I believe this violates the tenet of the policy which states: "Racial, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ageist, religious, <b>political</b>, ethnic, national, sexual, or other epithets (such as against people with disabilities) directed against another contributor, or against a group of contributors." When I brought this up with you, you said I was falsely accusing you of violating <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPA">WP:NPA</a>. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AOcean_Grove%2C_New_Jersey&diff=588325561&oldid=588320525">[5]</a> You said, "The quote was about "epithets", and "conservative" is not an epithet, it's their preferred term." First of all, "their" preferred term? What about my preferred term? Am I an individual, or just part of a mysterious "their" that you've lumped me in with? Second, I think "cloud" is what you're using as an epithet, more than conservative. What do you mean by "cloud?" It sounds like you mean some sort of menacing group of people hovering over Wikipedia in some unsavory way. As <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPA">WP:NPA</a> states many times, this policy is subjective. If someone is accused of making a personal attack, it should be taken seriously. Why are you claiming I am "falsely accusing" you? Do you have a reason for thinking that? The fact is, I <i>believe</i> that you've made a personal attack. Perhaps that was not your intent. But the fact that your word choice could cause someone to feel that they've been a victim of personal attack might cause you to reflect on your language. Please don't refer to me as being part of any kind of "cloud" in the future. <a href="/wiki/User:Safehaven86" title="User:Safehaven86">Safehaven86</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Safehaven86" title="User talk:Safehaven86">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:MilesMoney#c-Safehaven86-2013-12-30T06:59:00.000Z-Conservative_cloud" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">06:59, 30 December 2013 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Safehaven86-2013-12-30T06:59:00.000Z-Conservative_cloud"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Safehaven86-2013-12-30T06:59:00.000Z-Conservative_cloud"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-MilesMoney-2013-12-30T07:29:00.000Z-Safehaven86-2013-12-30T06:59:00.000Z"></span>On ANI, Mangoe said: <dl><dd>Every time I go to look at this material, it's the same cloud of conservative defenders.</dd></dl></dd> <dd>Mangoe coined it, but it stuck because it's fitting.

You blend by acting like them: you were less than honest about the role of OCGMA, you removed an easily sourced quote for lack of sourcing, and you've been whittling down material that some people would consider embarrassing. If you don't want to be associated with the cloud, that's entirely up to you.

I wasn't aware that she was associated with the Tea Party movement; it has never appeared in the body of the article, and the category would be questionable even if it hadn't been repurposed. If she is considered <i>part of</i> (not associated with) the TPm, then the latter revert was of an improper edit, but neither the blocked anon nor you have requested or received an exemption. I'll stay out of this, now, except to continue to revert the blocked anon. — <a href="/wiki/User:Arthur_Rubin" title="User:Arthur Rubin">Arthur Rubin</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Arthur_Rubin" title="User talk:Arthur Rubin">(talk)</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:MilesMoney#c-Arthur_Rubin-2013-12-30T17:19:00.000Z-71.23.178.214-2013-12-30T15:44:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:19, 30 December 2013 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Arthur_Rubin-2013-12-30T17:19:00.000Z-71.23.178.214-2013-12-30T15:44:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Arthur_Rubin-2013-12-30T17:19:00.000Z-71.23.178.214-2013-12-30T15:44:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-MilesMoney-2013-12-31T02:58:00.000Z-Arthur_Rubin-2013-12-30T17:19:00.000Z"></span>I am not Arthur Rubin's keeper.

As the Virginia Thomas history page makes clear, I made the original additions to External links on December 15. I see Binksternet, Thargor Orlando and Roccodrift are now doing the reverts on that article and on other Tea Party articles, citing the same oddball "interpretations" of the rules for External links. I believe that's called "tag teaming". Their goal is clearly anti-encyclopedic, as they are determined to repeatedly remove basic facts. Open Secrets, the FEC, C-SPAN et al were never intended to be blocked from External links, as they well know. I suggest these fanatics restrict their "contributions" to Conservapedia and similar partisan websites.

