The Simple Wikipedia is about 50 times smaller than English Wikipedia, but the unprofessional behavior of the editors, the policies, and the way the policies are enforced are idiotic. Most editors there are Western European kids who have nothing to do. The Wikipedia lovers abound there, people who are extremely opposed to changes in Wikipedia, administrators who are hasty to use the tools when not completely informed about a situation, and people who are just immature.
The people there worship Wikipedia. Most of them hardly ever question policy, they instead blindly follow it as if it's dogma. The ones that frequently appear demonstrate their lack of seriousness and consideration for the real-life consequences of Wikipedia, by treating a collaborative website of its nature as a game, competitions like the WikiCup being obsessed over. Also see how the Simple Wikipedians are objecting so highly to flagged revisions, though they seem to provide no rational argument against it. They all just act like a bunch of inconsiderate children that have been indoctrinated into Wikipedia at a young age. I have nothing against children, though they should learn about the consequences of allowing Wikipedia biographies to remain so unmonitored, with such a small amount of regulation before they go spouting "All for the Wiki" propaganda. I was browsing the Christopher Columbus article and I saw something about him reaching Pelham, New York instead of India (when he actually came to a Bahamian island). It was there for three months. What if that was a biography being vandalized with plausible, but false, information? I will continue... |

Sorry, but I do not crave power Of course. Ten failed attempts at power is not, repeat not, a craving. Twelve, maybe. Fifteen, tops. Those guys and their accusations, eh? QUOTE and I am not a "child". I will have you know that I am over 18 years old. Harrumph! Harrumph!!! Dog years? Let's face it, mate. Simple Wikipedia is not for you. Too complicated, and you're about as welcome there as the proverbial fart in a spacesuit. Give it up, eh?! |

"Bottled Spider" - how about you go back in your bottle and put the lid on so no one can hear you, because no one gives a fuck what you think? What do you know about the project anyway? Very little by the sound of it. Please crawl back under the rock from where you came from, thx. This whole thread is hilarious. Why all the whining about a project you obviously all hate? Have you not got better ways to spend your lives, other than bitching about people and their hobbies? Oh... didn't think so. Sorry, but I do not crave power and I am not a "child".

Just carry on on Simple and ignore the trolls here. Some people here have legitimate criticisism, others don't. You've found the ones that don't. |
