 * What's with reverting my edit?--TemplarJLS (talk) 04:33, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
 * The revert: unimportant "leak". the deletion: we've deleted 2-bit internet user articles before so precedent says that'd be4 the same-- Mie kal  04:49, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Another question: Why did you delete my article for Godandscience.org?--TemplarJLS (talk)
 * Because i considered it a waste of time to hold a vote on deleting a two-bit guys article-- Mie kal  05:09, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Wait are you calling me a two-bit? What was wrong with the article?--TemplarJLS (talk) 05:19, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
 * He's referring to both illumicorp and godandscience.org as two-bits not worth knowing about, afaik. Nullahnung (talk) 10:25, 16 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Something tells me that asking why you reverted my edit without explanation would be a complete fucking waste of time.OGRastamon (talk) 01:48, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Correct. Nutty Roux (talk) 03:26, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * It would help if you told me what that edit was, and then i can tell you if it was-- Mie kal  04:01, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * After finding which it was, it was a dislike of how you equated liberal with freedom and then did conservative with the inverse. It was a bit to black and white. And damning unfairly.-- Mie kal  04:06, 30 August 2014 (UTC)

EE
While it looks like the vote is going agaisnt him don't you think that you should wait for a decision before acting?--Bob"I think you'll find it's more complicated than that." 18:08, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * He's going to other sites to encourage people to Harass DG while linking to a lot of Personal info on him, waiting for a discussion is just pointless. who's really going to come out of the woodwork and go "yah let's not ban him!". From there, If there's a quibble with the length of the ban, which is the only thing open to discussion based on voting, feel free to change it. 10 is just a nice good number so i picked it.-- Mie kal  18:11, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * As I said on the appropriate page I've not been closely following the drama either here or anywhere else and I'm not going to vote either way. It just seems odd that you would act before a decision has clearly been confirmed on the appropriate page.  But I'm not going to reverse your block as I have no intention of getting very involved.--Bob"I think you'll find it's more complicated than that." 18:17, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I'd say 11 and counting votes on "ban", with everybody jumping ship from earlier votes in the same discussion (even nutty, who'd so far been defending EE's right to be here), was enough moral authority to go ahead. That and, using my mod hat, he was doxxing david while making threats about using Anonymous and other threats against users. To me, atleast, that is enough to preclude a discussion on banning a user, at that point they are a threat to the wiki/editors and shouldn't be given the time of day or the courtesy of a discussion.-- Mie kal  18:23, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * If you feel that your rather out-of-date mod hat gives you the authority to short-circuit discussion then so be it.--Bob"I think you'll find it's more complicated than that." 18:27, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually, Even if i wasn't a mod I'd short circuit it anyways on the same grounds. A doxxer, (let alone, again, going off site to harass users) doesn't deserve the time of day, especially one who's doing it in revenge for edits on a wiki of all things-- Mie kal  18:31, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Whatever. Life is short.--Bob"I think you'll find it's more complicated than that." 19:37, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi
Sorry, I'm sort of out of the loop on all of this but it seems that the aptly named User:ExiledEncyclopedist is in some serious trouble. He made some really interesting contributions to Caligula so when I saw that User:Ryulong had reverted and blocked him, I unblocked ExiledEncyclopedist as I wasn't aware that he'd broken any rules. I know Ryulong from Wikipedia as a sadistic bully who blocks users on a whim and assumed that he was just picking on EE for sport. What exactly is going on? You seem to be doing the bulk of managing EE's affairs so I thought you'd be the right user to bring me up to speed on the case. Maybe I can be of assistance. --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 20:53, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * There was a ongoing Coop case on banning/binning him that had switched, after he decided to try to Doxx David and seek out external help in harassing users here, towards banning, so i decided to just cut it all short and let us move on with our lives. -- Mie kal  20:57, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, it would seem that he lived up to his name, by getting exiled. Landmartian (talk) 21:25, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

Oh I see. Well, obviously that's not acceptable. What does doxxing mean though? And who's David? --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 22:20, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Gerard?-- Mie kal  23:06, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

I hope this is nothing to do with the fact that he created a category called slaveholders and (accurately) added Muhammad. Is it? Nothing to do with being too afraid too offend people by telling the truth? Oui? Non? --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 23:46, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * EE's contributions have been fairly uninteresting from what I've seen (mainly of the trivia/pub quiz variety: not entirely irrelevant, but hardly crucial either), and they were often sloppily written and sourced, leading to complaints from others who had to clean up the mess. EE also seemed to have a weird obsession with categories. I nominated the slave holder category for deletion, because I thought it rather silly - especially after having read EE's argument for its relevance which reeked of conspiracy logic and seemed to me to actually be an excellent argument against having such a category. Things quickly escalated after that as well as a scraps EE got into with several other RW editors. This led to a vote on the chicken coop on sanctions against EE, who responded by first continuing to attack other RW editors with increasingly paranoid and incoherent rants, culminating in EE going on a vendetta on other sites and David Gerard which in turn led to a landslide of votes in favour of kicking EE off RW. According to what other users have written, as well as what seems to be EE's Wikipedia account, EE apparently pulled a somewhat similar stunt (and was blocked) at Wikipedia, which leads me to suspect that EE is a right nasty piece of work. ScepticWombat (talk) 00:07, 12 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Muhammad being categorized as slaveholder has nothing to do with EE's ban. If you think we were trying to hide that fact about him, don't you think the section of content addressing it would've been removed? If you want to know what doxing is, here's a link. 141.134.75.236 (talk) 00:21, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
 * As for the slave holder category, it wasn't created by EE, and he actually argued that having Muhammed and not U.S. Presidents in it was a sign that David Gerard is an Islamophobe(?!?) and that Wikipedia and RW were all just conspiring to hide the slave holding history of various POTUSes... ScepticWombat (talk) 00:22, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Man, that guy has some serious issues. Let's hope his time away from editing RW and Wikipedia will lead him to get a better perspective on things. 141.134.75.236 (talk) 00:28, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

The sphere is all black!
The problem I have with trying to present a totally polarized view of a situation is that it leads to this sort of scenario in which people are deliberately looking away from the facts. It's like how people don't want to even consider that Hitler might have had some good qualities and valid points. The result is that you have to go to unsavory places to find any arguments that oppose the orthodoxy, because those arguments have been banned from everywhere else. The censors just end up looking like assholes, before it's all over, and the censored end up looking like more reasonable people than they otherwise would.

I don't that it's effective in the end at suppressing the opposing arguments. Conservapedia tried that too, and it led to RationalWiki. They would have been better off giving their opponents a fair hearing. But they couldn't do that, because they viewed their opponents as basically the unredeemed spawn of Satan, and their opponents' doctrine as blasphemous. Secular dogma can be the same way, when people decide that there are topics off-limits from free and open debate. Landmartian (talk) 04:05, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * most people interested in free and open Debate on the "possible positive benefits of csa " are people who aren't deserving of the debate space, & what possible positive effects are overwhelmingly overshadowed by the negatives. As well, There -are- benefits of mass genocide, such as less resource strain, but that doesn't mean we need to hold debates on the pros and cons of conducting mass genocide. Refusing to debate on whether "CSA is all that bad" isn't us being censoring assholes, it's us being decent people, and the people pushing for "Legitimate free and open debate" on the topic aren't going to be coming out looking all roses as you seem to fear. -- Mie kal  04:41, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

The age thing (Clinton et al)
Hi Miekal.

I just noticed that you cut the "she's too old"-thing from the Hillary Clinton article and I raised the general question about when & why someone is "too old" on Talk:2016 Democratic Party presidential nomination I'm wondering why we have this objection to Biden and Clinton (though I tend to agree on Sanders, but he has no chance anyway), but no one has made it about a slew of Republicans in the same age bracket, or about lesser known Democrats, such as Webb. ScepticWombat (talk) 20:51, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

History according to Andy
Seriously, even by batshit wingnut (sub)standards, Andy's magnum crapus is an atrocious bit of shlock. Badly written, historically illiterate and bizarrely tangential in places (especially, this bit, WTF?!?) it makes me, a historian, going what-the-what-what-what-WHAT?!?

However, in his hilariously inept way (made readable and enjoyable by the RW comment track), Andy demonstrates an extreme version of the pseudohistorical narrative of world history that seems to be flourishing on the wingnut fringe (and sadly has made inroads along with the nutters well into GOP ranks). Andy-Pandy manages to hit, if not all then a hell of a lot of the conservative tropes (and his fingers) with his patented Holy History Hammer of DoomTM while bouncing around on his Historical Pogo StickTM. For instance, every time the U.S. fails to win (or win big enough in Andy's eyes) it's of course because them evuls lib'ruls betrayed the brave boys in the field and Andy is completely oblivious to (or at least silent about) pretty much all of the less salutary things that have given the U.S. such a bad rep in much of the world (typically shenanigans involving the CIA).

Of course, Andy also puts his very personal touch on things by shoehorning rants about taxes, persecution of Christians, evulz Moooslims, and abortion into all kinds of situations, but the "macro-historical narrative" seems pretty illustrative of the rabid rightwinger history perspective. The one thing that really surprised me is that Andy didn't push the "Saint Ronnie defeated the Evil Empire"-interpretation of the collapse of the USSR any harder. After all, this is the typical retroactive wingnut justification for SDI, the support for the Contras, the Mujahideen and so on and so forth (while conspicuously omitting Reagan's complete turnaround to a more conciliatory line, especially after the infamous exercise almost turned uncannily real...) ScepticWombat (talk) 14:53, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Why does the Hillary Clinton article need to remain sysop-editors only?
I saw you just protected Hillary Clinton so that only sysops can edit. Is that really necessary and proportional? FedTruther's edits lie some way back and sysop-protecting seems a bit overkill, but perhaps I've overlooked something. I agree that the article should remain off-limits to BoNs to cut down on the level of clean up by mudflinging occasioned by the current campaign(s), tough. ScepticWombat (talk) 06:59, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * The typical "nobody has repeated their [still undiminished!] objections in the past five minutes so I'm about to do what I want" spilled out of FedTruther's maw on the talkpage shortly before. That said I think the question is better posed as how big a nuisance those edits will be. No answer yet from me. 07:05, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I noticed that too, but the two-fold question is: Will FT actually become a nuisance again and should we pre-empt a possible edit war by shutting out all non-sysops?
 * I'd prefer to let the sysop protection lapse (but keep the article registered editors only) and reinstate it if there's a problem, or simply put FT in the vandal bin (or possibly block him if things gets really out of hand) for edit warring if that's the problem, instead of this style of collective punishment. ScepticWombat (talk) 07:32, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Eh, it's not like there's a lot of active registered users that aren't already sysops. ;) 141.134.75.236 (talk) 10:19, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Preempting the obvious: FT doing an edit and being reverted til its locked again, makes more sense than dealing with FT trying again. If you wanna undo it go ahead. The only reason he hasn't so far is it's been locked for the last week from the last time he tried. -- Mie kal  13:08, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, if the problem is FT, why not dish out successively longer blocks for edit warring if he keeps trying to reinstate the breitbarf? And yes, .236, I know that there are plenty of sysops, but there are even more non-sysop editors, and it seems rather out of proportion to prevent all of them from editing the Hillary article, just because FT has a thing for this breitbarfer (and also seems to be right out of the 1990s Clinton-scare, -style). ScepticWombat (talk) 13:28, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, the protection doesn't bar help via talkpage, but still you have something of a point. I don't care which course of action is taken, personally, but then again I only have a half dog in this. 16:02, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

We're obviously voting to make it crystal clear to Castaigne that he's not executing the will of any mobocracy save for the strawmanny one he's made up in his mind.

I am really well-versed with the Kurds. I'm sorry about the nationalist bias, I was trying to add some humor and cheekiness to the article. I'll tone it down in the future.

 * We already can discuss edits, but when you try to tell me somebody "well versed in kurdish topics" doesn't match up with even the cursory glance at wikipedia i'm doing to fill out bits of the page, and has a decidedly pro-kurdish message, i'm not going to have faith in your ability to contribute to our kurdistan article. -- Mie kal  00:26, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Ok. I'm sorry. I was under the impression that their exact origin as a people was not widely known, but I stand corrected. I really like RationalWiki and I want to contribute to this community as much as I can.
