It

would be better if they changed the title to ! Switch, just like Question Mark Block to ? Block. Unshy Guy (talk) 20:11, 17 November 2013 (EST)

Yes

'Strongest possible support - I've linked people between cross site accounts on arbcom pages multiple times. One case involved Wiki-PR, the other a gamergator. I don't remember the gamergator's name offhand, but it's in my arbcom case against me (even though it was a block linking real names and offsite acccounts unanimously upheld and still in place as an arban that would never have been accepted or actioned if it wasnt filed by an ex-arb and contained multiple falsehoods suggesting voting arbs did not review the evidence. WTT claims that I said I wasn't up for recall - my RFArb pae said the exact opposite, but WTT is clearly right. It skipped the whole chain normally required to go to arbcom, and ignored plenty of stuff like the fact tht initial admonishment they cited was two weeks after I got the tool set, involved someone at risk of suicide with two cops in my office - and I used the wrong button/phonenumber, but seriously, two major mistakes that far apart? Yeah, in large part that's why I've been around lately little The gamergator block, though cited against me, was unanimously endorsed as a good block by arbcom in an earlier case, and frankly, I don't think anyone thinks revealing the account of one of the owners of Wiki-PR did any harm. If I recall, the community ban that passed on them, which named both individuals, was text I directly wrote actually made it in to the Cooley C&D. I don't have their DB - even their old DB of articles - but we have at least 5000 articles from them still, and at least at the time of the SXSW pinata I had a journalist send me another crop of articles with proof they had written them, that I G5'ed under the ban and sent to the office, which expressed significant interest (me even invoking the uanimous cban could arguably be outing the banned accounts, since some used 'names that could be real.' Overwhelmingly the names used on E-Lance and similar sites are fake - I've seen less than five paid editors use their real names off the top of their heads across all platforms I frequent.

Anyone remember the DMOZ? And how it was useful before taken over by commercial spam? When was the last time you used it? That's where we're headed if we don't get paid editing under control - I'm literally intending on making a backup as WP as it is today in anticipation of that. Credibility we've gained with the public, media, and academia, if we don't get this under control? Gone. Because everyone willin to tackle it is either being driven away, or made unble to do so.

I'll write-up a userpage tearing apart the previous arbcom's decision based on a combination of flimsy evidece, a serious error I made that was taken with care after I was approached by a CU clerk asking to take a look at a CU case that involved an EDU course that I unblocked after >24 hours with the consent of the clerk - while still suffering from the tail end of encephalitis which meant I lacked perfect memory (the oversighter agreed it was the correct choice, performed wrongly, and saw it worth a two sentence reminder) - I've since reread every policy we have multiple times while losing the encephalitis, yet can no longer use the tools in an edu setting, which has killed a couple dozen classes as well as grants. (I had more than half a dozen reasons to in edu settings; email if you'd like to know them as it's getting off topic,) and no longer delete the hundreds or thousands of paid articles I could in five hours, or block obviously connected accounts. Arguably even if I got the bit back I would be unable to even enforce the unanimous cban that I wrote that passed unanimously if it was someone who 'sounded' like the name might be real - or track down using the same methods WiliamH, Dennis, etc used to delete many WikiPR articles (excepting WilliamH's use of CU.) Btw, I bet you can guess why an excellent crat active on Wiki-PR suddenly left his tools and retired. Last time I kept track - there were at least 30 paid editing outfits. Any guess as to how many there are now now that most of those who could take care of them and track them are gone, deliberately discouraged from doing so or no longer capable of doing so?
