I created MINOR edits as they should not be in review nor disputed before public knowledge. I added her family members. Her sisters to be specific.

I added info to her [[:Friends_with_benefits|partners]] although not all of them. [[:Joseph_Paul_Franklin|Joe Franklin]] raped her as a child - it specifies that in the Wikipedia entry. I simply added the dates. [[:Dave_Attell|Dave Attell]] & [[:Colin_Quinn|Colin Quinn]] both [[:Threesome|banged]] Sarah early in her career - is correct.

== WIKI:Gamergate Controversy Restrictions ==
{{collapse top}}
Hi there! The Gamergate controversy article and its talk page is restricted to being edited by editors who have had an account for at least 30 days (not a problem in your case) and have at least 500 edits. Per this restriction, I have removed your comment. [[Special:Contributions/PeterTheFourth|PeterTheFourth]] ([[User Talk:PeterTheFourth|talk]]) 04:44, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

:It's in your best interest to note the restriction. --[[User:NeilN|<b style="color:blue">Neil<span style="color:pink">N</span></b>]] <sup>[[User talk:NeilN|<i style="color:blue">talk to me</i>]]</sup> 04:50, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

::For clarification; A 500 edit minimum I can work through, but this entry in (TALK) < /br>

::<span style="color:red">Women Of Action Media is a website that works closely in relation with Twitter & other social mediums to push immediate action against online harassment. WAM & Twitter's Abuse Problem. In a detailed report released May 13, 2015 on PDF WAM indicated that only 43% of victims actually report harassment. Whereas 57% of the reports were provided by the "Twitter Followers" of the alleged victim. A collection of said reports mention #gamergate specifically; Although WAM's investigation states "death threats", "rape threats", "doxxing", "bullying", "harassment", etc ... had very little to do with the #GamerGate hashtag at all.</span><br />

::It was also removed because it's a "primary source"? The very organization that works with Twitter to address abuse & harassment can not be a source without a completely separate source to back it up? --[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 05:22, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

:Hi j0eg0d. The WAM Report can be used, but we can't interpret it. We can make a clear statement, such as "According to WAM, 12% of accounts that were allegedly used to send harassment were identified as Gamergate supporters". However, we can't judge the importance of the report, as we judge the importance by looking at how people use it and refer to it, which means it is hard to know how much to emphasise the findings. We also can't interpret the report in any way, because that is something we aren't allowed to do. Wikipedia's role is that of a tertiary source, reporting on what primary and (most importantly) secondary sources say, rather than engaging in research ourselves. - [[User:Bilby|Bilby]] ([[User talk:Bilby|talk]]) 05:56, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

:: Hello Bilby ... I understand. But there's still some question to what "source materials" can & can not be "viable". <br />

::For example an article by [http://www.fastcompany.com/3046262/tech-forecast/a-snapshot-of-how-twitter-deals-with-online-harassment Fast Company] by Sarah Kessler extends the narrative of the 12% findings; <br />

::<span style="color:red">''Gamergate made up only a small percentage of reports of online harassment. Though the Gamergate controversy has been one the most visible stories about online harassment in the mainstream media over the past year or two, only about 12% of the 512 alleged harassing accounts reported to WAM could be linked to it.''</span> <br />

:: Kessler also noted that Twitter only deleted one account in response to the 161 reports of harassments, which lends to the same narrative that the findings presented by Women Of Action Media had determined either no really threats had occurred or Twitter was biased in removing the accounts. <br />

:: Additionally an article from September 2014 in [http://gamepolitics.com/2014/09/29/poll-results-what-gamergate Game Politics] carried a POLL asking '''"What Is #GamerGate About?"''' <br />

::<span style="color:red">''Around 1,855 votes were cast (our second largest poll ever), with the majority of them going to the option, rooting out malfeasance in game journalism. Around 70% of the votes (1,298 votes) said that the Twitter hashtag #gamergate represents finding and eliminating alleged corruption in journalism. Around 13% (242 votes) said that it really depended on the person using the hashtag. While six% (119 votes) said it was about silencing those who talk about gender issues in video games. And around 5% (91 votes) said that the hashtag was meant to show that "not all gamers" are bad people. Finally, 4% (77 votes) said that they didn't know what #gamergate is & 2% (28 votes) said the #gamergate hashtag is about eliminating discussions on cultural differences in video games.''</span> [http://www.gamepolitics.com/files/gp_poll_sept232014_0.jpg Poll Image] <br />

