Our favorite troll is raising Cain as User:Mediator.
An unproven allegation. It would be just as fair if I speculated that you were a reincarnation of User:Clutch, or worse that you were yourself EofT trying to stir discord by stirring up dissension.
He has created a couple dozen pages on Mediation, including his "invitations" to participate in this new "role account." Some of his ideas are valuable, some lack consensus, some are not neutral and cheapen the concept of mediation. For example, he was critical of one user's language skills and suggested that they refrain from editing the English Wikipedia.
I don't recall seeing where he made that last criticism, but then those pages are already becoming lengthy. Being valuable and lacking consensus are not mutually exclusive concepts. So far, what's on those pages is still at the proposal stage. Also whoever it is has expressed willingness to pass on the role account to someone else. There have been no takers so far. If one appears I hope that it won't be someone who jumps to accusations so quickly
However, the content he has posted and its value are beside the point.
No! It is the point
The point is, we've banned him three times.
But only if it's the same person.
I suggest that the usual technological measures for dealing with edits from banned users be employed. Pursuant to existing policy, the pages he created should be deleted and his other contributions rolled back.
Hmmm! So what hidden agenda is there in this attempt to suppress all these mediation proposals?
And if anyone can confirm that User:Mediator is not 142.177.etc., I'll submit my apology and buy the next two rounds of drinks.
You have the burden of proof backward. It's up to the person making the accusation to prove that he is. Innocent until proven guilty.
