User talk:Purplebackpack89/ReBeerParlour

In general, I'm bothered by this, particularly that this could turn into a popularity contest. I also feel like my edits have been exaggerated by the OP and by Benwing, and a few things here need to be cleared up or pointed out:


 * 1) Indefs are generally only appropriate for vandalism or sockpuppetry and neither is behind alleged here.
 * 2) Starting an indef request when somebody feels harassed seems like a bad idea.  It can wait until the feeling of harassment dies down. Starting an indef request BECAUSE somebody feels harassed (and that is, in the main, PUC's comment) is a worse one.  Is that the message you want to be sending?  If people feel harassed, they should be allowed to say so.  Making an editor feel harassed and then suggested he be blocked for saying so seems like something out of some dystopian novel
 * 3) Purplebackpack89 IS CLEARLY HERE to build a Wiktionary, as he has created 636 entries
 * 4) A large portion of what is mentioned here is from 2014 and therefore isn't germane to 2024.   It's especially not germane because one of the diffs doesn't even explictly reference Purplebackpack89.  Literally part of this argument is "some guy left ten years ago...let's indef Purplebackpack89 now".  It's also ODD that the OP, who wasn't even here in 2014, seems so interested in it.
 * 5) A large portion of my edits have been scrutinized in a very short amount of time Taken literally years of work, some of which hadn't bothered anybody for years, and tried to change or delete a lot of it in just two weeks.
 * 6) Editors have given the appearance of assuming bad faith and focusing on the editor, not the content There have been several nominations or comments on the lines of "oh, well, this is a Purplebackpack89 edit".  That's not supposed to matter.
 * 7) Editors continued making the edits even though it was clearly bothering me.  Doesn't feel like good faith here.  No deadline...could just wait until I was less stressed out.
 * 8) Some of the attempts to modify Purplebackpack's edits ended up being questionable themselves For example, TheKnightWho bumbled into the "is a hot dog a sandwich?" controversy (enough people think it isn't that you can't say so in a dicdef).  Benwing nominated dont tread on me for deletion...and quickly five keep votes showed up against no agreement with his deletion proposal.  And that's not even touching on Denazz's trolling...
 * 9) Given those four things happening (#5-#8), basic psychology would suggest that Purplebackpack89 would be frustrated
 * 10) ...But there's no evidence of him breaking 3RR.  While Purplebackpack89 discusses and disputes some of the changes, he's hasn't broken 3RR
 * 11) ...and many of the changes have neither been discussed NOR touched by Purplebackpack89
 * 12) Many of the editors Purplebackpack89 has been dealing with have concerns expressed about their behavior by others Denazz is Wonderfool.  TheKnightWho has a long list of people taking issue with his battleground mentality.  Even Equinox frequently rubbed people the wrong way
 * 13) There is a pretty large incivility problem on this project and it's unfair to single out only Purplebackpack
