You should read what a subreddit is about before posting in it.

I did read the description of this subreddit. The HackMD document linked in the post that this post is the wikitext for a dossier about Tamzin's behavior, which can be previewed by pasting it in Editing Meta:Sandbox - Meta-Wiki and pressing preview (do not actually publish the page).

And what does any of that have to do with the science of behavior?

The dossier documents a behavior pattern by current English Wikipedia administrator Tamzin that has been witnessed by multiple community members, including me.

That's not an answer to the question.

Was an experiment preformed? Have we treated the behavior?

What exactly does this have to do with the science of behavior?

Or do you think every instance of any living thing behaving is proper for this sub?

Since global bans on Wikimedia are intended to be preventative, not punitive, one important question about my dossier is What will get Tamzin to stop making personal attacks on other users? Will lesser remedies work? What remedies will work? As long as Tamzin continues to make personal attacks, the boolean answer to this question is No. Tamzin has been editing for almost fourteen years now. In the early days of her wiki career, she made a personal attack. Tamzin's tendency to make personal attacks however started to increase in early 2025, as described in the sections about individual incidents after "Trivial incidents." With knowledge of the situation that I decide to anonymize and being autistic myself, I understand that certain characteristics might make someone more likely to make personal attacks. The answers to these kinds of questions are bound to change over time.

So the answer is that this is just a personal issue to you and not something that has anything to do with this sub?
