From here ; Why Wikipedia is run by hypocrites.... I am not sure how or under whose influence the blacklist works but a IP user make a fair point.

Not me in this case.

== Why Wikipedia is run by hypocrites... ==

This site blacklists names, censors them in fact. Any of course any that are detrimental or rude about the flagrant hypocrisy shown by this site.
+
+
Yet when it comes to censorship of unpleasantness like for example a guy sucking off his own cock at Autofellatio. All we have are reams and reams of archived discussion talking about how this site is against any form of censorship and how there must be a picture. Why?? Are people too unimaginative that they can't reconstruct in their minds a weirdo choking on his own schlong from what is being described in the texts?

Yardy yardy yardy....yet Wikipedia takes a very strong when it comes to user names especially those that mock this great edifice to generalised learning. That makes this site's "Keepers of the Seal" some of the biggest hypocrites ever.
+
+
So much for selfless self interest more like the worst kind of selfish self interest....I mean who decided a blocked name. You me everybody?? No just a small group of "select" admins who decide everything on this site.
+
+
Terrible, truly terrible....


All the user Song (T-C-L-K-R-D) can do is miss the point of the statement and bleat, here ... "Okay. Is there any particular name you would like to see removed from the blacklist?"

Oh, yes, please ... let us discuss it ... welcome to our cult ... get involved ...
EricBarbour
Good points. (BTW, the admin is Soap (T-C-L-K-R-D) , not Song. Whoopie. As if it mattered, actually.)

Of course, the bulk of possible names blocked by this blacklist, especially the "Attack Titles" part,
were a direct result of Grawp's activities. He casts a mighty shadow. tongue.gif

Any bets on how long that complaint will remain on the blacklist talkpage?
I'll say, 24 hours. angry.gif

Hypocrisy on WP? That's news?

Is there a User:Autofellatio? If not, can someone set up the account, please? And put the picture from the article on the user page? If it gets blocked (and I'd bet money it would be), that would demonstrate their hypocrisy.

Just an academic aside here, but the term "Autism" (which Eugen Bleuler first introduced into the diagnostic literature in 1911) is shortened from "Autoerotism" (the diagnostic label proposed by Sigmund Freud). Another suggested term was "Ipsism".

The Attack Titles aspect important. A key part of the meaning of "freedom" on Wikipedia is not about us. Wikipedia accepts no limits on its own behavior toward others. It is willing to accept significant burdens and limits on others (e.g. censorship) when it comes to protecting themselves, even from the most minor of annoyances. Freedom as in paid for by someone else achieves the perfect union of "free as in freedom" and "free as in free beer." It is the freedom of a three year old throwing a tantrum.

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to ban.

You don't need user:Autofellatio. They already blocked user:nipple37 on the basis that their username was inflammatory and distracting. You can't get a better example than that.

Here's an even better one - User:Poop19. He was indef blocked as a vandal (meaning his IP was blocked from even creating a new username) because he had "poop" in his username. OMG! confused.gif

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...h=-1&tagfilter=

So Wikipedia has no problem with loads of porn, violent images, and pedophiliac content - but if someone dare create an account with words like "poop" or "nipple" in their screenname, they'll get indef blocked as a vandal for choosing a "blatantly offensive username".

I just don't get Wikipedia (and I'm not sure I want to). yecch.gif

Right, agree that WP has much worse problems. It still occurs to me to ask "what kind of person would choose 'Poop19' for an account name"?

Looks like the WP "Youtube Poop" article has been deleted, and now it's a redirect to Mashup (video).

Apparently Wikia does have an article though.

How about this one then - User:Buggerit. For our American friends a "bugger" is a person who sticks his dick up someone's arse (ass) - or maybe bugger is OK in AmE ? tongue.gif

You could try some breaching experiments with fudgepacker and poopdeck to see where the boundardies are. Of course, the problem with WP is not the line, but the fast that they keep keep shifting it from day to day, situation to situation. article to article, project to project..... confused.gif

Fudgepacker? No, no no ... I can guess. biggrin.gif

We really must put together a BrE/AmE and vice versa listing of all these useful terms.

Rear gunner? Is that OK in AmE?



.........Stone me! Just tried to create RearGunner.. and it's already there, not blocked biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Yeah, I know, much more of this in Gen Diss and we'll totally ruin our rep for hi-class intellectual discourse.
