[edit]I'm sorry to block you because I think you have a lot to offer Wikipedia but you need to see about getting your block, Skookum1, lifted. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 17:24, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
- You mean subject myself to more WP:HARASSMENT by wading into the cesspit of WP:ARBCOM when the WP:CABAL that dumped all over me on behalf of a newbie spin-artist who demanded that something be "done about me without going to an ANI" which he knew I was bound to win? I see no possible redress at ARBCOM when said individual is now an admin and my other harassers are still around and just as imperious and willfully blind and deaf as ever? I'm almost 70 now, CBW, and not about to put up with the many assholish insults levelled at me or my having to witness my own posts reverted so as to hide incriminating replies by whisperToMe and insults from Viriditas including "Switch to decaf" and "seek professional help"; then there's the vicious assaults from MoonrRiddenGirl and and whatsername in ireland who set to work challenging various contributions of mine without showing any interest in researching the material?? IDONTLIKEIT was the attitude and the whole affair smacked of professional baiting, given the way I was outed in the Vancouver Press by a SPA who was a press person working for the BC Liberals; by the way I backed off working on Mining articles because a bit of digging turned up evidence of mole activity from certain users who seemed to have links to a US government office, Dept of Cultural Affairs or some such part of the National Security Assn or the CIA about mines in Central America where opponents had been murdered? - and there I was living in Thailand, very vulnerable to violence of the non-official kind.... as for wTM his behaviour and attitudes showed signs or professional coaching and his endless wikilawyering and weird TLDR tirades about me in certain side-discussions seemed evidence to me that he was a PRC mole, not in the least because the PRC's intelligence aims with Canada - to create division based on ethnic groups though aspects of what he was doing was rife with bullshit actions like creating whole categories of ethnicity articles to dover for his monoethnic focus, e.g Germans in British Columbia and the like which he did nothing with other than to create shallows stubs for - he explicitly stated that he was going to research things as he went i.e. explicit OR, and was bucking to get on the top 150 Wikipedians list by scattershot edits to ramp up numbers of edits and played games with a useful book I referred him to by demanding I name page numbers of claims I made as to what the book said, which he could have learned himself if only he would read it instead of cherrypicking from it and press materials that weren't valid but mere opinion e.g. Vivienne Foy's comment that she had seen 'Hongcouver" shirts on sale around town but the fact is no one was wearing them and we all found them offensive, other than Chinese kids who boasted about the term such that NatGeo quoted them in its front page article on Vancouver when the onslaught from HK first began, and the tirade from the foreign press that "monster house" was a racist term, even though it as term described the size of the houses and the way they occupied the lots right up to their edges; much could have been in that article such as the driver's licensing scandal which was not pursued by ICBC or the RCMP or VPD because as SUCCESS put it "nearly all of those who were guilty were Chinese so it would be racist to proceed with the investigation" ------ or in In the Sea of Sterile Mountains by Morton the story about how railway workers in Spences Bridge were abandoned by their labour contractors (the rich Chinese, that is) without even their usual pay in ricemats (which were used for pay, rather than actual cash), and were starving and in crisis until rescued by fund-raising efforts by rich white Vancouverites to get them fare down to the city and/or back to China. re Camp 23 near Lytton he painted the story purely as an attack by white locals and downplayed the fact that that was retaliation for the murder of a white foreman by a particular bully of a Chinese- and he showed zip interest in how Chinese in Lillooet were able to vote or how Lillooet was Chinese-majority for decades from mining and merchanting and ranching and market-gardening, or that during the great fire that devastated Barkerville, the Chinese stood off from the fight against the fire even though Chinatown itself was being devastated; or that in some areas whether up around Quesnel or in the Bridge River Valley the hostilities against Chinese miners were from the native populations, contrary to the myth