This is the entirety of the Wikipedia "Electric knife" article.
QUOTE(Wikipedia "Electric Knife" @ 12/10/07) An electric knife or electric carving knife is an electrical kitchen device used for slicing hard-to-slice foods. The advantage of an electric knife is less physical effort is required and it is easier to make cleaner slices. The device consists of two serrated blades that are clipped together. When the appliance is switched on the blades continuously move sideways to provide the sawing action. They are also sometimes used for other purposes, such as shaping polyurethane foam rubber to make hip and buttock padding. Electric knives are either corded or cordless. Make sure you follow the link for "hip and buttock padding". Donors, are you listening? |

I think it's hilarious that now we're days later and they're still fighting to keep the article exactly the way it was, and in addition the Transvamp Publications book has been added as the sole reference. You can be sure by this point that hundreds of people from the Wikipedia community have looked at it, but they can't fix it because they're all afraid of crossing an admin.
This goes to prove that Wikipedia is not self-correcting as advertised. We have a clear case of article quality starting bad, and then deteriorating even after members of the community became aware of it. |

This goes to prove that Wikipedia is not self-correcting as advertised. We have a clear case of article quality starting bad, and then deteriorating even after members of the community became aware of it. Indeed, Emperor. This is an excellent case in point: QUOTE == "Source" being used to spam Wikipedia == I am very uncomfortable with the so-called "source" that is being used to bolster the notion that electric knives are commonly used by transvestites to shape polyurethane foam to make their asses and hips look more womanly. The [http://www.transvamp.com/books/ site] where these non-ISBN books are sold is clearly just a marketing effort -- where else would we see individual titles lumped together into a bundled discount like that? This reference is making a mockery of Wikipedia. I'll give it a couple of days for others to try to make this into a serious article, but if that doesn't happen, I have little choice but to either improve the article or to make a mockery of it by finding WP:RS's to support all kinds of fascinating claims about electric knives. Don't make me do the latter. -- [[User:ZD Netman|ZD Netman]] ([[User talk:ZD Netman|talk]]) 05:16, 13 December 2007 (UTC) DELETED by the college sophomore Admin:Krimpet, with comment "buh-bye". This is the sort of petty conflict that Wikipediots need to get in check, and fast. They are merely nurturing a whole new generation of angry vandals interested only in making them look even more stupid. Krimpet could be my next "JzG" or "Durova" project. Are you sure you want that, Krimpet? Greg |

Would it be agreed that a particular user (AliceJMarkham) has demonstrated a sort of conflict of interest or POV-pushing (based on his/her editing history), to incorporate the use of the electric knife as a device to shape hip and buttock padding, in a short article in Wikipedia?
Yet, User:ZD Netman is indefinitely blocked, and User:AliceJMarkham continues to edit transvestite POV into articles as dispersed as "electric knife". If it weren't the Wikipedia we know and love, an outside observer would think it's a spoof of an encyclopedia! Greg |
