Troglodytes

A number of questions I'm pondering: why Texan IP user 108.199.114.22 considers troglodytism to be a disqualification for being human; and why the Troglodyte disambiguation page doesn't mention such famous troglodytes as the ones from Anatolia. ← ZScarpia 15:25, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, these messages often raise more questions than they answer particularly about the nature of cognitive and ethical impairments. Still, I enjoy them. Sean.hoyland - talk 15:58, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

ZScarpia, exact geography is essential for good anthropology. In particular, I'd recommend a different geolocation service. -- ElComandanteChe^ταλκ 20:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Capadoccia, then? Have to say, those tunneled-out homes look more desirable than the place I stay. ← ZScarpia 11:15, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! ... just realised what you meant. Sorry to be so obtuse. What location do you get? Other services still give me Texas. ← ZScarpia 13:36, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Those caves are nice. I think the location confusion comes from AT&T's legal dept being in San Antonio but the server is somewhere in Connecticut. It's probably an anonymizing proxy anyway I guess. Sean.hoyland - talk 13:42, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Just before you answered, it suddenly occurred to me that they're probably connecting via a mobile phone service, or some such. I've never myself done anything which required me to hide my address and I haven't yet been the object of the attention of nutters who embarrass themselves and others of their group by sending nasty messages, so I've never really had to think before about how anonymous poison-message writers operate on the Web. ← ZScarpia 13:48, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like a static IP connected by ADLS line. -- ElComandanteChe^ταλκ 23:48, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I know who I'm going to turn to the next time I need a bit of geolocating doing. ← ZScarpia 00:43, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It mus be getting annoying...

But can you please weigh in [on this?] Justifications for deletion seem bogus to me. Guinsberg (talk) 02:32, 31 January 2012 (UTC) Please, have a look at the aforementioned link. All of my edits have been edited out under spurious arguments of slander and BLP, even though they all represent common criticism and pointed to RS material. It's also quite clear to me two editors -- Plot Spoiler and Jayjg -- are together in planning before hand to remove any critical assessment of ADL from the page. They are removing one each day, and I believe there's a plot to lure me into "edit warring". Guinsberg (talk) 21:46, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
