She http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=21260, didn't she?
I remember thinking at the time, after all the POV editing, canvassing, team-reverting, COI, abusive blocking, link-redacting, dramamongering over critics, and refusing to block herself indefinitely for her ongoing WP:USERNAME violation, they give her a 6-month vacation for unblocking Giano.
Still, I'm sure she's really nice if you meet her in person!

Whatever. I know my interaction with her, you clearly not.

The antics of SlimVirgin are hardly a good reason to quit Wikipedia. Better to quit because the whole place is a shambolic unsatisfactory waste of time that is having a negative impact on you -- and society at large.
In fact, the two people who should quit first are Slim and Giano, but they refuse to http://wikipediareview.com/blog/20080121/2007-at-the-review-the-unvarnished-truth-the-red-pill/.

Wikipedia is a mess because of people like Slimvigin and JayJG and the other POV pushers, and the complete incapability of the community to reign them in. However, there are a lot of niches where you can work in piece, and were the general quality is actually pretty decent.

And if you put a clothespin on your nose, you won't hardly notice the smell of death all around you.

How long before she loses them again? Any guesses?

She hasn't used them regularly in a long, long time. She mostly does an admin action when she happens to find a need for it. Based on previous patterns, I'd give her between two weeks to a month before she does anything. I'll place my bet on it being an image deletion or undeletion.

Nevertheless, she is pre-disposed to generating drama and wanting to be the centre of attention. I suspect that at some point this part of her personality will drive her to deliberately do something "controversial" with her admin tools - not unlike her Giano unblock - which will allow her to put herself forward as some sort of victim/martyr.

I know, I used to work over there in such niches. However, you do not appear to understand that once a body ingests poison, it is only a matter of time before each and every organ will feel the effects.

I do feel that. But I am hoping that of sufficient part are healthy, maybe the rest will follow.

Give it up, Cedric, The Wikipedia Review is currently swept up in the High Hilarities of the Eternally Moveable BAHHAFGIDYT* Festival, and may be hung over for who knows how long.

* But Adolf Hitler Had A Few Good Ideas, Don't You Think

Well, that would make a good Pee-dia topic if it does not already exist ... List of Adolf Hitler's Good Ideas.
Its kind of on a par with ... List of Slimvirgin's Compassionate Gestures.
How long would you give its existence? About as long as a 'gay Jewish gypsy pacifist who had converted to Catholicism' in Dachau, probably.
I suppose I could claim a NPOV defence, or at the very least go for a merge into the main topic. Reliable sources should not be difficult. Anyone up for some sport?

That is, of course, just my subtle way of poking fun at a whole slew of Normative Fallacies that have long been rampant in Wikiputia, and even more lately rear their ugly heads in our own good 'hood.
By the way, in case you were wondering — and I know you were — the Imbibage du Jour of the BAHHAFGIDYT Festival is sewage laced with a trace of fine wine.

Hitler committed suicide, didn't he? That was a good idea.

No surprise there......she started "rehabilitating" herself http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=24313.
The sun will rise and set, the wind will blow, and SV will do crazy shit.
See how straightforward that is?

The desysopping never happened. It was just another malicious rumor spread by the WR.

Is was all a just dream, Booby.
As always, there's a whole different set of rules for the UPyours Classes.
Just let an ordinary Wikipeon delete any kind of demerit tag from his talk page — for instance, the merest note of chastisement from this or that Oaficious Adminion — and see what happens.

Good old Linda. Back on Wikipedia for five seconds and already rewriting history.
Yay Wikipedia!
