Pesky little nerds

Some pesky little nerd who has administrative privileges at Wikipedia has twice deleted an entry I placed there. Here's more on the nerd ("Neutrality"):


My name is Neutrality (real name: Ben). I have been a Wikipedian since I was first welcomed by Meelar on May 15, 2004. On October 12, I became the 300th active administrator and member of the top sekrit sysop kabal. ("Wiki-janitor" is the term I prefer). As of December 2004, I was listed on Most Active Wikipedians as the 54th most active contributor to all namespaces, a positional change of +8 from the previous month. On December 18, I became an Arbitrator-elect following the December 2004 elections. My term began on January 1.

It helps if you read the first two paragraphs of the Instapundit page first.

Here's the text:


The Lonewacko Blog [http://24ahead.com] is a U.S. political weblog produced by one or more shadowy figures who use the name "Lonewacko." Unlike Instapundit, it is one of the least widely-read blogs in the world.

The Lonewacko Blog offers non-"liberal" coverage of immigration [http://24ahead.com/blog/archives/cat_immigration.html], Iraq, terrorism, multiculturalism, Los Angeles, California, privacy, and occasionally celebrities and wacky humor.

The Lonewacko Blog frequently "disses" other bloggers - right, left, center, apolitical, wherever they may be. In addition, The Lonewacko Blog frequently "disses" Libertarians, "liberals", "progressives", BushBots,... As a result, very few other blogs link to The Lonewacko Blog. Despite that, The Lonewacko Blog gets a fair amount of traffic from google.

The Lonewacko Blog spent four months driving from L.A. to Maine and back, resulting in the posts in Blogging Across America [http://24ahead.com/blog/archives/cat_bloggingacrossamerica.html]. None of the other bloggers to whom The Lonewacko Blog sent emails suggesting they get together received the emails, or they were out of town.

The Lonewacko Blog has received Instalanches in the past. However, there have been no Instalanches after this post [http://24ahead.com/blog/archives/000829.html]

No reason was given for the deletions. I'm going to appeal to his supervisor as soon as I find out who that is. I have to be careful though: he's in Meelar's sphere of influence.
