There was this guy with username TenPoundHammer who would go on to submit frivolous or simply overzealous requests to delete Wikipedia articles that he felt substandard but is salvageable according to others. This week he finally messed up badly when he proposed the deletion of the "Education in Moldova" article which cause much acrimony enough to raise the issue at one of Wikipedia's public noticeboard.

Though the drama has died down with TenPoundHammer being prohibited from proposing or making any further deletions, it is worthy for a chuckle for here it was:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=822196480 (Number 4: TenPoundHammer).

Since the folks there prohibits cross-site brigading and the issue is already "closed", please keep your pitchforks here.

My favourite part of the drama when a German guy probably travelling in Malaysia now debunk TenPoundHammer's insistence of "everything in good faith", with a beautiful manner:

Comment As the target, I would not be opposed to a temporary ban or throttle on AFDs, but I think a permanent one is too extreme no matter the circumstances. If I were constantly doing it solely to disrupt the project, then that'd be another issue. But every AFD I've ever made has been in good faith, I've just had the misfortune of extremely poor Google-fu and some confirmation bias to seem way more destructive than I am. I think even the people who are in biggest support of blocking me from AFD should realize that I am doing every single one in good faith.

Wow you sounded like the General Zod from the Man of Steel (film). There was this tagline which he acted like you when confronted by Superman for his attempted destructive terraforming of Earth. General Zod: No matter how violent, every action I take is for the greater good of my people.

Feel free to dismiss it as being dorky but Godwin's law aside, I got another well-known real-life tale to relate which you should get immediately unless you've been flunking history classes. An Austrian artist who was quite talented applies to an arts academy but he didn't met the requirement. During World War I he went to Deutschland and enlisted in their army but after the war which we lost he returned to Munich who like most of us back then believed that a certain ethnic group was betraying "our fatherland" during the first war and therefore must be expelled from Germany. Someone in an obscure party are impressed by his ideals and invites him to get in league then slowly over and over time the former artist would grow the small party into one of the largest in the parliament. Eventually he was appointed the Kanzler and he started to do what he believed was "good for the people" and will "make Germany great again" but instead all of Europe and especially Germany got burned by the fire that he started with good intentions. The ethnic group that he wanted to simply expel? It went far further than that tragically.

Yes, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. That's why I'm vehemently opposed against you and reckless deletionism in general as what you represented are in fact against intristic wiki principles inherently which is bad for the project in the long run.14.192.208.83 (talk) 15:10, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
