INDECENCY ON WIKIPEDIA

You might be thinking that surely there are some decent admins that would recognize the butchering which just occured by a bad-faith admin, and step in to atleast suggest the draft be appropriately restored for Teahouse. Not at all. What happens next is a saga that will be enshrined in Wikipedia history.

Editor RandyKnotts was not about to just walk away without a full discussion and demanding to be treated fairly. This saga goes all the way to the very top of Wikipedia and proves that bias and corruption is at every level. It should have been a no-brainer that the draft be approved as an article by Teahouse or atleast given a standard six-month chance for improvement. In reality though, Jim F. Bleak intercepted the submitted draft before a Teahouse admin could peform the normal fair process, and he simply erased it all. Not even a second day or second draft was allowed to work on Jim F. Bleak's bogus claim. That's because Jim F. Bleak was clearly wrong, he knew it, and he didn't care. It seems to be the point actually.

Remember, Jim F. Bleak loves to destroy more than create, and he takes egotistic satisfaction in getting his way about it. He's blocked almost fourty thousand Wikipedian editors, mostly Americans. Some of his victims hadn't even edited for years. RandyKnotts appropriately started by leaving a message on Jim F. Bleak's talk page respectfully asking for reinstatement of the draft, while skillfully discrediting Jim F. Bleak's given reason about references.

At this point, the admin could have easily just reinstated the draft article and moved on, but he couldn't cope with the idea of doing a 180 because of a complaint. His reputation for being a ruthless admin that always wins one way or the other was on the line. Instead, Jim F. Bleak began a gaslighting campaign. He simply moved on to another reason completely unrelated to the bogus reason the draft was now non-existent, and he did so with thick sarcasm. Ironically, his new excuse was that the tone of the draft was promotional he claimed. Editor RandyKnotts argued that it wasn't, but agreed anyway to rephrase or omit any lines that Jim F. Bleak had decided were of a non-neutral tone.

This olive branch was thrown back at RandyKnotts, by an admin that never had any intention of being reasonable. He simply dropped those excuses and moved on to yet another, the subject wasn't notable enough he now claimed. Along with each new excuse, the abusive admin included some measure of dismission and condescension in his remarks increasing the growing tension. A forming audience of stalking hyaena-like admins began to build, waiting to nip away.
