[edit] Wikipedia Interests
My main passions at the moment:
- WikiProject Wisconsin. I established this wikiproject in late July 2005 to improve articles on Wisconsin-related people, places and things.
I get Wikistressed from time to time, so I reserve the right to take a break from any of the above projects (especially the schools) from time to time.
[edit] Deletion philosophy
If I agree with the way a VfD is heading, I will often choose not to vote rather than clog the system further. So if there are 5 votes for deletion and 0 for inclusion, I will choose not to vote if I also believe that deletion is in the best interest.
If an institution exists in the real world and is verifiable, it doesn't take much to convince me that Wikipedia should include some mention of it. For schools, I don't believe that notability needs to be established for secondary schools; that is, those which in the United States incorporate grades 9 or 10 through 12. If notability can be established, I would argue to keep articles on primary schools as well.
I have no patience for copyright violations; I would argue for a blank slate rather than attempting to rescue most articles, unless I have special knowledge of or interest in the topic.
When it comes to people, musical groups, websites, works of fiction, etc., I will often require a high bar of notability before I vote for keep.

[edit] What others have said about me
- So, Baron Barf (a jerk, liar and fakir) is a Wikipedia 'editor'? Oh, please, spare us all. We both know YOU know precisely, exactly what went on here. Wikipedia is overflowing with spontaneous, amateur, fun, 'non-encyclopedic' grade material...that is at the base of its charm and success. It is an 'everyman's' encyclopedia, it is not reserved for effete snobs.
- In 22 years of professional journalism, I have come to despise lying as one of the most gruesome of human failings. Baron Barf - part of the petite family of fascist censors - continues to lie...not little lies but big, brassy bath house lies.
- Viscious, greed-driven, megalomaniacal fascist thugs and censors will not go unchallenged. The EXACT same kind of maggots fed off Mario and his talent in life, and this current coterie of diseased, limp-wristed parasites are doing the exact same thing today. They are but gay dogs scurrying about urinating their pathetic liquid egos, conceit and arrogance on all things Lanza. [1]
From a debate on the Mario Lanza article. For context, see Talk:Mario Lanza
- 1) BartLauf – He has made ZERO factual contributions to the article, because, as he admits, he knows absolutely nothing about Jeb Bush. But, BartLauf, according to his user page info, is just your typical gay male, opera loving, Wisconsin Republican whose “passion” is to delete the accomplishments of Republicans like Jeb Bush from an encyclopedia. I have never met such a Republican before, but, what do I know. Bartlauf’s only “contribution” if you can call it that, was harassing SummerFR off the site, the one person who knew historical facts about Jeb Bush and who obtained legal permission for a photo illegally used by Wikipedia for months. And, to harass SummerFR off the site before she could contribute accomplishments of Jeb Bush’s record as governor. Great work, Bartlauf! That anti-Jeb bias you seem to have is truly something you can be proud of as a Wisconsin “Republican!” [2]
From the Jeb Bush discussion page, posted by 205.245.14.162 (an anonymous IP used by SummerFR). For those who didn't understand the first quotation in which I am described as a "gay dog," I am not in fact gay. ("Not that there's anything wrong with that," as Jerry Seinfeld said.)
- you don't edit pages according with my agenda, then you shall be blocked from wikipedia! Be forewarned, I have a severe Napoleonic Complex and a small penis. I'm a homosexual misanthrope with deep-seeded and repressed feelings of aggresion towards my mother (who was a one-legged hooker during the war). Do not put it past me to behave in a manner that is both immature and pathetic, for those are the two adjectives that best desscribe my character (or lack thereof). If I cared about the common good, I would commit suicide. However, these emotional isssues I deal with (along with these annoying voices in my head) won't let me. I must behave in a manner that is childish and boorish. Someone please kill me and spare humanity more suffering!
