** "Wikipedia may claim as a headline on its very own main page to be "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit", but nothing could be further from the truth. [...] you could be the sweetest, most innocent Wikipedia editor ever to grace its community, but if you choose a user name like "Gbmontreal" or "Rawnuke", you're liable to be blocked (as was the case with these two editor accounts) by a guy like "Orangemike"."

* [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2009-June/052863.html empathy, camaraderie, and friendship], [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Vapmachado Virgilio A. P. Machado], Tue Jun 30 01:47:31 UTC 2009
** I'm saddened by the undeniable evidence, that even on this list it is easier to find displeasure than empathy, camaraderie, not to mention friendship. As I was told: That doesn't really fly here.
* [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2009-June/052866.html It is truly a sad state of affairs], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Michael_David Marc Riddell]], Tue Jun 30 00:35:50 UTC 2009
** You are not alone in your observations, Virgilio; more agree with you than will admit. It is truly a sad state of affairs.
* [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2009-June/052867.html exchanges aren't always very friendly], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Nathan Nathan]], Tue Jun 30 02:01:21 UTC 2009
** You're right, though, that exchanges on this list aren't always very friendly.
* [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2009-June/052871.html those who don't like being bullied don't post], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Eclecticology Ray Saintonge]], Tue Jun 30 04:53:37 UTC 2009
** One of the problems is precisely that those who don't like being bullied don't post, because that shuts out an entire range of opinions from those who are more thoughtful than loud. There's a problem with just asking questions too. If what you want is a dose of paternalistic pablum, that's exactly what you'll get.
* [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2011-April/065264.html something that happens on this list a lot], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SlimVirgin Sarah]], Fri Apr 15 22:36:42 UTC 2011
** here we see something that happens on this list a lot. Someone questions or disagrees, and they're attacked. Why is that? What is it that makes questioning a bad thing?
