MegaDelete The Israeli News Agency and the page for Israel should be deleted as they are the products of a terrorist group that has gained 'legitimacy' after years of terrorist attacks such as the Jerusalem train station bombing, the bombing of the King David Hotel, and the Lavon Affair in which Israelis dressed in Arab clothing attempted to frame Egyptian nationals with yet another bombing. This wasn't the first time Zionists dressed up as Arabs (see the King David Hotel bombing where they dressed up as Sudanese and Arabs) nor was it the last. Wikipedia should have no ties to terrorist groups nor should they disseminate news from them, I look upon the Israel News Agency the same way I would look at an Al-Queda or IRA news feed, not a fit subject matter for an encyclopedia. I choose to remain ANONYMOUS because Israeli Fascists have been known to attack activists who disagree with their terrorist state. --71.102.46.200 23:32, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
I kindly request FreeRepublic to upgrade this story's status to Breaking News - as it now appears that bin-Laden & associates are now working as administrators at Wikipedia.
Sadly that's not far from the truth. Wikipedia administrators tend to be one of two things:
(1) Immature geekish teenagers who supplement their lack of friends in real life with computer communities of fellow geekish teenagers on Wikipedia
and
(2) Middle aged ultra left wing activists who are typically unemployed or do not hold meaningful jobs and who are far too radical to participate in the mainstream of American political discourse, thus prompting them to supplement their general rejection from society with their computers. Wikipedia allows these types to become petty tyrants of cyberspace and enforce their extremist views on articles.
Of these two categories, the first are probably more numerous and whiny, but they are also less harmful. The persons in the second tend to rank higher in the wikipedia heirarchy and include some truly dangerous and deviant individuals. Wikipedia's administrator bureaucracy is a haven for communists, homosexual activists, eco-terrorists, bin laden sympathizers, pornographers, paedophiles and paedophile sympathizers, "transgendered" freaks, ex-cons, and other deviants who have generally been rejected by mainstream society.
Just to name a few examples:
- Wikipedia's founder Jimbo Wales is the former owner of an internet pornography business called Boomis.
- one of the highest ranking Wikipedia sysops under Wales is a guy named Fred Bauder. Bauder is an ex National Lawyers Guild attorney who got forcefully disbarred by the Colorado Supreme Court in a prostitution scandal.
- Another high ranking Wikipedia admin is a "lady" named Kelly Martin. Martin used to be a man named Scott Goehring. This bona-fide Wikipedia he-she is also a founding member of the scientology newsgroup.
- Another Wikipedia administrator is named FCYTravis. Some people at the wikitruth.info site did a search on FCYTravis and discovered that he's a regular on a diaper fetish pornography messageboard. FCYTravis has posted lengthy messages there with lewd content and paedophile themes.
Any parent that lets their children use the Wikipedia website is putting them at danger to these aforementioned of scumbags and dozens more just like them. They don't just troll there - they actually run the place. The inmates have taken over the asylum in this one.