that the Chinese were always welcomed by the natives; though in Lillooet the fishery-conscious natives got into fights with the Chinese who were digging up salmon beds to the bedrock to get at the gold.....my point is that he wasn't interested in a complete telling of the Chinese story in BC only in axe-grinding stories that play up to an ethnocentric account that belies the truth of a lot of non-Chinese BCers being sympathetic both in the Interior and in the Lower Mainland, or the point that gold rush/pre-railway BC had well-accommodated to their presence until the onslaught of Canadians (which then meant explicitly Easterners or Maritimers) where were anti-Chinese sentiment came from.....rather than seek to understand any of this and actually read the sources I provided him, he set about recruiting admins to "deal with me" and get rid of me without an ANI so that he could write his POV essay without "interference", a clear statement of OWNership as well as as Original Research - looking as his User page as far as I can tell has never yet actually been to Vancouver or BC - the article has been much improved since of course, because other more mature editors showed up, but its original bad-English opening of "the Chinese were pre-existing in vancouver when the city was founded" was totally out of the reality that New Westminster (part of Metro Vancouver today) had had a Chinatown since 1858, or that Chinese businesses in Gastown/Granville were established within a week of Gassy Jack's founding of his saloon on Dominion Day, 1867 - he didn't even know at first that BC's Lieutenant-Governor was David Lam nor anything about how Lam had admonished the new Chinese in those times to be cautious about pushing aside the non-native population/culture and didn't want to know anything about the rude treatment afforded non-Chinese in Richmond's many new Chinese run malls (not just whites but specifically South Asians, a spin article he launched originally title it as Asian Indians in vancouver and spent huge amounts of energy arguing against the CANENGL terms "East indians' and "Indo-Canadians" in titles and categories, - bogglingly argumentative without end he was, I should have just thrown my hands up in disgust but Vancouver history is a subject I had actually been employed to research on (by the Gastown BIA) and from my own gathering interest in BC history over the years before he came along and started pontificating on Vancouver society/history working from Texas and never having been here; showed no respect to me as an elder nor as an actual BC er who was trying to explain the city's history and geography to him, but all he'd do in response was insult me and demand line/page cites instead of actually researching the topic first before even starting the article......
I was left to fend for myself once he found his asshole-admin allies and other than The Interior, who's from Vernon but was working at Wiki HQ in the Bay Area, I had little to no support from other Canadians who should have shown more support at what I was being subjected to = this includes you who told me privately that you couldn't get involved because you wanted to avoid having the Big Admin guns turned on to you so you had to keep your head down. BC issues on the whole were ignored in CANTALK and the various RMs and CFD launched by Kwami, and the war on BC titles shown by Hwy43, who deleted titles important to early BC history as unimportant and non-notable, without knowing squat about what he was deleting - the Steamboats titles are what I'm thinking of, plus the highly notable bio Frank Gott article/title (search that title at piquemagazine.com) - Kwami and Hwy43 to me are just ignorant Albertans of the argumentative kind - BC's native and native language titles and categories are still screwed up because of him and foreigners like Dicklyon who didn't care for CANSTYLE and all the buggering around about town/native titles like Bella Coola, Comox, Saanich, Squamish/Skxwxu7mesh-Sta7mes/Stawamus and more.......OLdManRivers (Khelsilem left in disgust in no small part because of racist comments about his people's name/terms; in one case a US kibbitzer claimed the suguamish where the subject, others were more interested in game played at Harvard or Yale using squamish as the name for their game, and some who thought it was the name of a wind equivalent to a williwaw - the biggest problem is any old/young idiot can edit it, or argue about it, draining the energies of the earnest/honest people like myself with endless objections and stupid-headed wiki-lawyering about subjects they were and are completely ignorant of. I note a comment from someone that Wikipedia has too many admins and not enough contributors....gee I wonder why, huh?
