Sockpuppetry

[edit]

This article has been the target of many attacks by a banned user, User:Joehazelton. The operator of these sockpuppets has announced his intention to have this article deleted.[1] Edits by sockpuppets of this banned user should be treated as vandalism. — goethean 21:02, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now that the election is over, shouldn't most of the BLPs of losing candidates not otherwise notable be put up for deletion? Is anyone creating a list of these? It would keep partisans like Hazelton from defaming their ideological opponents. StaniStani  17:03, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Since some candidates are notable apart from their candidacy, each article has to be nominated seperately. — goethean 17:11, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds like a plan. So, 'prod' this guy or AfD then? You want to do the honors? StaniStani 
I have no intention of nominating this article for deletion. — goethean 18:12, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
One-third of his biography is devoted to a traffic stop. StaniStani  19:16, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hazleton's rich editing history here can best be described as a steaming cesspool of worthless trash, and I have routinely and gleefully ridiculed him over at the WR this past year or so, but is this preson really notable? The coverage is by local church and university websites, I'm not really seeing an article here that meets the WP:GNG or WP:POLITICIAN. Tarc (talk) 17:57, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It would appear anyone whose edits are not approved by Tac or Goethean is banned and labelled as Joe Hazelton. This would seem convenient for Tac and Goethean to WP:OWN this bio. So much for Wikipedia famed editing model of collaborative participation.Theshirttails (talk) 01:27, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit might have survived had you not deleted many other sections of the article not related to the part you didn't like. --| Uncle Milty | talk | 01:48, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
