A fresh round of invective in late June 2014, led by Scott Martin, an administrator who still enjoys the community's confidence (that includes yours) Resigned adminship and retired in August, I see now—that's good for the project. Tony (talk) 14:26, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• "Pretentious babble"—I didn't appear to provide the answer he wanted.
• "You wouldn't know an attack if it hit you in the backside."—Scott Martin is a crusader for our
  civility policy
  .
• "Rubbish"—Scott Martin shows skills that come in useful as an admin who deals skillfully with the editing community.
• "Utter codswallop. You wouldn't know an 'attack' if it hit you in the backside".—Scott Martin has a distinctive argumentative style.
• "I didnt think my opinion of you could actually get lower"—Scott Martin
• "buzz off"—Scott Martin has the potential to be succinct, too.
• "get over yourself"—Scott Martin has a talent for aggressive, off-hand comments that belittle the recipient. This must come in very handy in his capacity as an admin dealing with the editorial community (see
  WP:ADMIN
  ).

Scott Martin then trots back and forth between en.WP and the attack site [wikipediocracy.com Wikipediocracy]—the one you all support through your silence on its use by your fellow editors.

• "a complete tosspot", he starts.
• "dazzling ignorance ... or perhaps contempt", Scott Martin accuses there.
• "you're an idiot"; "What a pathetic attempt at selective quoting and paraphrasing to push your own interpretation of events."—Scott Martin accuses others on the Wikipediocracy thread who don't agree with his tirade.
• "poor little Tony"—Scott Martin on Wikipediocracy.
• "All I'm getting is a big picture of Tony's bum on the horizon."—Scott Martin moves into sexualised language on Wikipediocracy.
• "you risible, self-interested little toad"—Scott Martin's invective becomes virtuosic on Wikipediocracy.
• "Good lord, what a pretentious little fool. You can practically hear his butthole over-tightening from here."—Scott Martin's strategy catches on among others at Wikipediocracy, which is now working towards violent imagery.
• "whining ... idiocy".
• "fuck Tony1"
• "ridiculous pretention ... you can practically hear the pole squeaking. He could shave himself using a dental mirror."
• "Special Snowflake"
• "You haven't got a bloody clue."—Scott Martin comes back to ensure the tone is sustained. See below.
• "The pole is stuck in the fundament. It's been joined by his head, so much so that he can see his own head when he sticks a mirror in his mouth."—Someone at Wikipediocracy is adding violence to the sexualised insults.
• "Before I thought he was merely clueless. Now I think he is, not well."
• "utterly rephrehensible. I say that without an ounce of vitriol"—Scott Martin returns with questionable logic.
• "hissy fit ... sheer arrogance"
• "Tony1 is a far bigger asshole than he originally appeared"
• "complete bully like Tony1"
• "Tony1 is oftentimes a jerk"