Not so coincidentally, it's really hard to respond effectively without the ability to post on ANI, but the short version is that nothing has changed since the last time these very same editors tried to get rid of me. They just saw an opportunity after engineering the block.</dd> <dd>As with Rocco's two-week marathon of persecution, we already know in advance that the Cloud will vote to get rid of me under any circumstances: it's their <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BATTLEFIELD" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BATTLEFIELD">game</a> and I'm a piece of the wrong color. So far, TFD has perjured himself shamelessly; not just the part where he denies that all of our sources recognize Geller as right-wing, but the whole false narrative woven out of random diffs that nobody thinks to check for themselves. I'd like to be able to say I'm surprised or disappointed, but this has happened too many times already.</dd> <dd>It really comes down to whether the community has the will to oppose them. If not, then it gets what it deserves: more articles <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OWN" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OWN">owned</a> by the Cloud, fewer editors willing to contribute their free time.

I think I qualify: we have not had any acrimonious disagreement that I am aware of, and although I have general concerns about your behavior (as well as behavior of some of your interlocutors), I think I can help direct a reasonable and dispassionate analysis of the disputes you've been in. </p> <p>I propose to open an RFC/U with an unconventional structure. The focus of the <b>first phase</b> would be on cataloging the disputes you have been involved in, without seeking to assign blame but just to identify the parameters of each dispute: when it started, how long it lasted, who was significantly involved, what it was about, what parts of Wikipedia were affected, what the outcome was. The end result of this phase should be something that basically everyone should be able to stipulate to as factual, and will provide a common reference for later phases of the RFC. The <b>second phase</b> would be to solicit input from the RFC participants, asking them to identify a few specific diffs from each dispute (not limited to your contributions only) that they feel were particularly constructive or unconstructive. Debate over what other editors have identified will not be allowed at this point. The <b>third phase</b> is to have a moderated discussion on the talk page about the diffs identified in the second phase. The <b>fourth and final phase</b> is like the traditional RFC format, where each editor can summarize their opinions of the matter, express support for others' opinions, and suggest behavioral changes and/or sanctions that should take place (not limited exclusively to your behavior). A wholly uninvolved administrator will be asked to review the RFC, close it, and take any necessary measures indicated. I envision each phase taking three or four days. </p><p>This will require a fair amount of my free time to do properly so I must ask first whether you are willing to participate in good faith in such a process and on your best behavior. You must also be willing to step away temporarily (for the duration of the RFC) from all current disputes you are involved in, and to refrain from engaging in new ones. (As a formality you will also need to waive the normal RFC/U certification requirements.) If you are willing to do all this, and if administrators following this page or the AN/I stuff are comfortable with it, then I will initiate the RFC and propose that the ANI discussion be closed—neither as invalid nor resolved, but as superseded by this more formal process. </p><p>Is this agreeable to you? <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Alanyst" title="User talk:Alanyst">alanyst</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:MilesMoney#c-Alanyst-2014-01-03T16:45:00.000Z-A_way_forward" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:45, 3 January 2014 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Alanyst-2014-01-03T16:45:00.000Z-A_way_forward"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Alanyst-2014-01-03T16:45:00.000Z-A_way_forward"></span> </p><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-MilesMoney-2014-01-03T17:42:00.000Z-Alanyst-2014-01-03T16:45:00.000Z"></span>Yes, it is.

Good to see you come out of your closet of hints about my block and say so. You could perhaps be more explicit still. When you piped a link to my New Year's greeting to my old friend <a href="/wiki/User:MONGO" title="User:MONGO">User:MONGO</a> in your comment above, "<a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:MONGO&curid=13523468&diff=588809579&oldid=588628930">it's not as if we're following the rules</a>, is it?", do you mean to suggest I was guided or prompted by MONGO to place the block? Also, I wondered about how, quoting you again, "these very same editors" (=the Conservative Cloud?) saw an opportunity to get rid of you "after engineering the block," my block. Engineering? And how was the "Apparent Battleground/POV editing" ANI thread "strategically timed to coincide with Collect's block [or as I would call it my block, unless I'm conspiring with Collect as well?]," so that you wouldn't be able to respond? Am I in cahoots with <a href="/wiki/User:The_Four_Deuces" title="User:The Four Deuces">The Four Deuces</a> as well as MONGO? Nobody likes being blocked, I can sympathize with that. But you and I have never interacted as far as I can recollect; I've never taken any interest to speak of in the articles you edit and discuss, and I'll also mention that I think you and I are in the same political "cloud" (you and me and <a href="/wiki/User:Drmies" title="User:Drmies">Drmies</a>, all three of us). It was for these collected reasons I thought I was a proper admin to block you over the "thanking" business. Nobody contacted me to suggest it, and I didn't advise with anybody, but I read the ANI thread carefully first, especially your own comments. Am I part of a right-wing conspiracy in your opinion? Canvassing or being canvassed against you off-line? If so, I hope it <i>is</i> going to ArbCom and my actions are, as you say, "placed under proper scrutiny," along with my co-conspirators. As for the kind of RFC you describe, Alanyst, I've no opinion, but anyway certainly no objection. I blocked Miles; I have no regrets; the block will expire pretty soon, and I've rather disengaged from this matter.

