The 2010 Wikipedia Review "WP:DICK of Distinction", Nominations close Sunday night! Options

[Herschelkrustofsky]

The annual pageant is a hallowed tradition here at the Review (new members, read this for some background.) Although traditionally, to compete for the grand WP:DICK of Distinction prize, the contestant must be an active admin, we at the Program and Catering Committee have been mulling this over on our sooper-sekrit P&C-L mailing list, and we would like to propose that admins defrocked over the past year should be eligible. First of all, the fact that they were defrocked may mean that they did something Notable. But mainly, we want to put forward the long-overdue nomination of Wild Bill Connolley for this award.

Here are the categories for nomination:

WP:DICK of Distinction -- for all-around rottenness by an admin

The Tag-Team Event

Miss Incongeniality

and for the good guys...

the Straight Shooter award for honest admins

and the Cojones de latón, for the non-admin who has distinguished himself in combat with the cabal

[RDH(Ghost In The Machine)]

Someone has to nominate Davy Geroid for DoD again, because, well it has to be done. Though he might be more of a cinch for Miss Incongeniality. Besides the already nominated climate doc, Ft2, Jossi and Sammy Blackletter should serve as dishonorable mentions.

I also nominate Misters J. Van B and K. Lokshin for straight shooters.

For Cojones de latón I second Cla's nomination.

Gerard's already in the Dick Emeritus stage. Re-awarding is just redundant and boring, like giving Meryl Streep an Oscar every year. Unless Gerard wins the WP Comeback from Dickhood of the Year award (to then get requalified for recognition of distinctive dickishness) after doing penance, good deeds (something Thatcher has been working diligently on for the last couple of years since the Cabal Fall), apologising to Utah, Cla68, and having a personality transplant, there's not much point in pointing it out.

Another Dick idea.....there's a very different sort of dickishness found in the American variety of Wikidicks (think Mongo - loud, unimaginative bullies) than found in English Wikidicks (Gerard archetype for the Overly detached, Jzg for the full-on English Nutter). If too many distinctive Dicks (resisting quoting Reservoir Dogs here) are to be found on the WP, maybe subcategories by nationality or age group are in order.

Other subcategories:

Passive-aggressive
NPD (narcissism)
OCD (article/topic watchdogs, overuse of trivial detail)

I think it is risky to over-generalize. For example, Wild Bill Connelley, from the U.K., strikes me as having a MONGO-like style.

Other subcategories:

Passive-aggressive

I think Will Beback pretty much owns that one.

[A Horse With No Name]

OK, here's a corrected running tally of nominations:

Typos with The undertow (lower case "u") and Dr. Blofeld (the "d" got disconnected from the rest of his name) in your list, HK.

And don't forget A Nobody for the Cojones prize, too! If we can't get the full ARS in, I would be happy with AN alone.

Also for Straight Shooter: Jake Wartenberg took a lot of heat for the closing of the AfD on the Shankbone bio article. I believe that he deserves praise for not buckling to the pressure on that one.
