"Forever and ever and ever" Amen - Favonian

I'm taking over from 80.43.82.69 as Favonian has cut her talk page access. I'm copying her comments here and adding some of my own. The 17:13, 4 August 2023 comment goes under TheDragonFire300's comment of 10:12, 4 August in the ANI discussion headed "Future Perfect at Sunrise." The remainder goes at the end. Please take this opportunity, as if you don't we will only be back at ANI (or perhaps ArbCom) next time FP@S riles somebody.

Wow! Perform an advanced search in "Wikipedia" and "Wikipedia talk" against "Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents Future Perfect at Sunrise". There are 943 hits. No. 6 is Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia 2. No. 7 is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1025#Future Perfect at Sunrise of December, 2019,the last serious attempt to deal with this problem. Skimming the edit summaries, I see things like
  • long-term abuse (12:26, 11 July 2022) removing a complaint that an administrator had inserted the words Testicle, Scrotum, Edible testicle and Test icle" into articles [1]

and checking the content, things like baiting a Bulgarian editor by describing Bulgaria as "a banana republic." I'll come back to this as this page is under attack.@SouthernResidentOrca: 80.43.82.69 (talk) 17:13, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Some more importunate edit summaries:

  • Can we please stop the idiotic ethnic coatracking here? (22:24, 10 January 2020)
  • more absurd ethnic WP:COATRACK removed (09:48, 11 January 2020)
  • copy edit and tone-down the source doesn't allege tracing it to the Turkish government (09:25, 30 January 2020). What the source actually refers to is "a state-backed cyber espionage operation."
  • keep your tedious politicizing out (11:07, 17 March 2020)
  • What are you talking about? (11:58, 16 September 2021)
  • Really, people, the pettiness of it all is breathtaking (18:50, 4 November 2021)
  • Seriously, people, start writing proper English before you edit-war over adjectives (13:35, 16 May 2020)
  • how often do you need to be told? (17:09, 19 December 2021)
  • talk pages are for talking to a user, not about a user. If you don't have anything constructive to say, stay out. (18:57, 19 December 2021)
  • complete nonsense (21:31, 10 March 2022)
  • no patience (15:49, 19 March 2022)
  • nonsense (20:06, 27 August 2022)
  • irrelevant rubbish (20:07, 27 August 2022)
  • rv, obnoxious POV coat-racking and quite irrelevant here (09:39, 22 November 2022)
  • how often do you need to be told (16:25, 25 February 2023)
  • rv, that was still a posting by banned user VXfC, don't reinstate (09:33, 29 May 2023) Contravenes WP:ADMINACCT and WP:BRV. Zip Orlando claims I am this person but likewise offers no evidence.
  • stop pestering us (05:42, 22 June 2023)

Still looking.

Please copy the above over to the ANI discussion. I can't because I've been blocked by the administrator who added the dick words to the articles.@SouthernResidentOrca: 80.43.82.69 (talk) 18:08, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

  • rv, that was a banned user posting (08:28, 10 June 2021) [2]. Pinging also JPxG as this concerns you. Material for the Signpost here?
  • rm, banned pest (17:42, 18 July 2021) It's actually a graphic description of Future Perfect's modus operandi [3]. Pinging also The Rambling Man as this concerns you.@JPxG: @SouthernResidentOrca: @The Rambling Man: 80.43.82.69 (talk) 18:59, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

  • rm garbage (08:40, 28 April 2020)
  • wouldn't it be nice if people who don't know any English just crept back under the rock they came from, rather than butchering our articles. (13:15, 16 May 2020)
  • when will some people learn... (08:17, 26 May 2020)
  • and North Macedonia, when the latter changed its name to North Macedonia"?! How absurd can bad writing get? (20:49, 4 June 2020)
  • rm, banned user (14:02, 9 June 2020) FP@S apparently took umbrage at the quote, which was:

Lakehouse will not tolerate acts of unlawful discrimination, derogatory, racist or sexist remarks, innuendoes [sic] or racial and sexual harassment towards anyone. If proven, the individual will be permanently removed from site.

  • out (08:37, 16 June 2020)
  • Let's wrap this so we can go watch Royal Ascot: banned (12:52, 19 June 2020) Unhat the comment to reveal all. This was 2 minutes after he described an editor as an "idiot" on his talk page. Now, where's my copy of the Terms of Use?
  • rv, naive nonsense (15:08, 17 July 2020)
  • actually, sources are contradictory about whether he was actually killed that way or whether he was regularly strangled after he put up a fight during which somebody caught him by his balls. Unnecessary anyway. (07:18, 9 August 2020) No comment.
  • seriously (15:41, 28 August 2020) When FP@S uses this word it's a threat to terrorise an editor (in this case Aditya) by abusing his admin powers. Read the diff to discover the comments which he so assiduously revision deleted over and over again later in the year.
  • Protected User talk:Aditya Kabir (21:12, 2 September 2020) Aditya had told him:

A question: Couldn't find a mention of "you are allowed to reinstate them only if you are prepared to take full ownership of them - i.e. be treated as if every single word of the posted material had been written originally by you" at WP:BANREVERT, rather I found "this does not mean that edits must be reverted just because they were made by a banned editor." Did I get it mistaken? The stress killed him weeks later. FP@S has blood on his hands.

  • What are you talking about? (16:21, 8 September 2020)
  • groan, not again (10:57, 18 September 2020)
  • (11:48, 10 October 2020) Removing a defence submission from a case page. The submission read (in part):

After a gruelling six-month trial a defendant is acquitted by the jury. The judge says "You are free to go." Then just as the defendant reaches the door of the court the judge says "Stop! I've changed my mind. Life imprisonment! Take her down!

  • banned user (13:22, 19 November 2020) The quote is highly relevant.
  • seriously, back off, Bugs. If you're too lazy to engage with the OP's question, just shut the f**k up and stop parading your ignorance. Removing disruptive posting. (22:26, 16 January 2021) [No asterisks in original].
  • who keeps bringing this nonsense back in? (08:50, 6 March 2021)

I'm the wrong person to ask about this; the only investment I have in that ANI report is noticing that the OP did not notify FPaS as required by the noticeboard header. I'm sorry, but I can't really help with it. Regards, User:TheDragonFire300. (Contact me | Contributions). 13:32, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – September 2023

News and updates for administrators from the past month (August 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, TFAs will be automatically semi-protected the day before it is on the main page and through the day after.
  • A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news

Arbitration

  • The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus. Regular closers of XfD forums were also encouraged to note when broader community discussion, or changes to policies and guidelines, would be helpful.

Miscellaneous

  • Tech tip: The "Browse history interactively" banner shown at the top of Special:Diff can be used to easily look through a history, assemble composite diffs, or find out what archive something wound up in.