We know this because he went to BD2412's talk page and tried to get my one-article ban interpreted more broadly and retroactively.</li> <li>Since I've posted on BD's talk page before, I had it watchlisted. I noticed Collect's actions, and sent him a semi-ironic Thanks to show him I saw what he had tried to do, without cluttering BD's talk page further. Even if I had missed it, I later received a note from someone named Calton, who apparently thought that what Collect was saying about me behind my back was my business.</li> <li>Collect then reported his failure to AQFK on the latter's talk page, and AQFK then went to BD's page to add more weight. I also have AQFK's talk page watchlisted, due to prior interactions, so I once again Thanked Collect's comments on AQFK's talk page to gently remind him that I noticed again, without cluttering up AQFK's talk page and risking a revert there.</li> <li>This enraged Collect, presumably because he didn't expect me to have noticed and he was startled at getting caught in the act. More accurately, it annoyed him a bit, but he played it up as over-the-top rage for effect. On the Geller talk page, he rabidly accused me of stalking him on these two talk pages (even though they're watchlisted and he was working behind the scenes on both to get rid of me). I did not and do not consider this to be a reasonable concern. When you plot to get rid of someone, getting noticed is just the sort of thing you can expect.</li> <li>Here's where there was a misunderstanding. Collect's accusations ended with "STOP THE STALKING". This was a false accusation; I never stalked him. As a result, there's no way for me to stop, so I rejected his demand in its entirety.</li> <li>Collect did mention Thanks, but only in the context of it being <i>evidence</i> of stalking. He wrote of "your harassment of me via "thank"ing me to show that you are, indeed, now stalking my edits". It's true that I thanked him to show I was watching, but watching is not stalking, and thanking is, in itself, harmless. I said as much in my reply, "A thank you is not an insult."</li> <li>To be very clear, my interpretation -- supported by his ALL CAPS DEMAND -- is that he was concerned with "stalking", and that he saw the Thanks as bad only because it shows that I am stalking. Since I wasn't stalking, Thanks could not be bad on that basis, and they don't seem bad on their own, either.</li> <li>On the other hand, if Collect had dropped me a short, sane note on my talk page, directly asking me to stop Thanking him without wrapping this request in false accusations, I would have done so, just as I'd accepted his request that I not post on his talk page.</li> <li>Collect engineered the block by communicating with antagonism and hyperbole instead of clarity, then filed an ANI report that intentionally skimped on the whole context of him trying to get me banned that day. He got you to do the actual blocking, but he deserves full credit for manipulating ANI (and you) into doing his bidding. He played you like a tin whistle.</li> <li>My gripe with you is that you jumped to block me while I was explaining myself, based on misunderstanding the full context of the events. Your block was also a violation of the goal of blocking, which was to prevent additional harm. Obviously, I wasn't going to Thank Collect any more after he opened an ANI report about it, so blocking me only helped Collect's fellow CCer, TFD, launch a new ANI to fulfill Collect's original goal while I could not respond.

Seems that allowing MilesMoney 24+ hours to respond on the ANI would be appropriate. In an earlier comment on this talk page (since removed) I suggested that MM prepare commentary as to voluntary topic ban(s) and/or list who's involved or not involved in underlying disputes. Also, support for MM seems to be picking up. Closing now, without MM's input or a determination, would be unfair (and frustrating) to those editors who have commented.

