Even though Wisconcom was in explicit opposition to [[ProleWiki:Principles|our principles]], we allowed his presence in the project, just dealing with a few problems here and then. He began engaging with others in the ProleWiki community in Lemmygrad, and his interactions [https://lemmygrad.ml/u/Wisconcom/view/Overview/sort/New/page/1 can be seen here]. He basically was an anti-China militant in his Lemmygrad presence, and eventually created a Hoxhaism community dedicated almost exclusively to promote anti-China propaganda. This behavior would eventually render him a ban in Lemmygrad. Still, even though we have a close relationship with the Lemmygrad community and administration, we decided not to ban Wisconcom inside ProleWiki, provided that he improves his behavior. | Even though Wisconcom was in explicit opposition to [[ProleWiki:Principles|our principles]], we allowed his presence in the project, just dealing with a few problems here and then.

Wisconcom in fact improved his behavior over time, and his commitment to the project would render him a position as a member of ProleWiki's agitprop commission. However, we would still notice small conflicts here and there, but they would be resolved in a short time. Until in 16 October, Wisconcom deleted a massive portion of the article on the [[Communist Party of Peru – Shining Path|Shining Path]] without consultation, claiming the article was anti-communist in tone because the Shining Path was described as terrorists, but terrorism in this context is merely a description of a tactic, such as [https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1902/sep/01.htm discussed by Lenin here]. It appears Wisconcom showed sympathy to the Shining Path merely because they were anti-China, because they were also fiercely anti-Albanian, and this did not bother Wisconcom at all. | Wisconcom in fact improved his behavior over time, and his commitment to the project would render him a position as a member of ProleWiki's agitprop commission.

Besides that, he routinely deleted his own messages, which made communication and accountability very difficult. | ||
After being criticized both inside the Discord server and in his private messages after engaging personally with me, Wisconcom decided to leave ProleWiki on his own, and added a "RETIRED" in his profile on ProleWiki. Even though Wisconcom was difficult to work with, the editors lamented this decision, but we eventually accepted it. Since he left, he temporarily changed his social media profile to display he was a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, and even [[:File:Wisconcom flag2.png#filehistory|changed his profile picture to the Shining Path hammer and sickle]]. for reasons unknown. A few days later, Wisconcom [[Topic:X5dlyp67d28sfwgz|reached to my talk page]] ''demanding'' that we give him positions inside the wiki, and that we allow so-called "anti-revisionists" inside the wiki. His demands were denied, and since then we immediately ended our relationship with him, and decided to block him on ProleWiki. We have been extremely permissive with Wisconcom, and they showed they are not to be trusted, mainly because of his unstable and suspicious behavior. | After being criticized both inside the Discord server and in his private messages after engaging personally with me, Wisconcom decided to leave ProleWiki on his own, and added a "RETIRED" in his profile on ProleWiki.

He could be reinstated in the future, if agreed by other editors, but considering [https://twitter.com/wisconcom his Twitter profile], he doesn't seem much interested in having a dialogue with any of us. | He could be reinstated in the future, if agreed by other editors, but considering [https://twitter.com/wisconcom his Twitter profile], he doesn't seem much interested in having a dialogue with any of us. | ||
