===How to get around those pesky and unfair Wikipedia policies and actions — a primer for fringe editors===
1. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Oxfordian_theory_of_Shakespeare_authorship&diff=prev&oldid=302480217 7/16/2009] Smatprt created a new Oxfordian article.
2. On 3/24/2010 the article [[Oxfordian theory: Parallels with Shakespeare’s plays]] was deleted as a result of this afd: [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oxfordian theory: Parallels with Shakespeare's plays]] because of "Inherent violation of [[WP:NPOV]]: extreme undue weight given to a fringe theory."
3. That same day Smatprt [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oxfordian_theory_of_Shakespeare_authorship&diff=prev&oldid=351725450 merged the entire article back in with the Oxfordian article "as per talk at merge discussion". Huh??? When is an AfD a "merge discussion"?
4. On 6/18/2010 he [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AShakespeare_authorship_question%2Fsandbox_3&action=historysubmit&diff=368709587&oldid=368708950 moved the material] into another SAQ sandbox article.
5. On 9/9/2010, after being laundered through the sandbox, he then [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oxfordian_Theory_-_Parallels_with_Shakespeare%27s_Plays&oldid=383757496 forked the material] into a new article, [[Oxfordian Theory - Parallels with Shakespeare's Plays]], replaced the colon with a dash, added two grafs of disclaimer for "NPOV" purposes and 17 external links to Oxfordian Web sites.
6. He then again [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oxfordian_theory_of_Shakespeare_authorship&action=historysubmit&diff=383967018&oldid=383732090 deletes the material from the main article] and links the two.
''Voilà!'' Patience pays off handsomely! No muss, no fuss, all the admins and editors are all looking elsewhere, and virtually the exact same article is now on Wikipedia! So much for WP process.
===Smatprt's "outing" charge===
