This is the entirety of the Wikipedia "Electric knife" article.



Make sure you follow the link for "hip and buttock padding". Donors, are you listening?

Hey, ya learn something useful on WP every day! Well, this isn't useful to me, personally, but hey! I'm sure that it's useful to some people.

I sort of like the idea that this information is on the article for "Electric knife". Who would have thought?? I mean, you can't make this stuff up, can you?

Keep up the good work, WP?

Jesus! Thanks for the laugh first thing in the morning, Emperor.

What's all this hustle and bustle?

Oh la la! The reverter got reverted by the POV pusher.

Apparently, this is highly relevant information to the topic of electric knives...

Oh my, is that an edit war I smell??

Donor's Blurb: Wikipedia's got back.

i like....BIG WIKIBUTTS...and i cannot lie....you WR brothers cant deny...

and for the Jz Master G's in da house:

...and for you heavy metal bass players in the house, just pull a derek smalls & stuff a cucumber down your trousers...Led Zep rocked london last night for the first time in 30 yrs so treat your pants to a big pickle enhancement...

Bwah! No, but look at the next edit!

Dude, that's priceless! Come to WR, ZD Netman, and you will be honored as one of us.

Krimpet read this topic then went and wiped it

Sheez, and it was sourced and everything!

(I had a PM from a source who prefers to remain anonymous about this....I wonder if it was because of those blood stains in his bedroom??)

Hey, now the "hip and buttocks" business is back, but this time there's a reference :



Hmm, I'm sure that all of us probably have many fine books in our libraries published by TransVamp Publications, so this is obvious a WP:RS, right?

It seems to me that dismembering one's spouse is as relevant to the article as this is....Oh, yes, I forgot :

Wikipedia is not censored!

Well, that explains everything!

Somebody is demonstrating how to use an electric knife to slice up those turkeys.

Don't forget how he whitewashed his User Talk page.

So, now the electric knife page has no external reference link, lush descriptions of a fairly peculiar usage for an electric knife, a cited book "source" that doesn't even have an ISBN number, and a Wikipediot who replaces constructive criticism with smiley faces.

Jimbo's really got his hippy-trippy, wikilove robots fully programmed, doesn't he?

It's too bad it all can't stay because the electric knife article has everything: power tools, buttock padding, murder, and trannies. We could write an episode of Nip/Tuck with this stuff.

"continuously move sideways"

Is that why you can never find the damn thing after you've used it? ...and I've never found a chicken particularly "hard to slice". Indeed, the only useful factual information in that article is the hip and buttock padding.

Thank goodness for the many eyes of Wikipedia ensuring wrong information will soon be deleted.

I think electric knives are like ArbCom, sounds useful, but once you've tried it, count your fingers carefully - and what a racket that goes with it!

They're quite popular in Germany.

Agreed that it's overkill to electrically slice a chicken, but let me tell you -- a turkey's succulence is vastly improved by cutting wafer-thin slices using an electric carving knife. Many thanks to my brother-in-law for toting his electric knife over to our house on Thanksgiving Day. It was a stupendous experience, and I myself was an "electric doubter" prior to that day.



The external link that was destroyed by Krimpet's meddling actually contained a nice bit of information about the pros and cons (and care of) electric knives. I'm still undecided on whether the information about using these knives to partition corpses was helpful to the encyclopedia, but it was certainly as helpful as or more helpful than the business about hip and buttock padding.

I mean, if we're going to talk about using the knives in these unusual fashions, why not get 'em all in there? There's apparently an application in the varied fields of foam wedding cake models, chicken 'n fruit pinwheels, sawing off dead foot tissue, and oatmeal carmelitas -- to name just a few!

I thought Wikipedia is supposed to be the "sum of human knowledge", isn't it?

It's more like a "Jimbo's crazy collection of transgender and transvestism nuggets o' knowledge".

Krimpet really should receive a 24-hour block, since he's clearly disrupting the encyclopedia project with his WP:OR.

Greg

The sight of my 85 year old father wielding one made me a non-believer for evermore

So, how would one classify Krimpet, based on this outcome?

Here, we have a clear, well-defined example of a Wikipedia article being made decidedly worse by an admin, and then a critic trying to improve the article is reverted, then indefinitely blocked (for "vandalism").

If User:ZD Netman's contributions are defined as vandalism, then I emphatically support "vandalizing" Wikipedia.

Krimpet needs to go. Definitely doesn't know two whits about writing a reputable encyclopedia. Knows far too much about playing the anti-WR game. He needs to go.

Greg

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.

Indeed, Emperor. This is an excellent case in point:



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?

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

She's done some solid vandal-fighting work on Genderfuck.

more evidence that WP UK admins were all recruited by Gerard & Harem during their weekly Rocky Horror Picture Show outings

Finally, the real reason for the Runcorn desysop.

Well, it seems that TransVamp is not a WP:RS , so now we have NASA and a costuming book (with an ISBN number, though) as references, although the trannie angle seems to have been left by the wayside for the moment...

I liked this article much better with the murder and trannie business intact...

Rofl.

I never thought about what an obvious association that was.

But you know none of the teenagers and 20 somethings will "get" that.

A recent thread where I posted my now-infamous image of a "troll-roasted turkey" led me to go back into my photo archives from that eventful day of feasting, and look what I found!

This snapshot brings it all together:

Electric knife (not to be used to shape hip-and-buttock padding)!

ED-verified "Cheeto-colored beaver teeth"!

Troll-roasted turkey!



If you can't make fun of yourself, who can you make fun of?

Greg

All that in one picture!

Wait, that's _your_ turkey?

It seems to have been sacrificed - I wonder if the user who made that appreciates the irony

You've gotta love this article:

Electric Knife



"Dick Rubbins" heh heh

12 days and counting.

Did not Tycho Brahe (T-H-L-K-D) have such a nose some 400 years ago?

Either nobody reads, or people don't bother to edit, even if AliceJMarkham disappeared with all of her hip-and-buttock paddings.
