The true Hoary revealed!
Hoary is:
:the personification of everything that is wrong with wiki and the internet in general, one person who has a bee in his bonnet about something and won't listen to consenus and people with more experience and knowledge (as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AManual_of_Style_%28Japan-related_articles%29&diff=119726418&oldid=119717280 divulged] by Brettr on 2 April 2007)
Hoary also instigated a [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Scott_MacDonald&curid=17234010&diff=331828633&oldid=331826671 shameful thread] — according to Scott MacDonald, the worst example of myopia, and process related, drama-mongering I've seen (as of 15 December 2009).
Hoary, prude or prick?
:im sory hoary, but it seems as though you are not a casual reader, you use the word bane, and imply, evasion, and much more, you sound like a prude. It's pre-grads like you that want to sound fancy and therefore destroy the quality of wikipedia because nobody can actually connect to what is on the site. Wikipedia is useless thanks to pricks like you. Thanks.

Just in it for the money?
:There is now evidence that has been gathered of payments made to you for your Wikipedia editing services. This evidence will shortly be released in a public forum. ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Hoary&diff=prev&oldid=436079877 wrote] Lorifredrics on 25 June 2011)
(Can you find this release in any public forum? Even after one month I could not, and I therefore asked Lorifredrics. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ALorifredrics&action=historysubmit&diff=442104416&oldid=441997036 Her fast response.])
Brain-damaged? An IP [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Ebonics&diff=next&oldid=346919433 writes]:
:Ernie Smith writes
:In the neuroscience area of medicine there is a brain injury or disease called subdural hematoma. According to Weiner and Goetz, one of the clinical manifestations of this brain injury or disease is "a depressed level of consciousness" (1994:45). Weiner and Goetz indicate that the "depressed level of consciousness can occur before focal findings, and may have trivial or no trauma history." There are two types of subdural hematomas, the acute subdural hematoma and the chronic subdural hematoma, and they are classified according to the interval of time that occurs between the instance of a head injury and the development of clinical manifestations. Of these two subdural hematomas, the chronic subdural hematoma: "is more common in patients with cerebral atrophy (i.e. the elderly and alcoholism)" (Weiner and Goetz 1994:223). Also, however, studies of the prolonged use of cocaine have produced irrefutable evidence of the tremendous brain damage (cerebral atrophy) that can occur from such use. This suggests that ‘alcoholism’ is not the only form of 'substance abuse’ that can be associated with cerebral atrophy as the underlying mechanism of chronic subdural hematoma.
:I have initiated my response to User Hoary’s critique with a discussion of subdural hematoma because I suspect that therein lies the etiology of his or her patently deficient critical thinking skills.

Lower than a primate? An IP [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Ebonics&diff=next&oldid=347459353 writes]:
:Ernie Smith writes
:When I submitted my previous contribution to Wikipedia Talk Ebonics I was under the impression that an anthropoid above the level of Homo fernus or pithecanthropus erectus was inviting an edit colloquy pertaining to the subject - Ebonics. It appears that what I am in fact confronted with here is something less that a primate. I believe more akin to the Canis familiaris Or Canis lupus. It is clear that what User Hoary lacks intellectual competence he/she certainly makes up in frothing growls, snarls, barks and yelps.
A sex pervert? An IP [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Ebonics&diff=next&oldid=349483482 writes]:
:Ernie Smith writes to the Wikipdiad Web managers
:[. . .] This Hoary person appears get his or her orgasmic jollies making asinine slurs and commentary that does not address the subject of Ebonics nor the inconsistencies in his or her logic. I have verbally cleaned this person Hoary’s clock and yet this person Hoary keeps coming back for more. Clearly this person Hoary loves the sadomasochistic verbal exchanges that he or she has invited and is having with me.
Another editor's lacky (sic), sponsor, or "bitch"?
:MarcusBritish [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AMarcusBritish&action=historysubmit&diff=462373204&oldid=462366009 suggests] all three.

A dimwitted amateur, out of his depth?
:[Hoary's] bias glows like Vegas neon to 50.47.103.17, who [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ABiographies_of_living_persons%2FNoticeboard&diff=504886044&oldid=504874390 adds]: I don't think you're too bright.

A paid stooge for the liberal agenda of ([http://www.fastcompany.com/59260/why-man-smiling self-confessed "objectivist"]) Jimbo Wales?
:An editor who's "engaging in capitalism", an "obvious paid-to-edit [account]"? 75.70.221.14 explains [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ATed_Nugent&diff=597723030&oldid=597668189 here] that Jimbo Wales "hires a number of editors to reinforce his liberal viewpoints on Wikipedia and ascribe them to neutrality"; among these are Hoary, who has an "obvious POV pushing [agenda]".
A perpetrator of frivolity and libel?
:"From what I've seen of hoary and his both frivolous as well as libelous edits the past several years, even exhibited in the discussions," [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ANewyorkbrad&diff=630366396&oldid=630278750 says] Tfortrouble (contributions), Hoary should be banned from editing the article about one "continued public persona".

What I've been up to here
Perhaps some people would like to know what I've been up to here.
One day, I might start to do something or other systematically. But as it is I enjoy working on whatever I please.

Articles I've started include:

==photo mags==
==photo awards==
==photographic associations==
==photo hardware==
==museums and galleries==
==other photography==
==artists, illustrators, etc==
==music==

Many of them are extremely feeble by any standard. Some are mere stubs. Sometimes I start an article about something of which I know little, hoping that better-informed people will make intelligent additions to it. When I look for information about somebody and find that his or her name has been appropriated for an article on somebody unrelated, irritation often impels me to start an article on the person I wanted to read about. I don't think of these as "my" articles (and some are very different from and much better than the state they were in when I last touched them); some are of much less interest to me than are other articles to which I've contributed but which I didn't start. The list is here just for my amusement and perhaps for yours too. And in the same spirit:

Image:Exceptional_newcomer.jpg|Hoary is an exceptional newcomer, according to User:Chmod007 and User:JRM. Hoary has not even started his/her user page, and has already jumped into the every-day maintenance of Wikipedia by listing an article (a joke) on VfD! Excellent start, and you show a great desire to learn more. To encourage this, I hereby present you with the newly-invented Exceptional Newcomer award. You may now use this award image on your user page, talk page or where-ever you like.
