Gosh, I did make a pig's ear out of it didn't I. I didn't realize the list had two Sarahs on it. Third time lucky.... In a discussion about off-Wiki mentions of editors, I was making a comparison between Carol Moore's suspension which she mentioned here http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/gendergap/2014-June/004397.html in answer to SlimVirgin (aka Sarah), in which Carol said: > "questioning behavior too aggressively off wikipedia evidently remains a no > no. I was once blocked for a week for asking an editor whether his > overwhelming history of editing in articles about bondage of females was > related to his obvious and annoying harassment of me on a noticeboard, after > which I mentioned the issue on the Wikia Feminism page which I thought was a > part of Wikipedia (duh). The latter evidently was the bigger "no no"." ...and some of the stuff in an article on A Voice for Men's website. The third paragraph of this message http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/gendergap/2014-June/004409.html therefore should have read (correction in capital letters): > I entered "Wikipedia" and "male rights activists" and got this > http://www.avoiceformen.com/feminism/fighting-wikipedia-corruption-censorship/ > which has a comments section at the bottom with current Wikipedia members > mentioning other Wikipedia editors by name and talk of a great conspiracy at > work against them, if CAROL was suspended for her off-site comments then how > is this permissible? And LtPowers point that Wikipedia may simply not know is correct. Perhaps, editors just have to run the gauntlet / try and recruit more women / be a bit more pro-active about looking for and reporting off-wiki activities which break the rules and not just leave it to moderators. With that in mind I have reported the article to WP:ANI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Off-wiki_comments.2C_possible_multiple_policy_infringements Marie Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2014 20:31:42 -0700 From: slimvir...@gmail.com To: gendergap@lists.wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Gendergap] Moderation and the future of Gendergap-L On Mon, Jun 30, 2014 at 8:22 PM, Jeremy Baron <jer...@tuxmachine.com> wrote: On Jun 30, 2014 11:14 PM, "Sarah" <slimvir...@gmail.com> wrote: > Jeremy, which quote is this?

See this message from earlier on this thread: On Jun 29, 2014 8:30 PM Eastern, "Marie Earley" <eir...@hotmail.com> wrote: > My apologies it was Carol Moore responding to Sarah Stierch earlier on, I > mentioned it from memory, > http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/gendergap/2014-June/004397.html If you follow Marie's link and then dig up the original message quoted at the link from "Sarah" you'll find it was SlimVirgin not Sarah Stierch (Marie apparently misattributed). I haven't read all the mails, just did a bit of digging. Okay, thanks, Jeremy. I don't follow what it's about, but the original comment wasn't made by me or about me, and the comment that seemed to be about Sarah Stierch was a misunderstanding. _______________________________________________ Gendergap mailing list Gendergap@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/gendergap
