So go ahead with the JzG RFC already, and do what should have been done a long time ago. Terminate his admin privvies with extreme prejudice and let him free his mind of his WP burden and retire in peace for once and for all with a nice indef block. This dossier couldn't be more clear that a loose cannon has had the run of the place and turned his and many others' little corners of WP into a toxic superfund site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Cla68/RfC/SandboxGo ahead, make Jimbo's day. Per his email to "Nathan", Jimbo does have a soopersekret silent problem with it too. Consider it his blessing to do what you must for the lovefest procession that is Wikipedia. Be bold.

QUOTE(Viridae @ Tue 26th February 2008, 2:06am) We can afford to give it a few days and if he continues to edit as he is now then the RfC will be listed. There is no point in rushing it through and have him cry that he couldnt defend himself because he was away. If you want this reolved it has to be resolved properly.
No, you should post it. JzG is always in the process of retiring or being otherwise unavailable, yet somehow manages to participate enough to fill up this RfC. I don't know why the Crutfbane section was removed… http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=193257758…it shows that JzG violates the very rule he pushed so hard for ArbCom to impose upon a resistant community: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_tal...ckpuppet_policy(thanks to Newyorkbrad for initiating this discussion) Perhaps it was feared that this quote… QUOTE Recent events indicate that I am emotionally far less stable than I thought. I will probably use my trusty sockpuppet for a while. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=190365471…would remind us of the sympathy we're supposed to feel for JzG, and undermine the RfC? But most of us at WR (it seems) do feel some sympathy for Guy. He obviously is unstable, and not only due to recent events (though that couldn't have helped.) It's not that he's a bad person - he isn't - or that he means badly - he doesn't - but that he no longer has any business operating as an administrator on Wikipedia. Maybe it should be written into WP:SOCK, or an amendment to that effect added to ArbCom's horrible sentence three? QUOTE "Sockpuppet accounts are not to be used in discussions internal to the project, such as policy debates, unless the sockmaster is emotionally unstable." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Req...on#Sockpuppetry And he was using it long before his recent loss. If he's that unstable, he should keep away from the project…just as he keeps saying he's going to do ("retired".) It's not that Guy should be punished or condemned. He should be graciously thanked for his years of hard work, awarded a barnstar and removed for the good of the project. This post has been edited by Proabivouac:

oh, almost forgot. My first "exposure" to Cannes was that was a-place-in-France-where-the-topless-ladies-dance...on the beach. Then I got past the age of 8 and learned it was a film festival mecca, among other arts. "Per contributions" and the IP Exposer Tool that Kohser used, I'd say JzG is there for the toplessness. You go, guy!. May a dozen Bratwurst Stuffed German Speedos block your view and force you back on to Bomis.com where you're more comfortable. Whether Bomis means "Boobs in volume" or not, I can't say. My latin is rusty.

QUOTE(Piperdown @ Mon 25th February 2008, 6:16pm) you're being way too nice to someone who wouldn't do the same for you. Fwiw. Good luck with the RFC, there's not been many more straightforward cases like this, I would believe.
Exactly, that's why it is so important to go by the book, don't wanna blow a slam dunk like this on a technicality. If he keeps editing then it's clear that it is good to go.

He didn't post to the RFAR under a different name, he just forgot to switch logins. There was no "Evidence presented by Cruftbane", there was no indication (other than to someone who read the history) that it was anyone other than JzG, and there was no lack of indication that it was JzG. There's plenty of actual material; there's no need to muddy the waters with such an easily-attacked argument. If that _were_ present in the RFC, his supporters would focus on it as an example of how we're "grasping at straws" QUOTE(Viridae @ Tue 26th February 2008, 3:20am) Yes you are probobly right, but it doesn't cost us much/anything to hold off from posting it till he gets back from this trip. Its not going to go away, no matter how much JzG wishes it would. Cla68 is a man of integrity.
Too long with no activity and it will be deleted under the bogus "G10: no-accountability zone" rule for evidence pages. Taking bets on who pushes the button. This post has been edited by Random832:

I don't think that'll happen (and if it does, I'll be the first to unpush it). I'm still digging up diffs from the past 12 months, and have yet to trawl wikien-l properly, so any delay just offers opportunity to further improve and refine things. FWIW, there is already more than sufficient to make the case. Perhaps a more appropriate, kindly approach, is to simply note that there are other offences to be taken into account, and assuming that some sort of sanction is proposed, that those are wiped clean at the same time. One of WPs failings is an elephantine memory for past sins, and the danger is that too thorough a job will just fail under the appearance of being a vendetta rather than thoroughness. In fact, I would suggest a major pruning on the main page, with the detail accessible in an appendix of some sort, it would look far less vindictive. It is also worth being clear as to why this is being done. WP has a duty of care to its participants (and I see that as affecting both Guy and his targets). If WP was UK based they might get into some legal difficulties, especially with admins, as volunteers can fall under employment law. There seems to be strong consensus here that Guy needs to take an enforced break both to protect his targets and to protect himself. His friends do him a dis-service by encouraging him to believe that he is acting appropriately - s bit of cruel to be kind would be appropriate.

No, that's when he slipped up and broadcast it. He'd been participating in "discussions internal to the project, such as policy debates" long before this, giving no indication that he's JzG (WP:CSD is policy): http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=164691591http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=164692923http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=164698270and innumerable deletion debates, which while not policy pages, are certainly "discussions internal to the project." http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...arget=CruftbaneHis goal was to avoid scrutiny or trolling - choose your term, in this context they mean the same thing - he wanted to be able to edit without people knowing that he's JzG. Which, in itself, I find completely understandable…except that's a consideration he's made a point of principle to deny others, to the point of initiating an arbitration case to change the rules so that others can't do exactly what he himself was doing with Cruftbane.