But I'll be closing other discussions for a few hours so I have no problem holding off for ~3 hours if that'd be sufficient. To clarify, I'm willing to address any evidence you can provide in a closing rationale. But since MilesMoney intends to go to Arbcom anyway, I think just closing it by the consensus and allowing the Arbcom process to sort it out, which is well tailored to address MilesMoney's concerns about process, might be the most logical solution. Let me know, Miles, I'm in no rush.<p>S Rich, you're fairly familar with these processes and you're well aware that blocked users often have their comments copied over to ANI. There has been no misuse or misapplication of process here. That the process isn't convenient isn't at all a convincing rationale to not close the thread. I suggest you make a proposal at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:CBAN" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CBAN">WP:CBAN</a> if you feel strongly about users being unblocked to contribute in those discussions, but I'll note that MilesMoney was offered an unblock if he agreed to only edit to that ANI discussion for the rest of the duration of the block. He sees it as too late, but he knew how to use the unblock template to request such a thing. No, I'm not convinced that there is a reason not to close the thread. I also don't see support for MilesMoney picking up. I see a roughly 80% of a ban of some kind for Miles, though I haven't read all of the discussion yet. I'll read it all at the time of the close.

(See "Revisionism", "Evolution" and "Kirchick's opinion piece allegations even supportable?".)"</li></ul> <p>It turns out that everything I tried to link to Rothbard is legitimate. </p> <ol><li>Rothbard really did endorse the Holocaust revisionism of Harry Elmer Barnes, with one reliable source saying, "Rothbard endorsed Barnes's revisionism on World War II and the Cold War, which included Barnes's denial of gas chambers and his alternate explanations for American entry into the war, and promoted him as an influence for revisionists."</li> <li>Rothbard really did endorse the political platform (not campaign) of former KKK leader David Duke. In an essay that started with "Well, they finally got David Duke. But he sure scared the bejesus out of them.", Rothbard stated that, "there was nothing in Duke's current program or campaign that could not also be embraced by paleoconservatives or paleo-libertarians", and went on to suggest embracing Duke's right-wing populism as a model for libertarians.</li> <li>Rothbard did express doubts about evolution. He said he "had doubts about the official church of Darwinism".</li></ol> <p>On all three points that TFD tried to characterize as trying to link Rothbard with "bad things", I was right to do so. In fact, the article currently does link him to all three. What TFD did here was to weave a false narrative in which I'm trying to discredit Rothbard, when the truth is that I was on the side of not whitewashing the article, and that side won out. </p> <ul><li>"He added Pamela Geller, which is a "biography of a living person" to Category:Far-right politics in the United States,[210] although the source used does not call her far right or right-wing for that matter.[211] The term far right normally refers to neo-fascist, neo-nazi or similar groups. Most of Talk:Pamela Geller is now devoted to a discussiion about that."</li></ul> <p>This is 80% lies, 20% BS. </p> <ol><li>We have many reliable sources calling her right-wing. Despite this, a variety of editors (all of whom have voted to ban me, by the way) have worked very hard to keep this out of the article. There is literally not a single source, even an unreliable one, which denies that she's right-wing. Scholarly works say it, newspapers say it, her own blog says it. It's ridiculous!</li> <li>We also have many reliable sources saying she is aligned with far-right organizations, including neo-fascist ones in both in the USA and abroad. I believed this was reason enough to put her in that category, though I haven't pressed the issue.</li> <li>The BS part was in suggesting that I'm trying to defame a woman who is, in fact, openly right-wing. Instead, I've been fighting against whitewashing. What's ironic is that TFD has actually been arguing in favor of calling her "right-wing", yet he blames me for doing the same. Hypocrisy.</li></ol> <ul><li>"MilesMoney's battleground attitude is evident by his comment, when he moved a discussion thread from AN to ANI: "wrong drama page."[212] He also uses frequent personal attacks, such as accusing other editors of vandalism[213] and tag-teaming.[214]"</li></ul> <p>This is a combination of misinterpretation, cherry-picking and ancient archeology. </p> <ol><li>I call WP:AN and WP:ANI drama pages, but that's the opposite of a battleground attitude. Rather, I'm saying that they're bad places that should be avoided because they're full of unnecessary drama, crazed accusations and lynchings. This report is evidence enough of that!</li> <li>He claims "frequent personal attacks", but his links don't show any such thing. The first isn't calling anyone a vandal, it actually says "removal of cited material without explanation is akin to vandalism". In fact, removing cited material without explanation is Very Bad, bad enough to be <i>akin</i> to vandalism. I stand by this and so should you. There's no personal attack here.</li> <li>The last link dates back to July, when I had just started editing and admittedly had no clue of what I was doing. Nonetheless, I don't think I was wrong to call it tag-teaming: there were two editors who demanded citations but reverted each of my attempts to add citations, taking turns. If this is a personal attack, we're all personal attackers.</li></ol> <p>Now, I don't claim to be an innocent, but I deal with some of the ugliest places on Wikipedia, where there are actual personal attacks all the time and I've learned to just redact them and move on, instead of responding in kind. The fact that he wasn't able to find any clear and genuine examples of personal attacks just goes to show how wrong-minded and unfair his summary is. </p> <ul><li>"In his six months here, he has been banned from the article Ludwig von Mises Institute[215] and blocked 48 hours for wikistalking Collect. I therefore request the following:"</li></ul> <p>My response to Bishonen on my talk page covers the Collect issue, which is a misunderstanding, and the LvMI article ban is old news. How does any of this translate to "burn the witch"? In my six months here, there have been dozens of attempts to get me blocked on any basis possible, using tools such as SPI and ANI. It's not <i>primarily</i> about my behavior, although that can often be misinterpreted to provide an opportunity. It's about my goal, which is to keep libertarian-related articles honest with reliably-sourced, relevant facts prominently in the articles. This goal is opposed by the Conservative Cloud, which includes TFD and which has uniformly voted to get rid of me (again), which is what motivates them to pile on to ANI's such as this one and pack them with false accusations. </p><p>I believe I've shown that the original post by TFD was predominantly false. I can do that for all the rest of the other attacks on me, but time does not permit it. If you've voted to get rid of me based on false allegations, you may wish to reconsider your vote. This is more complicated than it looks, and "kill the bad editor" is not an honest narrative of what's going on here.

