I was tending to a list of highly technical software on Wikipedia. One user came by and deleted a lot of the listings as they are not relevant enough, since they have no page on Wikipedia.
I contacted the user and pointed out that he removed some of the most used ones in the field, and those should not be regarded as not relevant. He clearly has no idea what the page is about.
He replied that he's got no other way to verify my claim unless I write a Wikipedia page for all of them.
Kindly, go fuck yourself.
Now I found out he also did the same in other computational chemistry lists. Another guy complained to him after he removed 17 items from a list and the response was that he'd have to write the 17 Wikipedia pages.
It's obvious that now, 5 years afterwards nobody wrote those pages and those useful list items are still unavailable.
Anyone who knows something about Wikipedia and how this should be reported? This guy is making those pages way less useful than they were.