::The current GamerGate_Controversy WIKI is lacking news articles that credit any retort to the main controversy; That #gamergate is simply a hashtag and it is used by several diversities. Another website similar to WAM, known as [http://deepfreeze.it Deep Freeze] independently researches the alleged corruption of gaming journalists. Some, I might point out, have written the very articles provided in the current GamerGate_Controversy WIKI. Let alone these same journalist confer with one another through a mailing list on their [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/GameJournoPros Google Group Community]. It was first reported by [http://www.breitbart.com/london/2014/09/21/gamejournopros-we-reveal-every-journalist-on-the-list/ BreitBart]. It included the [http://www.breitbart.com/london/2014/09/18/the-emails-that-prove-video-games-journalism-must-be-reformed/ contents of those emails along with the original email addresses.] Needless to say WIKI demands viable news coverages, and the articles provided have credibility issues with the people writing them.--[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 08:47, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

:::As a quick answer, I think the FastCompany source you provided is a good one. I need to run off to a class, but I'll see what we can use from it when I get back. Off the top of my head, though, I think it may be a better source for talking about harassment on Twitter in general, rather than GamerGate in particular, but hopefully there is something we can use. - [[User:Bilby|Bilby]] ([[User talk:Bilby|talk]]) 02:45, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

== TALK:Gamergate Controversy Restrictions ==
{{collapse top}}
Your edit has been reverted as there are restrictions on the article and talk page that only allow edits from editors whose accounts are at least a month old and who have at least 500 edits. You only have 78 edits so at this point, you can not contribute to the discussion on the talk page or edit the article. [[User:Liz|Liz]] [[User talk:Liz|Talk]] 01:20, 19 May 2015 (UTC)<br />

::That's an issue under discussion. It is an unusual level of protection, but GamerGate is an unusual situation to try and manage, as the off-site coordination causes issues.

{{collapse top}}
Hi {{u|J0eg0d}}, Please accept my apologies for the rudeness in collapsing some of your post at [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)#500_edit_requirement_for_editing_Gamergate_controversy_and_Talk:Gamergate_controversy|this page]]. I'm afraid it's likely to be considered off topic or [[WP:FORUM]], and get you into more trouble that it's worth. Other editors can still read the information by clicking on the "show" link. Please let me know if you have any questions. - [[User:Ryk72|Ryk72]] <sup>[[User talk:Ryk72|'c.s.n.s.']]</sup> 01:20, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

: I've noticed two individuals [[User:Jorm|Jorm]] & [[User:Alsee|Alsee]] ignoring (discounting) the collapsed thread all together. I couldn't tell if this was from short-sightedness or if a thread being collapsed is so readily dismissed? I'm trying not to repeat myself in [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)#500_edit_requirement_for_editing_Gamergate_controversy_and_Talk:Gamergate_controversy|this page]] but languid observations were unforeseen. Must I entertain deficient remarks, or will I experience a greater number? --[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 09:00, 21 May 2015 (UTC).

:: Hi {{u|J0eg0d}}, To give you the best advice, I'll need to have a look at that thread & a wee think. My personal thoughts are that the "page level restriction" that's preventing you from commenting at the Article Talk page disproportionate; but that is still the right place for the comment that I ''collapsed''. From my observations here, if you post somewhere where it's off topic, you'll likely face a ban or block.
:: If I can offer some advice without having seen the latest in that thread, and therefore without passing any comment on other editors... sometimes the best thing to do on Wikipedia is just "scroll down". We don't need to respond to everything. - [[User:Ryk72|Ryk72]] <sup>[[User talk:Ryk72|'c.s.n.s.']]</sup> 09:58, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

::: Understandably. My previous post in [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)#500_edit_requirement_for_editing_Gamergate_controversy_and_Talk:Gamergate_controversy | here]] was closed for being "off topic" - There was nothing off-topic about this. I kept it focused on the root problem; Unfair Limits on the very TALK section where communication is most needed. Is it the commonality to be silenced on a topic? How are we supposed to have an open dialogue about said limitations when my stance is both feared and opposed? This separate perspective is literally disallowed and openly targeted for not continuing the "popular opinion". I'm trying to be objectively balanced here, but this reeks of bias. --[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 10:34, 21 May 2015 (UTC).

