i suspect that
your continued rantings and overuse of sarcasm & targetting
of various editors is going to do more to harm your cause than help it.
I believe the only editor he targeted was you. Oh, and MONGO. I don't
think two editors == various editors.
Actually, it seems I've mentioned at least four editors...
[[User:KamrynMatika]], [[User:ElinorD]], [[User:MichaelLinnear]], and
[[User:MONGO]]... well, five if you count [[User:Essjay]], and maybe
even six (didn't [[Teresa Nielsen Hayden]] show up herself as an
editor?). Of course, I wasn't actually "targeting" all of them; I
was favorable or neutral to some of them.
you would be
much better off spending your time making reasonable, rational
arguments presented in a calm, non-accusatory manner and attempting to
engage the editors you disagree with in proper discussion as opposed to
bitching about them on the mailing list
I get the impression he's tried engaging with editors like you and
MONGO and is now quite exasperated.
Maybe you should defend your decision to block an editor who was
properly sourcing an article. Which seems pretty indefensible to me,
but I have a limited imagination.
Ummm... wait a minute, ElinorD was the one who did the block.
User:KamrynMatika, who you're replying to, was the one who *got*
blocked. Big difference!