TParis closed an ANI against me, favoring draconian measures. It was immediately reopened and led to just a single-article ban. Later, when Rocco's ANI against me didn't quickly lead to a ban, it was allowed to fester for two fucking weeks until I demanded that they close it. Now, TParis is closing an ANI against me just hours after an unblock. This isn't purely about TParis, but it's a sign that something is very wrong with the timing of these reports.

As you can read above and elsewhere, "CC" is Miles' abbreviation for Conservative Cloud. Alanyst edited some more, and StAnselm removed the asterisk as "dubious". Seven minutes later at <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/MilesMoney/Phase_1&diff=next&oldid=589065085">this point</a>, Miles added more asterisks, and did not provide an edit summary.

Perhaps, I thought, they were to designate minor or major players in the dispute. But an explanation was needed. It wasn't until StAnselm mentioned the obvious that I saw what Miles was actually doing. So, was Miles being dispassionate and neutral with the asterisks? Was Miles savubg debate for later phases? No. Even in this very opening of the RFCU, Miles was being <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:POINTy" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:POINTy">WP:POINTy</a>.

I recall that SPI, at which I tried, gently, to explain the flaws in the "statistical evidence" presented at great length in several of the arguments against MM. This is a critical flaw in WP process. It's one thing to entrust the Checkuser and SPI Admin functions to a select group of users who understand statistical method and its proper application. It's another thing entirely to drape a mantle of pseudoscientific jargon on personal gut reaction, loosely articulated and ill-defined. There are similar problems on all the WP talk pages, for example editors who pick what could just as well be a random wiki-link to a irrelevant and inapplicable policy as if the like <i>per se</i> would prove their argument.

I've always considered you to be, at the core, reasonable, despite having something of an abrasive and combative personality. Please don't make me reconsider my estimation of you.</dd> <dd>There have been a number of editors, including some who have had little interaction with me, who protested the ANI as being hasty and meritless. The original post of the report was, as I explained at length above, almost entirely false, and I was in no position to begin to correct the many falsehoods brought up by the usual suspects because I was blocked. Uninvolved editors were therefore led to believe that these false claims had merit and therefore voted against a straw man. GHW admitted that he would have unblocked me much sooner so that I could have responded.</dd> <dd>As things turned out, TParis unblocked me minutes before closing it himself, refusing to extend the close or to allow the RFC/U to continue. I never even got to post a single word directly on ANI. As others have comment, TP did not take into account the falsehood of the claims against me, instead counting votes blindly and then rounding in the direction of most harm.</dd> <dd>Besides the votes from editors who have had frequent content conflicts with me, SPI accusations were raised on the ANI to discredit me, and a few of the editors who voted against me did so on the basis of the false belief that I'm a sock (<del>StAnselm</del>, MrX, MONGO and others). There were protests after the fact, but they've been ganged up on, including just now by you.</dd> <dd>I could go on and on, but it's pretty obvious that my site-ban was rushed through and did not reflect consensus, much less merit.

