ITALIAN WIKI IS DAMAGED BY THE UNCIVIL VITO

Since Vito -an uncivil  Mafioso from Calabria nicknamed "Vituzzu" in the Wikis (indeed to understand the "bad to the bones" Mafioso admin:Vituzzu, please read his own OUTING MY EVILNESS  at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Vituzzu&diff=662072374&oldid=596379010 )- started to "dominate" with his group the Italian wiki in the early2010s, this Wikipedia written in the language of Dante is showing a crisis.

This fact is denounced by some journalists, that accuse Vituzzu of cheating & dishonesty (please read:

http://it.blastingnews.com/opinioni/2015/08/wikipedia-italia-esplode-la-protesta-contro-alcuni-amministratori-00507067.html ).     

For example, Giovanni Noferi of "BlastingNews" wrote that "The worst admin is Vituzzu, who is responsible of the erase of some articles without notification to the Wikipedia community and even of the creation of cheated votes...he does the same in other wikis, like the English wiki where he erases the articles he does not like (il personaggio più controverso risulta essere un amministratore che si presenta con lo pseudonimo di 'Vituzzu'. Quest'ultimo, tra l'altro, si è reso protagonista della cancellazione di una serie di voci, in alcuni casi senza chiedere il parere della comunità, in altri organizzando delle votazioni falsate. In sostanza, il modus operandi dell'amministratore pare essere il seguente: 'Se una pagina non mi piace perché le persone o le cose in essa citate mi stanno antipatiche, la elimino'. Come se non bastasse, 'Vituzzu' è noto per andare anche su enciclopedie in altre lingue (in particolare quella in inglese, generalmente ritenuta molto più completa di quella in italiano), per far cancellare le pagine straniere a lui sgradite)

Furthermore, in 2010 Italian wiki was growing very well and was for the first time the fourth in the list of Wikipedias, after the English, the German and the French.....but now it is behind many wikis: even the Philippine Waray wiki is ahead! And all this is EXACTLY in relation to Vito's "growth in importance" inside the Italian wiki.

Let's now do a small research on these facts, as it is written in the same English wiki:

"...On June 22, 2010, Italian wiki  passed 700,000 articles (Robie House – 700,000th article). On September 28, 2010, the Italian Wikipedia overtook the Polish Wikipedia, becoming the 4th largest edition, though in October 2010 the numbers on both Wikipedias were very close...On May 12, 2011, it passed 800,000 articles. On the same day, it overtook the Polish Wikipedia definitively. On March 12, 2012, it passed 900,000 articles.

In 2011 happened the 2011 Mass Blanking Protest :

(Main articles: DDL intercettazioni and DDL intercettazioni § Paragraph 29 )

From October 4 to October 6, 2011, following a decision adopted by volunteers (like Vituzzu) of the Italian Wikipedia community, a knowledge blackout was in place.....On January 22, 2013, it passed 1,000,000 articles........"

In March 2013 the growth of Italian wiki suddenly was reduced  (please read:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:The_sudden_decline_of_Italian_Wikipedia    and 

https://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/EditsRevertsIT.htm  ):

and now in 2015 it is only the 9th-largest Wikipedia as measured by the number of articles (after the English, Swedish, German, Dutch, French, Cebuano, Russian, and Waray-Waray editions).

The following it is a Wikimedia chart on the articles growth in the main wikis, showing how the it. wiki stopped bypassing others in 2010:

 


Now let's see what happened to Vito in those same years:

Until 2008/2009 Vito was a sysop/admin like many others, but in 2010 he started his "evil career" between the Italian Wikipedia managers ("curiously" exactly when the Italian wiki stopped to grow bypassing other wikis).

Vituzzu can be followed in his "growth to real power" inside the Italian wiki, reading the Wikiperle articles about him from 2011. This is the full group of WikiPerle  articles (in Italian) on Vito/Vituzzu: http://wikiperle.blogspot.com/search/label/Vituzzu  and these are the most interesting:

 I want to pinpoint that the fifth -related to Vigevanese (L'ora di Vigevanese)- showed that Vito was able to ban this experienced wikipedian user (

https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Utenti_problematici/Vigevanese )

, who wrote that "Came the day of the protest against the DDL 3491....the decision was obviously done by Vito. This protest had the characteristic that was done without opinion of an attorney experienced (Arrivò il giorno della protesta contro il DDL 3491. Ero on line quando iniziò la discussione per apporre il banner, che circa 15 pareri (il mio unico contrario) e circa 6 ore dopo fu reso visibile in ogni pagina. Suppongo che 15 voti siano sufficienti per una decisione del genere... Ovviamente presa da Vito. Questa protesta fu caratterizzata da assoluta mancanza di pareri legali in merito )"....In other words Vigevanese clearly denounced that Vito was one of the main "volunteers" who masterminded the so called "blanking protests" of those years, and that since then Vito/Vituzzu -with his Wikimafia group, related to some Marxist/leftist political opinions- is controlling the Italian Wikipedia!