So I thought you were different and the only reason I started this account was to try to contact you via email in the hope that you'd take an interest in certain historical and bio articles pertinent to the threats to our country from the Great Orange Baboon and his army of monkeys happening of late... subject matter I can't but help write about in a POV/CANPOV fashion as I have no truck for false history or half-told history especially concerning BC's boundaries and the many instances of US subterfuge to undermine BC whether in modern times or a hundred or 150+ years ago... but our own media and academia is colonized and anything but RS so it would be a struggle to dig out and line-cite to keep wiki-dweebs happy; I've been looking around YouTube for certain events /dates and it's obviously been washed and certain dates e.g. for Webster! interviews to do with the Solidarity Crisis of '83 when Bill Bennett replied to Webster as to what he'd do if the impending general strike went through and Bennett said he's use troops, Webster's reply to which was "what troops?" as there were no CF in BC other than jets at Squamish and a few ships at Esquimalt; Bennett just Cheshire-cat grinned and stayed silent; the next day the freshly-back-in-print Vancouver Sun had front-page article briefly reporting the conversation, featuring a huge photo of all 27 members of the CPC-ML (the Maoist faction of the Communists) and their big red banner complete with hammer-and-sickle grinning ear-to-ear about posing for the press, as if that shot were representative of the 120-150,000 strong rally blockading cabinet meeting in the Hotel Vancouver; the article next to that shot and the small byline about Bennett saying he'd use troops was an article about two divisions of US Marines on manoeuvre in Sedro Woolley, Skagit County WA - about 1/2 hour from the border; we all drew our breaths, Jack Munro of the IWA and Bennett went into a meeting in Kelowna and Munro came out looking shaken but claiming an accord had been reached but it was complete fiction as we found out, just a Socred bluff, but it was obviously to do with the "troops" comment and we all balked at the imploation and the strike never went forward, though there were still picketlines up all around the province... all this had been in response to the so-called Restraint Budget which kicked off the Uprising, which is the closest BC has been to revolution and an end to parliamentary government in BC as we knew we'd been cheated; the election had been called by the L-G, who had to issue emergency warrants to keep the govt payroll and social cheques rolling while an election was held because of the emergency caused by Bennett staying in office even though his mandate to spend had expired - on April 1 no less - on the 4th the L-G called/ordered Bennett to Government House and scolded him then ordered an election 30 days hence. The election was won thanks to Bill Harris' Big Blue Machine who were sent west to help Bennett out, the payback for which was the overly-expensive Skytrain contract providing an Ontario company with a huge deal which is why we're stuck with it now - when the Vancouver Province came back into print the day after the rally, it was in new tabloid format like the Toronto Sun with the headline announcing Expo '67 saying "See Chuck and Di" with a huge photo of the to=be-lamented Prince Diana; Expo and its hype washed away the tension of the almost-strike and started a round or property-value escalation that turned us into a world of bizarre rents and even more bizarre property prices, an escalation that was later mirrored by the 2010 Winter Olympics property-jacking; in both instances many people even non-potheads were launching grow-ops in their basements to keep the mortgage paid (all true)....none of the events described are to be found in print or on video, unless someone were willing to spend days in the Vancouver or RBCM Archives of the university equivalents, but I suspect the G&M's "Special BC Edition" launched the the Sun and Province were locked-out in '83 are not to be found in any archive anywhere, same as the critical dates for news coverages (such as it was on BCTV or CBC) so finding RS for our actual history because of long-time bias in BC's media since the founding of the Colony; history being written by the victors as nearly-always of course; one example of how RS affected a bio is Chief Hunter Jack where details of that individuals life and death were misportrayed in The Prospector (Lillooet's paper in those days) with an emphasis on alcohol and covering for the story put forward that he was drunk and fell on his head on an oarlock and avoided talking about how he'd been aggressively confronted by two Americans who were trying to badger him to disclose the location of his fabulously-rich placer rind (a secret that remains secret today)......media bias becomes fact, is the biggest problem with WP:RS and the equivocations to be found in WP:TRUTH.....