If I took a midnight stroll alone in Jane and Finch, it's a foreseeable consequence that I might get mugged. But if I do, that doesn't mean that it's my fault. Only the mugger is guilty of the crime, even if I could have been more careful. Being there at midnight might be unwise, but it's not illegal and it certainly didn't cause someone to break the law when they otherwise would not be willing to. So, yeah, I got mugged on Wikipedia and I could have avoided it if I'd stuck to a better neighborhood, but that doesn't mean I deserved to get mugged. The solution isn't to blame the victim, it's to make the neighborhood safe for everyone.

Do you remember when I passed on some advice that I'd been given about choosing your battles wisely? You're less likely to be mugged if you frequent dodgy areas once in a while rather than camp out in them. Anyway, I really think that you need to concentrate your efforts on the ArbCom filing now - anything else is a sideshow, I'm sure that those who feel you have been mugged can email you and I'm sure that a lot of people will be very interested to see your evidence of off-wiki canvassing.

It was more along the lines of parading up and down the streets every night with a bull horn announcing what a bad neighborhood it was.

I've been Jane and Finch in the middle of the night often and never got mugged or even threatened. The only hassling I ever got was from police. See, it's a bad neighborhood, so the TPS is used to pushing its residents around without repercussions.</dd> <dd>That's how Wikipedia is. The fact that you can edit without committing to an identity, or even logging in, encourages constant vandalism, and the endless war on vandalism, like the war on drugs, justifies a police state. They're used to executing druggies on the spot; no trial, no fuss.</dd> <dd>I didn't get mugged; I got ratted on by criminals. I made a lot of noise at the street corner where they sell Mexican black tar heroin, so the dealers informed on me, telling the cops that they saw me smoking MJ. It doesn't even matter that it was just tobacco; the police have photos of me lighting <i>something</i> and taking a drag, so that's good enough reason to put some bullets in me. After all, MJ smokers are dangerous criminals!</dd> <dd>In the meantime, the heroin dealers are dancing in the street with joy, laughing at how they tricked the people who should be stopping them into stopping me. The police are sure they did the right thing because the blood they extracted from my corpse shows that I've been exposed to MJ in the last few months.

It turns out that, when I search for "rocco drift", this video is one of the first that comes back. There is no reason to believe that Roccodrift is personally involved with what's shown in the video. Rather, it's clear that he is simply a diehard fan of automobile racing. Now, it also happens that Belchfire's account name was a reference to <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Belchfire&oldid=504656780">automobile racing</a>. So, to sum it up: <ol><li>Roccodrift's behavior was immediately recognized as that of a sock. If it's not clear to you why, just ask me by email and I'll explain. I'd rather not give him any tips.</li> <li>He was before my time, but a few other editors quickly concluded that Roccodrift was Belchfire returned. After tracking some of Belchfire's contributions, I have to agree that the similarity is quite strong.</li> <li>Belchfire has been indeffed for using socks to evade blocks, which shows that he's willing to sock and that he has good reason to. However, a CU failed because data on Belchfire was stale.</li> <li>Now it turns out that the two of them based their names on racing themes. It's a huge stretch to think that this is a coincidence.</li></ol> <dl><dd>It is openly known (from SPI) that Belchfire posted from Washington State. In my humble opinion, a CU should confirm whether Roccodrift is posting out of the same region. If so, then this -- along with behavioral evidence -- provides a convincing case for recognizing Roccodrift as a sockpuppet of Belchfire. Even without the CU, it is my opinion that there is only a tiny chance that it's not Belchfire, and there's no chance that it's not a sock. <a href="/wiki/User:MilesMoney" title="User:MilesMoney">MilesMoney</a> (<a class="mw-selflink-fragment" href="#top">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:MilesMoney#c-MilesMoney-2014-01-08T03:46:00.000Z-Viewmont_Viking-2014-01-07T11:41:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:46, 8 January 2014 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-MilesMoney-2014-01-08T03:46:00.000Z-Viewmont_Viking-2014-01-07T11:41:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-MilesMoney-2014-01-08T03:46:00.000Z-Viewmont_Viking-2014-01-07T11:41:00.000Z"></span></dd> <dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Malerooster-2014-01-07T22:43:00.000Z-MilesMoney-2014-01-08T03:46:00.000Z"></span>@Viewmont Viking, I don't think my comment was out of line or uncivil.

