Bad Book Spam warning

Bearbeiten

(My apologies for this message being in English) The vandal General Tojo is spamming Wikipedia by removing references and adding his books as the only reference. The books are nothing more than reprints of out of copyright sources, with spelling errors from the title page on forward (For example it is James McClymont, not MacClymont, and Gaspar Correia, not Correa, and Charles Edwards Lester, not Charles Lester Edwards). This article is one of his targets, please watch for removal of valid references and adding of the spam references by new users or IP's. The books spammed so far are:

  • Magellan (2008) by Francis Guillemard (died 1933), Antonio Pigafetta (died 1534), Francisco Albo (contemporary of Magellan), Gaspar Correa (contemporary of Magellan), Keith Bridgeman (Editor) and Tahira Arsham (Editor); ISBN 978-1-906421-00-7
  • Amerigo Vespucci (2009) by Charles Lester Edwards (died 1890), Amerigo Vespucci (died 1512), Keith Bridgeman (Editor) and Tahira Arsham (Editor); ISBN 978-1-906421-02-1
  • Pedro Cabral (2009) by James Roxburgh MacClymont (out of copyright author), William Brooks Greenlee (edited around 1939), Pero Vaz de Caminha (died 1500), Keith Bridgeman (Editor), and Tahira Arsham (Editor);ISBN 978-1-906421-01-4

Please watch for removal of valid references and replacement with spam, and revert accordingly. As for the identity of the spammer and vandal General Tojo:

  • Keith Bridgeman, London is the editor of all the books spammed by General Tojo
  • Keith Bridgeman, London is the owner of the publishing house publishing the books spammed by General Tojo
  • Keith Bridgeman, London is the owner of some Parkinson's disease patents spammed by General Tojo on Wikipedia for quite a few years now
  • Keith Bridgeman, London is also the owner of the web page advertising both the Parkinson stuff and the books spammed by General Tojo.

Read this if you're curious: Why is this page protected

Bearbeiten

This page is protected due to vandalism. This vandal suffers from delusional fantasies of genius ("My site [is] infinitely better [than Wikipedia].", "My knowledge of [...] is way beyond yours and all of the other amateurish editors put together", etc.) combined with a lack of basic social skills ("wanker, pedophile, sex offender, faggot, asshole, looser, lesbian," etc.) and lots of persistence. Fits most of the 16 point definition of psychopath by Cleckley very nicely, although I can only speculate about his trivial and poorly integrated sex life.

Altogether this makes him unsuitable for editing Wikipedia, and he has been banned indefinitely since over 2 years. However, since he wants to use Wikipedia to promote his commercial product (which works along the lines "...if you eat calf brain, you own brain will get smarter..." with a bit of pseudoscience), he returns frequently using new sockpuppets. And, since your most favorite admin frequently blocks those, he does not like me very much, hence the vandalism, and hence the protection. Details about him can be found at Wikipedia:Long term abuse/General Tojo.

My apologies to all normal users for the inconvenience, and happy editing. -- Chris 73
