Damn, how many "Allegations of Apartheid" articles are there on that crazy-ass site, anyway?
Apparently this guy,
User:Lothar_of_the_Hill_People, who may or may not have once been a member of
Lothar_and_the_Hand_People, has been doing a lot of work on some of these articles, including trying to get a few of them deleted, like
Allegations_of_French_Apartheid (which he tried to move to "Social Exclusion in France," but was reverted by Jayjg),
Allegations_of_Brazilian_Apartheid, and
Allegations_of_Saudi_Arabian_Apartheid.
I had no idea! I mean, now that I've seen what's going on, I think I see the game Jayjg is playing - he's actually trying to ensure that
as many of these articles exist as possible, so as to
dilute the impact of the article he probably really, really, really wants to get rid of:
Allegations_of_Israeli_Apartheid, which to his great chagrin keeps surviving various AfD attempts.
I'm guessing that he figures that if every country in the world has an "Allegations of Apartheid" article, then anyone looking at the Israeli one will think, "
baaah, that's no big deal, every country has one"? Or maybe he figures that the longer this goes on, the more ridiculous it will all look (and let's face it, it does look pretty ridiculous), and the greater the chance that he can get
the entire class of articles deleted all at once....?
Why is this not reported in the media? This should be treated as a scandal, in my opinion, or at least a VERY good example of Wikipedia gamesmanship potentially causing serious distortions in the historical record.