== Brianna Wu WIKI Page ==
{{collapse top}}
Hi, [[User:J0eg0d|J0eg0d]], <br>
I reverted your edit the other day on this article's talk page because you didn't meet the 500/30 editing restriction. I've since been told that this restriction only applies to [[Gamergate controversy]] and not all associated Gamergate articles. I went to revert my edit but there have been dozens of edits since that day including several by you so I'm assuming you have readded that content. My apologies for my premature revert. [[User:Liz|<span style="font-family:Papyrus; font-size:large; color:#800080;">'''''L'''''iz</span>]] <sup style="font-family:Times New Roman;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|<b style="color:#006400;">''Read!''</b>]] [[User talk:Liz|<b style="color:#006400;">''Talk!''</b>]]</sup> 17:01, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
<br />

'''"Are You Aware?"''' - I am wondering if you are aware that you are skating on ''very'' thin ice on the Brianna Wu talk page? Please do not respond with your bold caps style of comment, as your style of pushing the Gamergate POV places you at a very high risk of being blocked. There is perhaps a small chance that you can become a productive Wikipedia editor. But only if you reconsider your approach and stop your POV pushing now.

:The ever popular and recognizable star-shaped Wild West sheriff's badge, thought to be a Hollywood creation for [[Badge#Various_uses|Westerns]] was originally designed by the Texas Rangers and fashioned to identify with their state nickname and emblem: The Lone Star State. It was said Texas Rangers badges were made from 1884 Pesos, but the badge in question [[:File:StinkingBadge.jpg|here]] is an inauthentic semblance[http://www.texasranger.org/artifacts/Fakebadges.htm]. The quotation ''"Stinkin Badge"'' is a derivative from the 1948 film [[The_Treasure_of_the_Sierra_Madre_(film)| The Treasure of the Sierra Madre]]. It has been in circulation since the re-popularization of the quote in the 1974 film [[Blazing_Saddles|Blazing Saddles]]. It is not a promotional item nor a prop & it's freely used across many websites. The image & badge have no ownership claims, no copyright, no trademarks or registration of a likenesses thereof. You can find the image for sale on products from both  eBay & Cafe Press.

== BLP applies everywhere ==
{{collapse top}}
You made two comments with speculation and links about an identified person:
*[[Special:Diff/667447719|diff]] at [[Talk:Online Abuse Prevention Initiative]]
*[[Special:Diff/667459002|diff]] at [[User talk:Bilby]]
[[User:Bilby|Bilby]] removed the first and I removed the second. The rule is simple: do not post commentary about living persons on any page at Wikipedia unless certain conditions are satisfied, per [[WP:BLP]]. The conditions could be explored at another time but for now it is best to keep it simple. If you have concerns about an actionable proposal for the content in an article, you need to express those concerns in general terms, without providing opinions on the character of an identified living person. For example, if someone is ''convicted'' of murder, and if it is relevant for an actionable proposal regarding article content, it is fine to observe that the person is a murderer. However, if someone is ''accused'' of a crime or other abuse, the simple rule is to not mention it. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 10:47, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

: {{ping|Johnunique}} You removed my question to an Admin {{ping|Bilby}} from their TALK page before the Admin was able to review it? The policy of [[WP:BLPTALK]] was enacted to ensure that we could discuss possible allegations on the TALK page of living subjects when it's related to the article or content choices. The whole [[WP:BLP]] policy in itself was supposed to ensure that we get information regarding living people correct. It was never intended to purposefully censor or negate any possible new information regarding living people. Only for us to be cautious about them.--[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 11:09, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

The problem is that BLP does apply everywhere, and what you wrote contained significant negative claims. With the GamerGate article, we've tended to err on the side of caution perhaps a bit more than normal, but as a general rule I'd we'd go in that direction - generally the same concerns can be raised without making things explicit enough to raise flags. Either way, I think there is a case to be made that we don't need the OAPI article - I'm inclined to redirect it to Crash Override, as that has a bigger presence and the two are closely connected, but we can make a solid case for that on notability grounds.

An I respect that rewriting the text with names removed is better than mentioning names. However, we still run into the problem that it is clear who is being spoken about - the problem with BLP is making the allegations about a living person, and whether or not we mention them by name. If it is clear who the target is then the problem will persist.

