Wim Crusio
This person has Assburgers Syndrome, so you can't say anything bad! :-( Be aware of that, you insensitive fuck. |
Wim Crusio (born 20 December 1954 in Bergen op Zoom; legally Wilhelmus Elisabeth Crusio), currently mainly known by his Wikipedia pseudonym Randykitty, is the most recent incarnation of the Robert Clark Young syndrome on Wikipedia. Resident in France, he is a Dutch-born Assburger who has written autobiographies of himself in no less than 16 Wikipedia language editions (some of them are tagged as poor machine translations and are obviously written by someone who doesn't understand a single word of the language in question), deceptively (or so he thought) using multiple accounts, including "Crusio", "Guillaume2303", "Randykitty", "Oozepam" and "UB1Talence". When he is not engaged in self-promotion, he acts as the archetypal Bureaucratic Fuck. He claims to be a scientist, but as he spends every waking moment promoting himself or being a total dick on Wikipedia, his science is probably of the low quality that is so typical of French science. Ironically, despite his rampant self-promotion, he oftens attempts to delete articles on others on grounds of lacking notability or petty rules. Like Robert Clark Young, he also often adds negative material to biographies of his IRL enemies.
According to a review at Wikipediocracy, Crusio uses Wikipedia as "a LinkedIn and free autobiography publisher", "to advertise his family's business", "to attack people he doesn't like, such as the author of The Gene Illusion", and is otherwise a "category and template gnome of little real value to Wikipedia", concluding with the question "Apart from passing an RFA, how is Crusio different from Qworty?" The review also demonstrates how Crusio went to great lengths to disguise his sockpuppetry and self-promotion.
Adminship
In 2014, Crusio nominated himself as a Wikipedia admin. Contrary to Wikipedia rules, he refused to disclose his previous Wikipedia accounts. He did mention that he had other accounts in the past, but refused to tell their names and did also not mention the full extent of his alternate accounts, notably sockpuppets on other language versions used to write (often machine translated) autobiographies of himself. Most likely, Crusio still uses a multitude of sockpuppets. He also failed to mention the small issue of his 16 Wikipedia autobiographies, instead – like Robert Clark Young – portraying himself as tough on autobiographers.
Hypocrisy
