KW response

edit

After an exchange with Pedro on an RFA,Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Guoguo12 2(a review of the page history is illuminating), in which he made a comment which was unquestionably a vicious personal attack but not exactly sexist,[1] you first edit-warred with him, and then took it to the WP:Feminism discussion page. [2] There was absolute silence in response to your post.[3] In the same RFA discussion, you accused him of homophobia on truly trivial grounds,[4] and invoked the spectre of involving the LGBT project.[5] It's interesting that you could be accused of the same behavior, based on a pair of posts in the past few days. Your response on AN to User:Fluffernutter, in which you refer to her as "Fluffer",[6] could certainly be interpreted as sexist; she even includes a convenient link to the article on fluffer on her userpage to make it clear that the use of the term is NSFW. Further, you invoke "sucks" on your post here;[7] Pedro's use of the word was enough for you to accuse him of homophobia. As to your anti-collaborative nature, the AN discussion speaks for itself, but you couldn't restrain yourself from a string of personal attacks since your unblock ([8]--the response to Chris; [9]--the edit summary; [10]--the edit summary; [11] and [12]--I'm so power-hungry that I immediately brought my block up for discussion, with the explicit statement that I didn't object to the block being shortened). There are other examples, but I suspect that this is enough to establish that you are not particularly collegial with editors with whom you have had a disagreement. The nonsense in Guoguo12's RFA is justification enough (on its own) for some sort of restriction on your participation at WP:RFA, and your contributions at Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Mattythewhite 2 only reinforce my belief that your participation in threaded discussions at RFA is sub-optimal.
