Sokolov's list of racists and fascists engaged in this behaviour include[http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2004-March/011443.html "Pakaran, RickK, Adam Carr, PMA, Very Verily, Tim Starling, and Robert Merkel"]. Of these [[w:User:Adam_Carr]] seems most egregious to Sokolov/172. Interesting how this list compares to those listed in the various [[AWR]]. It could not be a coincidence that on a list of ONLY SEVEN USERS, that THREE OF THEM would be also those engaged in ideological censorship earlier, against 142 and others - see [[142.X.X.X/Tim_Starling]] for instance, where Starling basically admits his whole motivation for adding range blocks to [[mediawiki]] is ideological. | [[Abe Sokolov]]'s list of racists and fascists engaged in this behaviour include[http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2004-March/011443.html "Pakaran, RickK, Adam Carr, PMA, Very Verily, Tim Starling, and Robert Merkel"].

Mr. Fennec, I did not want to respond but I figured I should. I wish to make wiki more Democratic.However there are witchhunts on Wiki, sysop RickK is an example of this.--Plato 23:13, 24 Mar 2004 (UTC) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Fennec&oldid=3135201#Chatter_with_Plato_on_his_goals] | |||

''From [[Talk:alleged Wikimedia corruption]]:'' | |||
Question: If [[James Wales]], [[Daniel Mayer]], [[Tim Starling]], [[Erik Moeller]] were all kicked out, would the rest of the project stabilize and solve its corruption problems?