I'm looking at the email you were sent right now, and I see an explanation in it. Just because you don't like the explanation doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. You are community banned. The committee only overturns community bans if there was an abuse of the banning process, and our conclusion was that no such abuse occurred and all appropriate procedures were followed. Indeed, the admin who enacted the ban provided copious amounts of analysis of the ban discussion so as to clearly demonstrate that there was in fact a consensus to ban you.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>You have repeatedly told us that you don't even want to be fully unbanned, you want a limited unban to allow you to participate in discussions about the areas where you were editing.

I was going to follow up by email, but since you made this a public matter against my wishes, I will respond in public, and I will use exactly the same words I would have in email, civility be damned.</dd> <dd>As to whether there was an abuse of the banning process, of course there was, and you can't even begin to plausibly deny it. I was banned for Thanking an editor who was working to get me banned and baited me for this very purpose. I was banned while muzzled so that I could not speak in my own defense. I was banned in a rush to keep me from responding once I could.</dd> <dd>I was banned because a bunch of editors -- including obvious socks -- disliked the fact that my edits countered their political bias and therefore decided to POV railroad me, not because I violated policy. I was banned for actions that barely deserve a warning, much less a block, much less a ban. I was banned by a bunch of editors who conspired off-Wiki to arrange my ban and tried a variety of tricks until they finally found one that worked. I was banned by a bunch of editors who then loudly patted each other on the back, spiked the ball, and kicked me while I was down, showing that this was not an impersonal and regrettable enforcement of policy but the joyous beatdown of a political opponent.</dd> <dd>I was banned by TParis, who previously tried to ban me from the entire topic of Austrian economics, but was overruled by an admin with better sense. I was banned by TParis, an admin who has not only shown a history of intentionally draconian misinterpretations of community consensus in my own case, but has previously banned others who ran afoul of Wikiproject Conservatism's ongoing attack on Wikipedia's neutrality, such as StillStanding-247. I was banned by TParis, a politically conservative admin who makes it his job to ensure that there is right-wing bias on Wikipedia, and you enable his misbehavior.</dd> <dd>None of these facts has ever been addressed by ArbCom, and none of them ever will because you have no answers. You're going to ignore them and wave your hand over the whole thing, as you've done all along, pretending that this fucking-over was somehow legitimate. It's despicable and I hold you personally accountable. Your behavior is why Wikipedia editors are fleeing in droves and the project is dying. You are killing Wikipedia with your bias and incompetence.</dd> <dd>I never got to defend myself from the ban, I never got an RFC/U, and I never got a chance to defend myself in public in front of ArbCom. Now, there's an Austrian Economics case and I've been asked to participate. Not surprisingly, when I ask to be unbanned for the purpose of participating, you deny me. This makes the ArbCom case illegitimate from the very start. It makes ArbCom illegitimate. It makes you personally illegitimate.</dd> <dd>I can't force you to do the right thing, and I doubt you have the slightest bit of interest in doing so, but I won't pretend for a moment that this is anything more than a farce. There is no connection between your actions and justice. You are not following the policies that you are sworn to, you are not acting in fairness, and you are not even vaguely competent.

Some people might well have thought some time ago that withdrawing your talk page access might be a good idea, but I did not think that on balance that was to be done until I saw your very latest edit, in which you used an edit summary to make a personal attack, at the same time removing a reply to unsubstantiated accusations you had made, thereby leaving a one-sided account apparently unchallenged. As far as I am concerned, that was the last straw. Your editing of this talk page is unconstructive, contentious, and time-wasting for other editors. Your ability to edit this talk page has therefore been revoked.
