Gotta say it: just because Lionelt says he's a Democrat (and says he's black and likewise possibly claims other unexpected attributes) does not mean he is any of them. His claimed political affiliation cannot be disproved. His appearance can be whatever he says it is. It would be, as you've demonstrated in your message, a considerable advantage for someone with his editing record to bullshit thus. And Wikipedia is no stranger to such mendacity, which is partly why I'm suspicions. Mostly, though, well - just look at his activity here. The editing record. The projects enthusiastically pursued and recruited for. Occasionally (like just now) I do come across him and his lot but I try to stay well clear. I mean, at least Conservapedia is a laugh....

 WikiProject AFC is holding a one month long Backlog Elimination Drive! Awards will be given out for all reviewers participating in the drive in the form of barnstars at the end of the drive. A new version of our AfC helper script is released! It includes many bug fixes, new improvements and features, code cleanup, and more page cleanups. If you want to see a full list of changes, go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Helper script/Development page. Please report bugs and feature requests there, too! Thanks. Delivered at 12:53, 19 June 2013 (UTC) by EdwardsBot (talk), on behalf of WikiProject AFC Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotWe are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page. IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation. Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. Changes to SuggestBot's suggestionsWe have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping! If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page.
