Elonka’s perennial attack farm, harmlessly entitled “Work1”, has been recreated:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Elonka/Work1

At first glance, it seems innocuous, compared to previous (deleted) versions, which were diff-ridden polemics against other editors:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...er:Elonka/Work1

However, upon inspection, these articles listed here are not those which Elonka has worked on, but those to which her target-du-jour, PHG…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:PHG
…has contributed. In the past, the creation of this page has preceded (and predicted) coordinated multi-administrator actions against their targets, including blatantly false charges such as those levied against Matt57 (sockpuppetry, privacy violations, harassment):
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...age=User:Matt57

With several powerful administrators such as bureaucrat (and chair of the meditation committee) WJBscribe in Elonka’s pocket…

http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=15343
…it’s probable that bad things will happen to PHG’s account soon.

PHG’s last (and only) block was for “canvassing” against Elonka’s RfA…
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...k&page=User:PHG
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Adm...ock_of_User:PHG
…an ironic charge, given Elonka’s history of canvassing every vote, even soliciting her coworkers to support her rise to power and promote her Dunin family spam (not just vote-stacking, but evading COI through proxying/meatpuppetry):

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...&oldid=81686581
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=153457016

Just as ironic - well, breathtakingly hypocritical - is WJBscribe’s warning to PHG…

We've had this discussion before I believe ([[User:PHG/Elonka]]). It is not an acceptable use of userspace to provide a one sided critique of other editors.

No one can deny that she's brilliant and accomplished, nor is she a bad contributor per se. The trouble is that she's aggressive, sneaky and dishonest, she approaches Wikipedia as a battleground (or, in her own words, as "a political game,,") she curates a short but very serious enemies list, she's an inveterate meatpuppeteer, and she's corrupted significant elements of the leadership.

We're watching an evil genius at work. Touch a pinky to the corner of your mouth like Mike Myers, and enjoy the unfolding cryptodrama.

It sounds like she has a bright future ahead of her at the project. She's learned from the masters.

I think that's spelled either «curares» or «curaries».

Try to be less cryptic, and you won't draw her attention.

She's redeleted it, probably after having been informed of this thread:
