I once went to check my email at a public terminal and found myself logged
in to another person's account. If not for time constraints, I would have
emailed them a letter on their email about how important it is to protect a
person's privacy. If it was on wikipedia though, I don't think I would leave
the note on their talkpage--I would email them instead, because no one
deserves so much public humiliation for an honest mistake. One time is
enough to remind them, and I'm not going to take down their reputation due
to that one instance.