In regard to OAPI, do you think a redirect would be the way to go? I'll look around and see if there are enough sources to warrant keeping it, but at the moment I don't feel it will have had sufficient coverage to warrant a stand alone article. - [[User:Bilby|Bilby]] ([[User talk:Bilby|talk]]) 00:28, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
: {{ping|Bilby}} Thank you. I'm unconcerned with the WIKI Gamergate_controversy. I've supported it's current restriction all along, but I still believe it's TALK page should be unrestricted as "being unable to communicate an opinion", editors NOT assuming good faith and overzealous deletions generally incite vandalism. 
: The Online Abuse Prevention Initiative - I currently don't see any controversy with a redirect. The OAPI website and the Crash Override Network are basically the same owners with the same initiative. It's an unestablished website created to be the non-profit organization to which Crash Override was denied. Although I've not involved myself with the Crash Override WIKI I'd suspect it would need some restrictions as well.
: The comment I posted on your TALK page was to make sure you knew what this was about, as I know Admins are incredibly busy and I'd assume you might not recall who I am nor what I was referring to. I do not think ''blacked-out names'' is in anyway obvious of who I'm indicative of - unless someone looks back through history & digs those names out it's unclear who I'm discussing.

== “Wiki” isn't an acronym ==
{{collapse top}}
I’ve noticed that you frequently place the word “wiki” in all caps -- WIKI.  But “wiki” is not an acronym; it's a Hawaiian word (or part of a word -- I believe the word is actually “wiki-wiki”) that means “quick”.  The original usage was coined by the inventor of wikis, Ward Cunningham, and refers both to synthesizing the pages just in time to serve them and also to the amount of time required to write the first system. [[User:MarkBernstein|MarkBernstein]] ([[User talk:MarkBernstein|talk]]) 20:28, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Certainly. Because the word "wiki" is used so often throughout the web, most Browsers have probably wondered why we use "wiki" in the first place and I'm sure interested parties (like myself) will look up the meaning. I've known the meaning for about a decade now. I overly use WIKI the same way I use TALK, I don't believe TALK is an acronym either, but feel free to correct me. I use WIKI on purpose, because it's similar to using "WP:" when linking to an article - it's my abbreviation for Wikipedia. Apologies, if this confused you, and again (as I know you're excessively adamant about such things) I do not use a separate account(s) in WIKI. This is the only account I have, or need, and to be clear - I do not like to use my IP address, but sometimes I do not realize that I am not logged in. Have a nice time.

== Hugo Award Claim ==

This user claims to have won a Hugo Award, but declines to give any specifics. "Hugo Award" is a registered service mark of the World Science Fiction Society, and falsely claiming to have won (or to have been shortlisted) for the Award is a violation of this service mark. I ask the user to provide evidence of having received a Hugo Award or to withdraw the claim. 

--[[User:Kastandlee|Kevin Standlee]] ([[User talk:Kastandlee|talk]]) 20:05, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
Chairman, World Science Fiction Society
Mark Protection Committee

: Is this a non-compulsory request or are you acting in a legal capacity on behalf of the World Science Fiction Society? I ask because Wikipedia encourages users not to reveal their personal information as it opens them to unnecessary risk, which I'm sure my fellow editor would prefer to avoid. Thanks.

:: Now, we wouldn't be an IP trying to tempt a fellow editor into saying something that might appear to be a legal threat?  I think it's quite clear that Kevin Standee has requested that his organization’s service mark be respected. He has asked the user to provide evidence -- I'm expect that private assurance would be satisfactory -- or to withdraw the claim. For example, if the editor were to phone Mr. Standlee and assure him that he was indeed (say) Michael Chabon, who won the 2008 best novel award, that would probably settle the matter.

:: The way you become Chairman of the WSFS Mark Protection Committee is first to get yourself elected to the WSFS Mark Protection Committee (three members are elected each year for three year terms) by the members of the WSFS Business Meeting, or to be appointed by one of the WSFS committees who have the right to appoint members. Once you become a member, then you need to convince a majority of the members of the WSFS MPC to elect you to the relatively thankless job of Chairman. While it is at least technically possible that you could manage to do this without being an attending member of the current Worldcon, without actually attending that Worldcon, and without being moderately well known to the people who regularly participate in the process of actually running Worldcons, I would point out that nobody has ever chaired the MPC since its creation about thirty years ago who did not meet all three of those criteria. Oh, and you can expect to spend a few hours each week (on the average) dealing with the job of managing the MPC, a position that pays nothing, including investigating service mark violations that are brought to the MPC's attention. The position is rarely competitive, although it was a close decision two years ago when I was elected to my current run in office; there was no other candidate for the position last year when I was elected for my current term. The current MPC officers are Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer. The committee in the past did have a Vice Chairman position, but several years ago decided it wasn't necessary and stopped electing one. The MPC determines its own officers, under the provisions of the Constitution of the World Science Fiction Society, the current version of which is available at http://www.wsfs.org/bm/rules.html If you want additional information on the process, please feel free to ask.

