[WikiEN-l] DW's new threat

Thu Jan 30 03:18:16 UTC 2003

After quite a while of personal abuse ('moron', 'retard' etc) DW sent me the 
following message:

Will suggest you stop vandalizing the [[Amedeo Modigliani]] page on which 
you have made no contribution except to vanadalize it. Keep it up and I 
guarantee you that a dozen people will start examining very carefully 
anything your retarded brain might have created as per your list....DW

For the record, what I did was revert the page to the style as laid out by 
Zoe (she asked me a few days ago to keep an eye on the page 'invert and hurl 
abuse around' phases. I duly did that while carefully keeping in the one 
textual change he made. However DW does not appreciate anyone else touching 
'his' pages. It is one thing to leave insults on people's talk pages (is 
there anyone he hasn't done that to by now?), but to threaten to vandalise 
the work of someone if they 'vandalise' (ie, touch) anything of his seems 
astonishing. Or maybe there is nothing astonishing in anything DW says or 
does anymore.

Do we have to put up with nonsense from DW or could someone out there 
(preferably someone he hasn't already hurled abuse at, if there is anyone he 
hasn't hurled abuse at, that is!) have a quiet word with him. Or maybe feed 
him a dozen valium!
