This is a rough translation of User:Haham hanuka's userpage on Hebrew Wikipedia (he:משתמש:חכם חנוכה), where he has been banned, as done by me.

Here it is:


Haham hanukah is an internet troll that has taken upon him the goal of designing wikipedia in his way, during which he argues about it with all of the other wikipedians. Haham hanuka does not hesitate to hurt Wikipedia through fraud of search engines, and insertion of pornographic photos to the main page. All attempts to peacefully discuss a settlement with him failed, and therefore the other users have to treat him with a "strong hand".

This page contained, until September 30, 2004, a list of words whose purpose was to pull in random surfers from the internet. This list could've caused Wikipedia heavy damage, for search engines do not act with forgiveness towards attempts to cheat them. Because of this, he:משתמש:דוד שי was forced to clean out this page, and to lock it.

Coping/dealing with Haham hanuka

edit

In order to save the time of the wikipedians, one should treat Haham hanuka, in any costume he may choose, in this fashion:

  • Any petition/approach by him in talk pages should be ignored, because dialog with him has been discovered to be fruitless.
  • Any user that thinks Haham hanuka has hurt a page (article) in any way is allowed to revert it without a detailed explanation - "Hahan hanuka" is sufficient.
  • Any sysops are allowed to delete any page he creates using speedy deletion, without the need to hold a discussion and a poll on the subject. Still, it is suggested to treat him as described in he:ויקיפדיה:התמודדות עם טרולים (literally, Wikipedia:Dealing with trolls).

How to identify Haham hanuka - a friendly user guide

edit
  • Username: Often a paraphrase on a known user such as "bla bla". Sometimes the username hints that something is not right - "hidden user"
  • Subjects of interest: other than the obsessive interest in sex, there are also "legitimate" topics such as "colors", "numbers", or even "flags". The legitimate contributions are mostly broken translations from the English wiki. Occasionally he adds bland trivia information on unimportant TV shows and old movies.
  • Userpage: Empty or without any content, or with very little content ("every lense is a microscope")
  • Errors: spelling and grammar mistakes are typical
  • Usage of narrow legal arguments to allow (literally, to make kosher) inadequate content. "All of the facts are true and are linked to other articles." "Claudia Bombila is a porn star but there is a decision that women that begin with "C" are allowed, and she doesn't have a nude photo in the article."
  • Confronation with other users. His favorite disgraceful names: "idiot" and "liar."
