Tony Fox Welcome to my user page. I'm an admin, so feel free to ask me to help out with admin-related issues. My general targets for admin work involve deletion and vandal issues. I try to help with conflict issues when they crop up. Lately, I've been lacking in the concentration needed to focus in on things here, but eventually I'm going to get to work on finishing up a FA project. Really. When I started on Wikipedia, it had defined rules and guidelines, and specific ways for things to be done. Reliable sources were newspapers, magazines, journals, and expert-moderated online sources; vandals, idiots and other unsavoury types were indefinitely blocked... stuff like that. These days? We're unbanning and coddling the idiots, vandals and others, and reliable sources have turned into blogs saying "Hey, this guy said that happened, so it must be right!" Challenge any of that, and you might as well just bang your head on a wall until you pass out. If anyone wonders why I mostly just vandal-revert and occasionally do admin stuff in a low-key way, well... there you go. A bit disillusioned, yes. Got a problem with a deletion I've made? It may be on this wonderful list. If it is, rethink your motives, please. Activities Things I've been working on.
