So I was doing a routine look at RC, and I came across your change to [[Battery (electrical)]].  You're right; it needs more work.  But I noticed that you de-wikilinked the various sizes: "AAA", "C", "D", etc.  I immediately thought "This looks like the work of TAR."  Sure enough, it was.  He was planning to have a page titled "C", about the uses of size C batteries?  What was it going to say?  Something like "C is a size of batteries that you will use when you cash in you 401K to buy a lifetime supply of batteries, along with guns and bullets, so you can spend the rest of your life holed up in Idaho waiting for the <s>zombie apocalypse</s> gun-grabbers"?  Did he not bother to look and see that there is already a "C" page, about the programming language?  Similarly for "D".  He apparently didn't bother to look&mdash;or did he?&mdash;and see that there was a page about the one-letter abbreviation for the Democratic party.

But "AAA" was most telling.  (Plain "AA" was just a redlink.)  His "AAA" link was to a page about, among other things, the American Automobile Association.  And who wrote that page?  TAR did.  He linked to that '''knowing full well that the page was about other things!!'''
