I'm needling this thread for keeping track of developments on the Jayjg «WILL You BE Able To Watch My BACK» front.

I'd still like to know what he's got on his back that makes it so worth watching. Is he getting a tattoo? I'd have to assume it's not a flogging of some kind.

Here's the raw source view of the Gmane copy, but I'm not on the list, so I don't know if this is all.

Ha ha ha ha!

I'll just add that the fact he needs "backup" from a bannable offense, canvassing, shows that whatever his position is in this case is crap and likely in violation of other policies.

Has anyone called bullshit on Wikipedia yet?

What on earth? Why are his contributions out of order?

Huh, it was actually displaying out of order for me, as in 3:10 to 3:22 to 3:10. But now it's not. Weird!

I wonder what the significance of his oddball bursts of editing are. Probably just trying to garner attention, since people were ignoring his irrelevant role.

Let's see, now, based Jayjg's admission that the message was erroneously sent to the mailing list, but was instead intended for a select group of recipients (did anyone tell Jimbo about this email list, or was it one of those secret ones that he doesn't know anything about?), how does it fare when considered according to Wikipedia's Canvassing Guideline?

Someone conveniently made a table there of different aspects to consider and what would make an action tend to be "disruptive canvassing" as opposed to a "friendly notice."

So, Scale: limited is friendly; massive is disruptive. I'd say he gets "friendly" on that, although see below regarding intent versus action.
Message: neutral is friendly; biased is disruptive. Lean toward "disruptive," because he stated his editing intent and asked for support rather than just asking for people to see what they think.
Audience: nonpartisan is friendly; partisan is disruptive. Ah, oops! The term given for this is, "Votestacking."
Transparency: open is friendly; secret is disruptive. Well, do we judge intent or action? If action, then it was just a friendly open reminder to the whole mailing list; if intent, the term given is "Stealth Canvassing."

So what comes next? The, "Ha ha! I wasn't thinking; isolated instance; won't ever happen again!" position, or the "The Cossacks are practically at my door, and of course I have to do do all I can to defend (mainstream) Judaism, and of course I must do it in secret!" defense? Or will we just see "doc" get banned, and insta-ban for anyone else who ever mentions the matter again.

That got me at first, but it's just because he has a bot posting his edits at the same time each day. If you want to see weird edits check out the first two edits in his edit history 1., 2..

Something else to think about... His stated intent to edit the article "tonight" would break from his odd editing pattern of the past few days.

Were these edits going to be made with another account?

After looking at the diff involved, I don't necessarily disagree with Jayjg about the problematic nature of the edit, doing fairly massive removals of critical stuff from the article with a very misleading edit summary. It's just his method of combatting it, by canvassing "privately" (except when he slips up and posts it to a public list) among his friends so they "have his back" when he reverts, that's problematic.
