclopedia Dramatica. In fact, I think that entire article should be put up for deletion. The old ED is history, and the new ED is even more irresponsible than the old ED. Both are best forgotten.
