For a long time, Heywoodu. This unproductive, grammar-sensitive user on Wikipedia continues to baffle me with my editing. 

 

Popcorn and reading? I'm busy with work outside wikipedia. Not kidding.

Yeah, I've taken a look at Wikipedia editing once, for fun, but dear lord is it a collection of comma-fuckers, people yelling "no there needs to be a space there!!" and all kinds of ridiculous fighting about....often just nothing :p So I quickly noped out of that one :d 

 

The fact that this is apparently a known thing makes me curious though: do you have some examples of pages where this sportsfandude reverted edits and such and what exactly was 'wrong'? I've read this thread, but for people not editing on Wikipedia it's rather unclear what exactly is the issue :p

Hey Sportsfan 1234,

 

I want to ask you a question. If you cannot respond to my question, I have one wish for you. WHAT'S WRONG WITH RAYMARCBADZ'S EDITS? WHY DID YOU INTEND TO BAN THE USER? Please respond here, not on Wikipedia. Thank you!

Uh...

 

I know, it´s not my business, so I definitely do not intend to interfere obviously, however a part of me would really like to know what exactly happened in Eritrea :p

Eritrea was the sacrificial lamb in this fight.

 

If someone is brave enough, UCI has confirmed its quotas so nothing should stop the creation of its Wikipedia page at this point.

Because you are a clown sir, a clown

You are such a nonstop revert abuser and a sockpuppet police. You are solely responsible for calling the admins to impose me a topic and community ban. Because of these sanctions, I lost my chance to edit on Wikipedia and my editing history has turned into a garbage. HOW DARE YOU?

    • yeah, however, Zorzi is a good name for Italian sportsmen   we had the top scorer of the '90s Volleyball NT (he is from Noale, Venice...the same place of the Motorbike factory Aprilia) and we have more to come, as there are 3 brothers playing Kitesurf, 2 of them being youth European and World medallists in the last years   and there's also a TV presenter with that Family name, but that's another story

    • Ok, that's interesting. So often winter sports are village sports & so everyone with these rare patois names are family.
    • AFAIK, no they're from 2 different regions (Christian is from Trentino, Edoardo from Lombardy, Bergamo province) Zorzi is not an uncommon Family name in North-East of Italy
    • I will definitely vote on Sunday evening as well. This time for real.  Need to fill my final ranking, as i have a couple of clashes, but will be traveling on the weekend, so will finalize things when i get home.
    • I guess, it´s normal. If you look at it from the international federation view Relay quotas goes usually to powerhouses of the sport, countries where the sport is popular, followed by TV viewers etc... means money back, while a bunch of single quotas given for countries which will not even notice the athlete and almost majority of inhabitants do not even know there such sport at the Olympics may be a waste at the end   Not saying I am in favor of it obviously. But I can understand the point, me personally, I will be surprised if I will have time to catch a minute of live watching Shorttrack in Milano for example, quite sure our TV will not make it in its main channel live screen. I guarantee you that already 
    • Biden had no idea, and neither does Trump. Each for different reasons: Biden feared World War III, while Trump wants to do business with Russia. It would take someone like Reagan to put more pressure on Russia, and that would also be a strategy for years, not 1-2.
    • Maybe they should but they clearly don't based on how the document is written, D.2.2 makes it clear that the fifth relay quota (for teams w/ 8 or more starting position) has pririty over individual quotas.   The fact that there is a gender imbalance in how the quotas are allocated is weird, but it does sort of make sense because of how D2.3 is written. Quotas are handed out in rotation, and it just so happens that if you go through the process the three missing quotas are all in the women's 1500m. It's a badly written document (like every single ISU Olympic qualification document always is >.> ) but I don't think there is another interpretation of it that could be valid. You award quotas in this order, going from 1st to 32nd (or 36th) in the ranking until you hid 112: Men's 500m Women's 500m Women's 1000m Men's 1000m Men's 1500m Women's 1500m They would not have included both genders on the same rotation if the intent wasn't to allow an inbalance in gender quotas after completing D2.3.
