Apparently someone was terrified of the idea that someone, somewhere, might also get a 10-year badge? I don't know.

My name is John Henry DeJong, I commonly go by John Henry in public life. I own and operate several websites which I included here in the earlier version of my bio because they help establish my credibility in certain subjects.

Apparently some bloke in the UK thought it appropriate to label this "advertising" and vandalize/delete my entire user page, which is a pretty rude and obnoxious thing to do.

I'm beginning to understand why so many people I trust have recommended against returning as an editor here. *shrug* so much for the idea of a publicly-sourced compendium of information, eh? It seems that in the time since I was active here, the place has been taken over by a closed circle. Since the fact that it wasn't a closed circle was why I decided to start editing in the first place, and that is obviously no longer the case and my input is clearly not welcome or wanted here, I anticipate that this page, too, will be deleted by some neckbeard with delusions of power.

I guess if anyone wants to know who I am and how to get in touch, they'll have to google it. Enjoy your bizarre and counter-productive power trip, and let me know if and when Wikipedia gets back to founding principles. I'll be happy to add my efforts when I'm not treated something that someone stepped in simply because I include the URLs to my sites in my user bio - a bio that, incidentally, sat here just fine from September 2005 to April 2015 before one delusional twit decided it was "unambiguous advertising" and unilaterally nuked it.

Ironically this proves the need for quality control among editors at Wikipedia. Problem is, it appears to be precisely the editors who most need to be removed that have taken control. Have at it, kids; there are much bigger worlds than these. -- lowgenius -- My Talk Page 00:00, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
