Before you start engaging in drastic or punitive
actions it helps to
discuss the problem with him first.. Negotiation can be a wonderful tool.
Well, it was maybe a matte of
shoot first then ask questions.
I had asked about the situation
before from others, and no one
seems to know why there were
so many deletions and why the
article counts were so screwy.
Like a hundred thousand words
deleted. That wasn't just a few
articles with "stubs". And that's
only one instance. There are
negative new article entries???
What's up with that?
And the complaints from disgusted
contributors who kept wondering
where were articles that they'd
edited? And I've experienced it
myself. Sometimes I'd think that
they were problems with the software,
that perhaps there were upgrades,
or shutdowns which required the
reloading of a database... and what
else... I don't know... no one seems
to know obviously.
What I did find was that Jcb was
deleting articles. And he did have
a bot active on the wiki. So I posted
that I was blocking him until the
matter could be resolved with the
deletions going on in ia.wiki
and that's the situation up to now.
Since,
Jay B.
