Some of the more hilarious rhetoric, most but not all in the pot-kettle department WMC - "my attention was drawn to CF"
(we used to call it stalking) - admits to protecting a page version for amusement value
- "A often seemed confused about the terms of the ban"
(that would be "an indeterminate period of approximately a month" which "remains, to be reviewed in approximately another month" )
Enric Naval - "Abd believes that he knows better than other users"
(of course, it's Enric itself who knows best) - "Abd says that hoaxes should not be deleted, and hoaxers tolerated"
(Abd said that hoaxes should be blanked by any user instead of deleted by admins) - "Abd assumes the existance of bad-faith cabals"
(I wonder where he gets that idea from?) - "Abd performs experiments with democracy"
(outrageous) - "Abd sees no problem at all with his very long posts"
(subheading 25 out of 27 total in Enric's evidence)
Mathsci - "Abd has made unfounded statements about William M. Connolley" / "WMC is part of some covert off-wiki conspiracy." / "Since this case began he has written that WMC has been "coddling" me."
(Such as by blocking people who annoy Mathsci, whom WMC meets for drinks IRL) - "Abd claims to have scientific expertise"
(Mathsci claims to be a scientist but his expertise is in pure mathematics) - "Abd appears to be supported by a small tag team"
(Mathsci's being a little larger) - "My brief involvement on Talk:Cold fusion has been minimal and constructive"
(16 edits, including "Abd's contributions here seem to be extremely skewed." "In view of his poor namespace editing record, my advice to Abd is to attempt to edit a non-controversial article on science in order to get more experience in handling scientific sourcing in a completely neutral context. That might be a valuable eye-opener." "Abd is not the person to lead discussions here.")

Possibly also theoretical physics - there was a Seminaire Bourbaki on my work in the 1990s. What about the paper of Eric Sheldon that started my comments? Feel free to go on picking cherries ... bravo ! (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/rolleyes.gif) I should also add that I forgot William's birthday on April 6. If he were alive today, Anthony Blunt would probably have given me a good spanking for that. (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/scream.gif) This post has been edited by Mathsci: |

Mathsci, do you think that William M. Connolley is an exemplary admin?
Not particularly: he clearly has his own style. I think that MastCell and Alison are or were exemplary admins. They both have regrettably suffered from varying degrees of burn-out. Either of them would have got my vote for ArbCom last time round had they stood. I have no complaints at all about Casliber or Newyorkbrad, who again seem exemplary. I also admire both Dbachmann and Slrubenstein, even though they're often diametrically opposed and both have strong personalities. No different from the real world really.

Well one wildy protesting sock - Arkady Renkov - has just had his posts removed from this ArbCom case and been indef blocked. It'll be interesting to see who his puppetmaster is. Any ideas who it might be Grep? (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/banned.gif) This post has been edited by Mathsci: |

(IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/scream.gif) Ah, but Anthony Blunt is one of SlimVirgin's ego ideals, and I'm sure she would be happy to oblige you. Can I bring a friend along?

And what's more the team involves the acting clerk Hersfold. We already made a wax doll of Grep in the early hours of the morning and are taking turns with pins. Some are more impatient than others. I'm not quite sure how accurate the effigy was - two eyes or one, we couldn't quite decide. |

(IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/tongue.gif) Heh, didn´t they tell you when you joined? This is the Mos Eisley Cantina. One eye. Oh, and a late welcome to the Review. You are giving Obesity competition here! (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/biggrin.gif) |

Finding it in VO (i.e. English) could be a problem. Having seen Woody Allen's Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy dubbed into French I have learnt to be careful. On the other hand I might learn the French for "git". I don't even know what it is in US English, although I could easily provide a string of examples.

(IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/biggrin.gif) Going totally off-topic here (Sorry, Somey!) ..but living in a tiny little non-English-speaking country (like I do) has its advantages: we never dub movies..with the possible exception of children-movies (read:Disney). And nobody has ever wanted to see films dubbed. What, miss a language-lesson! Eh, but what is "git"? (They didn´t teach me that!) |