Ever since that day; I have been wikihounded & tag teamed by the exact same group of people, I get trolled in ever edit that interests me, I've been called so many names that the only one I remember at the moment is "meatpuppet", I've been accused of being a SOCK on more than one occasion, I had what-was-thought-to-be my IP address posted [[User_talk:J0eg0d#Mark_Bernstein.27s_Bizarre_Behavior|above]], a call to brigade was included in [[User_talk:J0eg0d#Mark_Bernstein.27s_Bizarre_Behavior|that post]] to YOU and Liz, my identity has been scrutinized and researched on other websites, demands for my personal information have been called for, [[index.php?title=User:J0eg0d&diff=prev&oldid=668399627|editors continuing with OUTING me]], I was blocked for ''"Personal attacks or harassment: Unsupported sock accusations and apparent attempted intimidation on User talk:Jimbo Wales"'' because I dared ask Mark why his business address is actually somebody else's law firm, Gamaliel chose the next day to [[Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Discretionary_sanctions/Log/2015#ArbCom-authorised_discretionary_sanctions|sanctioned]] ARBCOM to ban me indefinitely, I won't be able to defend myself because I'm blocked (LOL FUNNY STUFF HUH), I've faced nothing but harassment & stalking while on Wikipedia - I think I have one edit that was not deleted in the past 2 months, and I know someone will look for that one edit and delete it just because I've mentioned it, I have not been welcome in Wikipedia from the day I visited Gamergate controversy, from the day I wanted people to know that **it's a hashtag that was created by Adam Baldwin**,  all of this high school drama nonsense from people using the exact same claim of ''"defense"'' & integrity of Wikipedia. People guilty of the very things I'm being accused of. Do not come to me with this BS and assert otherwise. Why would anyone care if they're banned from a website that provokes & attacks them over a damn hashtag? Defending Wikipedia has nothing to do with some imagined nobility. This website is slowly dying because of the lack of interest and this White Knighting nonsense can (in part) be blamed. --[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 09:20, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

== Block extended ==

For repeating unsuppotted accusations of [[WP:SOCK|sockpuppetry]], and for a particularly gross [[WP:NPA|personal attack]] ("kapo") both in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AJ0eg0d&type=revision&diff=668422742&oldid=668419965 this edit] I have extended the block for a week.

: [[User:DESiegel|DESiegel]] RE: [[index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=prev&oldid=668460601|anti-Semitic claim]] There's nothing anti-Semitic about the term "[[kapo]]" (overseer), I'm half-Jewish and this is a term we call privileged Jews abasing other Jews. Gamaliel & Mark are both Jewish, they know what it means & are lying about it [http://www.jpost.com/Search?search=kapo Jerusalem Post]. --[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 11:00, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

::: Yes. {{ping|DESiegel}} To keep it simple ... I've been reacting to the blatant favoritism & hypocrisies within Wikipedia; Please note the hatted discussion [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests#MarkBernstein|here]] <span style="color:red"><small>''the used of the word “subjective” as a noun (“my subjective is...”), a curious grammatical error which, if memory serves, was also made on Gamergate topics by j0eg0d and, before then, by GhostLourde.

I know Wikipedia allows great latitude for users to edit their own talk page, but.... See also the claim to a 2008 Hugo on the User page, which seems somewhat far-fetched, even for the editorial categories (he's not David Hartwell) or the fan writer (John Scalzi?

There has been a month-long [[WP:Wikihounding]] campaign by Mark and his friends, some of which are Admins that unblock Mark when he gets into [[index.php?title=Special:Log&offset=&limit=20&type=block&user=&page=User%3AMarkBernstein&tagfilter=|trouble]] - One of his close Admin friends requested [[Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Discretionary_sanctions/Log/2015#ArbCom-authorised_discretionary_sanctions|sanctions against me]] one day after you blocked me for 2 weeks ... I won't be able to defend myself. I'm not the only one being harassed as this has been the staple of behavior for a while; People claiming ''integrity & defense'' yet are guilty of the very things I'm being accused of, and they're not being blocked. --[[User:J0eg0d|j0eg0d]] ([[User talk:J0eg0d#top|talk]]) 21:57, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
