Hi

If it makes you feel like we are on more level ground, my real name is [redacted] and I am a [redacted] who edits Wikipedia in my spare time (go ahead, look up my LinkedIn). I don't have any editorial authority over the articles here (at least not any more than anyone else does). Anyway, I understand the things you are saying about this article being a pile of crap, and I think that the AfD is proceeding toward a consensus of delete/trim (at least my !vote was) -- it is probably going to end up with the thing you want to happen happening. With my heart full of deep empathy and agreement, I advise you to stop doing stuff like removing thousands of bytes from the article and casting multiple !votes on the AfD -- there is a very well-established route that these processes take, and there are good reasons it takes a week to happen. The reason there's such resistance to your actions isn't because people here are trying to fuck you over -- it's because the typical scenario where this happens is something like this: football players having DUI convictions disappear from their articles / energy conglomerates having their oil wells and coal plants disappear from articles to be replaced with their "commitment to clean energy" / state legislators having news articles about them accepting bribes silently disappear from the article / et cetera. At any rate, I agree with what you are trying to say, but I am afraid that if you keep going ham like this you will end up getting blocked or something; please stay safe online. jp×g 10:55, 5 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
