The only articles Crocko'shite seems to make himself are Mormon lists or articles on the LDS. Jollyfish.gifGenghis Marauding 15:10, 21 March 2008 (EDT)

Funniest thing is that I wouldn't really mind him doing that. If it's something he knows a lot about, let him go for it (as long as others can actually edit things once stuff gets too propaganda-ish... but that's usually where the sysops go all "NO! MINE! NO TOUCHY!").
But the main problem is that he spends most of his time mindlessly flooding the main page with his news-ticker-ish healines. I mean... 105 of his last (at that time) 250 edits had been for "Template:Mainpageright". I'd love to see Andy's reaction if a regular user flooded Talk:Main_Page with one or two dozen news suggestions every day while doing little else. --Sid 19:09, 21 March 2008 (EDT)
...actually, come to think of it, that's exactly what would happen during that News Contest thingy he once suggested (did that ever lift off, btw?). --Sid 19:10, 21 March 2008 (EDT)
Ah, no, it didn't. --Sid 19:12, 21 March 2008 (EDT)
I took the table out because the computer says the page is too long. Proxima Centauri 08:44, 9 December 2008 (EST)
Why it is too long where it is now? - User 19:01, 9 December 2008 (EST)

If I looked at it as someone who thought CP was a "good idea", I'd give him credit for setting up and running the borken news section. ħumanUser talk:Human 18:52, 9 December 2008 (EST)

I have to agree with human that these sysop subpages are starting to become personal attacks, rather than an examination of what make each of them unique. For DeanS it is that does no actual encyclopedia writing. - User 19:02, 9 December 2008 (EST)
Wow, I was thinking it that loud, that you could hear me? Yeah, they are. They are also getting obsessive and poorly-written as time goes by, but I won't say that because it might be perceived as a personal attack. Anyone arguing that Croc's news edits (and work) aren't "substantial" by CP's definition is missing the whole point. He runs the mainpage news ticker, and, in CP terms, runs it very well. ħumanUser talk:Human 19:18, 9 December 2008 (EST)
In fact, it seems to me that if it weren't for he and Martinez, the main page would fall apart. The weekly artwork and borken news is what makes their main page "work". IMHO. ħumanUser talk:Human 19:19, 9 December 2008 (EST)
You could set your alarm clock to Martinez Sunday at 7:00am changes to the frontpage (he could always set the page up with templates like at WP which are done about a week in advance). DeanS news project has been about the only editing direction going on there recently as everyone else seem to be working in cross directions. - User 20:11, 9 December 2008 (EST)

I think we might have to make another table for ol' Dean. He hasn't added any content in the last couple thousand edits. Block, cat, block, cat, block, cat, block, cat, cat, cat, cat Neveruse513 14:02, 12 February 2009 (EST)

I dunno, doesn't he get any credit for managing the borken news? And catting surely is a "real" contribution? ħumanUser talk:Human 16:24, 12 February 2009 (EST)
