Talk to them just long enough to confirm their fucktardedness and inability to listen to friendly advice, and then b&. Now if we were only able to do that on the Miraheze level, I'd be a happy man, but they show an awful lot of tolerance to a certain ban evader/sock puppeteer/global steward banner (PROTIP: you can't actually ban a global steward). But it's not really my thing. I'm only Miraheze CFO and security reviewer, and not any kind of community manager.
media headings made me frustrated anyway. Admin fiat over on ED I guess
has an advantage there. Sometimes you guys can sometimes be too patient
with these people XD.
I've been not doing very much All The Tropes stuff, sorry about that. But I'm working on incorporating Miraheze and establishing it as a nonprofit. If someone here is interested in being on the board of directors let me know. The board is responsible for mainly financial things like hiring staff, making sure tax forms get filed, preventing self-dealing. Being able to help do fundraising is nice. Being a U.S. citizen is not required. Real name and address are required.
I wasn't saying his moderation was bad/wrong. I think Geth is a very good moderator. I'm just used to the style of being able to deal with it immediately due to past experience, so seeing everyone get involved just seemed a distraction when it seemed the discussion could have at least been resolved. Again, I'm not making a negative comment on ATT/it's users, was just making my own personal frustration known regarding that user.
You talking about that Amanda person in terms of global steward banner? I can't remember what the exact story was apart from that she wanted 100% control of everything on her wiki in opposition to Miraheze rules.
On a unrelated note, I managed to get regex to not shit the database completely and move 1500+ pages out of a duplicate category, which robkelk will be pleased to hear because I believe he was planning on doing that manually. Still have to fix one or two things that the regex caused but they can regexed themselves.
Also I'd like to compliment SelfCloak for putting in the effort regarding categories, whether duplicate or otherwise.
