Aside from my ego's need to keep coming back to, in vain, explain why I am angry with Wikipedia, I don't edit here anymore, under this login, or, any login, or, even anonymously. I have a real issue with being asked to contribute time and money to this somewhat suspect enterprise, only to learn that there are apparently people who hold more authority than the rest of us and can run around arbitrarily smacking us with rulers. I am not some twelve-year-old wanting discipline, nor do I have an abundance of time to waste on an Internet flamewar; and I certainly don't have time to provide expertise or effort editing the "encyclopedic" pages here when I don't believe people should be using them for reference to begin with. So save your keystrokes! I'm sure there is another rogue editor somewhere you can exercise your authority on.
Below is previous chat that probably gives some idea of how the self-appointed powers-that-be and I have disintegrated over time. It's petty and trivial, but that should give you all an idea of what Wikipedia really is.
(As an interesting aside, I saw this recently on DGG's page, in response to another user: "DGG's a tenured and well-respected administrator with a reputation for even-handedness and an excellent grasp of our policies. You would save everyone's time if you just took his advice on how to present such a controversy without disputing it." So there you have it. While Brandon Harris asks you for your money because this is the first non-soul-sucking job he's had, and the project as a whole encourages you to "be bold!" and contribute for the betterment of mankind, people like DGG have friends that show up on your page and tell you stop talking to him, and other friends that just tell you to shut up and do what he says. Feeling appreciated, Wikipedians?)

Your constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a number of edits of yours have an
edit summary that appears to be inappropriate. Please use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did, but do not use edit summaries to comment on the subject, or on an editor. And remember that wehen you add a speedy template, you must say so explicitly in the summary. .

I wish I would give you a belated welcome, but I don't know. Please don't talk to DGG anymore; what I see is attacking DGG and utter bitterness. Continuing contact with administrator DGG may get you blocked, unless you become civil. Also, you considered List of The Simpsons episodes as utter trivia. You haven't noticed, or I guess no one told, that WP:notability (fiction) was a guideline but failed as a guideline because there is no other way to exactly dictate what notability of fictional material must and should be. Also, fiction is the main purpose of readers. Even writing about fiction is not that easy. Anyway, you can contact me if you need my help. -- George Ho ( talk) 17:59, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
I don't know about your mentioning DGG at excessive amount, which would come off as an obsession. As for getting involved, I happen to respect DGG more than you do because he has compelling arguments in AFDs, especially about fiction. Also, I had added his talkpage into my watchlist. If you want to contact him, notify him only when you file a complaint against him in WP:ANI, but I'm not quite sure if this gets him banned. In fact, since your motivations are obviously getting rid of DGG, people might see you as disruptive there. Well, I tried filing a report on one user, and, due to my "incompetence" in the past, I was blocked, not that user. I hope you don't go to that level that I was in before block. -- George Ho ( talk) 06:16, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
