Re: [WikiEN-l] Further Wladk madness

I have posted about this before, namely the unkind reception often given to User:Wladk, usually posting as an IP number 200.46.++. He has identified himself as Wellington Perez Ishikawajima, Peruvian of Japanese extraction. He has now initiated 100 pages or so; these exhibit almost all possible problems, beginning with poor English. Only User:Wikibofh seems to have recognised, as I do, that this prolific contributor is posting material that includes real gems, and is expanding the East Asia coverage in a way for which Wiki-en should be grateful. Plenty of really quite nasty comments have been seen at VfD. To give an example of the value: a recent high profile biography of Mao Zedong argues that the Chinese Communists only came to power after they were handed factories in ex-Manchukuo (which Japan overran in 1931), by the Soviets who invaded right at the end of WWII. Reading that, I realised that I knew chapter and verse about that, from the WP articles I had been cleaning up about Japanese heavy industry there. So - please can I have some help in my campaign to have these articles cleaned up first, before rushing them to VfD? I think some Wikipedians' comments (such as 'contribute to the WP in your native language') are completely out of order. I see no reason to believe that the wiki process does not work, with these articles as for all else. There is a listing I maintain at [[User:Charles Matthews/Imperial Japan]]. I should be grateful to be notified of more such - I found around ten major ones this morning alone, while the database was locked.
