Statement of the dispute

Boothy443 has shown a clear lack of good conduct in recent months. Boothy claimed on his user page a while back that "Admins are evil", and has since opposed almost every RfA posted without reasoning. While this is allowed, it appears to be to prove a point that "Admins, especially new ones, are not good people". He has also engaged in personal attacks, sometimes even through edit summaries, which leaves non-user friendly comments in page histories. Friendly suggestions and advice on his user page is promptly deleted by him, often with a personal attack. He also recently redirected his user talk page to Wikipedia:Sheep vote, and replaced his signature with a link to it too. I consider this to be disrupting Wikipedia.

Boothy443 has been warned before, but he simply deletes and ignores the advice given to him. If he continues, he will only further disrupt the RfA process, and drive users away from Wikipedia with his deliberate personal comments. Hedley 14:49, 24 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Description

  • Boothy443 opposes almost all RfAs to seemingly prove a point that "Admins are evil".
  • He deletes most comments from his talk page, even though there are advice from other users. In deleting them he often engages in personal attacks.
  • He uses personal attacks in edit summaries, and upon opposing RfAs claims that he is being censored by "evil admins".
  • He has disrupted Wikipedia by redirecting his user talk page to Wikipedia:Sheep vote.