So sorry CBW, I'm not about to waste a half-year or more being subjected to wiki-hostility and wiki-bullying to win at ARBCOM to get my block lifted - I've long outgrown putting up with bullying never mind organized bullying from admins of questionable real-world identities and heavy on the USPOV and BrItPOV sides of things who argue against CANPOV and CANENGL and having no global validity and outright state they can't be bothered to read anything more than one short paragraph as TLDR - which to me is the sign of someone not educated enough or with no attention span, all the worse if they're in a distant state or on another continent with no knowledge of BC; to me this applies to most Canucks, too, not just Hwy43 or Kwami.....when I write now, I don't need to be hamstrung by NPOV or wikistyle and will express myself as I see fit as the internet is lot bigger than Wikipedia, which too many people regard as a valid source which it's expressly not; I've got videos to make on local BC history and the long history of American designs on BC to write up on, all of which y'all on the other side of the Granite Curtain are oblivious to and seemingly want to stay that way - if you think I have a lot to contribute to wikipedia you could speak up for me on ARBCOM or wherever is appropriate, but make a point of excluding those who gangf****d me from taking part in maligning me further than I already have been, suffering in silence all alone when there were many who would have spoken up for me if only they had dared...the anonymous nature of wikimedia's funding raises questions for me about the motives/backing of many admins including those who hounded me...this is problem that won't go away especially considering the current social=media environment e.g the flood of American and Albertan "creators" onslaughting YouTube pushing Alberta separatism and lately trying to include BC and SK and MB and YT in their propaganda campaigns....the fifth column in Canada is obvious lately, and you being way up on Victoria Island NU far from the truth of the madness growing south of the line, and me living less than 20 miles from Whatcom County too-acutely aware of it all, and conversant in BC's origins to not recognize the pressure we're under including from our "own" US-owned media and also the Central Canada bias of things overall..... I've already once been outed in the Vancouver media by User:sunciviclee who only created his account to get me to contact him, which I did on my own dime, without him being even slightly wiki-punished and proof of is SPA-dom is he's done nothing since even in his claimed interest in bee-keeping....
I obviously have a long-detailed memory, and an abused, bruised one of course, but see little point in casting pearls before swine - and there's far too many wiki-swine with power to want to wallow with any of their pseudo-intellectual wikilawyering and bullying; I've got a lot to contribute, yes, but it's worth more to me to publish in the real world rather than with a head-down muzzled world of Wikipedia. To me, wat's needed is an abject apology from wiki-HQ where I know Jimbo Wales watched what was heppening and likely provided advice on "how to deal with me" and asigned home-office staff to get it done; all of the bullying was IMO quite liberate and meant to exhaust and get me angry enough to not take the time to open my own ANI on the matter so as to do mh own WP polling to recruit help from Carrite and others who I know would support me - "squash him in a bottle and shit in it so it'll piss him enough to justify permanently blocking him" was the strategy and Id seen tons of ANIs and RMs and CFDs and such to know that POV gang-f*****ng was regular practice. I'm old and crotchety now big-time so an not in a mood to spend months of my time begging to come back from those more interested in blocking me than in even half-listening... too many in your increasingly small pool of admins are, to me, not well-educated and too easily disposed to suspicions and outright hatreds.
Again, I only l only launched this account in the hope of contacting you about certain content issues and how to undamage things still undone such as Hwy43's deletions and the remaining conesequences o Kwami's native name/language peremptory name-diddling; there's still remaining USPOV vs CANPOV issues throughout Wikipedia, and the remaining premise that CANENGL and CANSTYLEE are pre-emped ty "global contexts" and I know in various categories I'm up against paid p.r. operativas as with the mining articles and so on. Only so much time left in my life and I don't want to spend it arguing with idiots and/or professionals masquerading as nobodies... so there, I've gone and wasted over an hour explaining why I can't be bothered trying to beg my way back into huge waste-0f-time that is what Wikipedia constitutes - I remain offended by the waY i was treated and would have to see apologetic attitudes from my principal harassers to even think about coming back; unlike many here I don't have a stipend or such to live on, and am lucky that my CPP and OAP are enough to pay for my extended care rent and wheelchair and such- or I'd be trying to live in a tent somewhere like too many in this country...as someone remarked to me once about wikiland, "write/publish yourself without idiots kibbitzing you, and they'll be forced to cite/quote you" So be it. If you'd care to hear my edit/content suggestions, reply to my email-you queries and forget I even started this damned account......