Indeed after the ban of Vigevanese and the one of others, followed by the forced "withdrawal" of some experienced wikipedians (about these facts I am going to write more in the next months) , the Italian Wikipedia started to "lose momentum".....and now it is even behind the Philippine Waray Wikipedia....WHAT A SHAME!

Consequently it is necessary to write that this uncivil Vituzzu is damaging the Italian Wikipedia in a similar way to the damage done by the criminal Mafia to the Sicilia & Calabria regions......THEIR "MAFIA-BOSS" CONTROL SUFFOCATES THE HONEST PEOPLE!

Look for example how nobody dares now in 2015 to attack Vito's reelection. In former reelections he got many opinions/votes against (see for example : http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Amministratori/Riconferma_annuale/Vituzzu/3 ; http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Amministratori/Riconferma_annuale/Archivio/Archivio_riconferme_tacite/2012#Vituzzu ; http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Amministratori/Riconferma_annuale/Archivio/Archivio_riconferme_tacite/2013#Vituzzu ). But now in 2015 nobody -and I repeat nobody- has had the guts to vote against his reelection as sysop!!!! This uncivil Mafia Boss of the Wikimafia has suffocated even the simple opposition in the usual normal yearly vote for admins......WHAT A SHAME!!!!!!!

But it is also a shame that he is "allowed" to do all this in the Italian wikipedia: I want to repeat that many wikipedians wonder how it is possible that this uncivil admin is not removed from his powerful controlling position....and the answer is simple: he has "protectors" in the high levels of Italian Wikimedia/Wikipedia. Vituzzu does the "ducetto rosso"  (red dictator) in Italian Wikipedia also because receives full support from one of the historical leaders of it.wiki: Mario Benvenuti, nicknamed "M7".  Mario is also an admin and bureaucrat on Meta and a Stewart, he is a former CheckUser and now he is a member of the "Ombudsman Commision". This protector is pictured in a photo to the left of the "fat Queen of Italian Wikimedia" Frieda (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Iron_Bishop_Frieda_M7_Svante.JPG ). 

Finally, I want to pinpoint that I have been told he is very upset against me (and of course I am very delighted...). One of my friends wrote me this message in one of my blogs (

http://brunodam.blog.kataweb.it/2015/11/02/lo-stato-da-mar-veneziano-nei-balcani-occidentali/#comments ) :
"Hi Bruno....I see you hit very well the bastard rat named Vito...In the (IRC) chats are saying that he is very angry at you and that he is never sleeping because he is always connected to his computer in order to erase everything you write on any wiki....Congratulations! You have hit him very painfully in the center of his mind & soul! Only you have been able to damage his reputation at the highest levels of Wikipedia!...(Ciao Bruno, bell'articolo sullo Stato da mar. Comunque vedo che l'hai colpito bene in quel posto quel lurido e schifoso Vito, padroncino della wiki italiana. Dicono nelle IRC chat che sto ratto-chiavica di bastardo stia incazzatissimo contro di te e che non dorme vivendo sul suo computer per poterti bannare appena scrivi qualcosa su wiki. BRAVO! LO HAI CENTRATO IN PIENO! SOLO TU SEI RIUSCITO A SPUTTANARLO TRA CHI CONTA NELLA WIKI IN INGLESE! L'altro ieri ho letto il tuo blog inglese MANMER2015 ( http://manmer2.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html ) e devo dire che hai ragione in tutto quello che scrivi su di lui. Vito detto Vituzzu e' una cloaca di essere umano ma devo dirti che sono altrettanto schifosi quelli come M7, soprannominato Merda alla settima, che lo proteggono dentro la wikimedia italiana facendogli fare ogni sopruso e carognata da mafioso merdaiolo e rottinculopuzzolente come si comporta. Sono curioso di sapere quali sono i suoi possibili legami da militante marxistoide colla sinistra palestinese e quindi coll'ISIS e Al Kaeda. Aspetto con interesse. Tu sai chi sono io. Un saluto dalla nostra Modena (e complimenti per il tuo blog sugli aromuni e neolatini balcanici)"

Hope the "bastard rat Vito" -as my friend defines him- will soon disappear from Wikipedia: he has done a lot of damage!!!
