Michael, I have to say that I find your comment
offensive. NOBODY expects
to be denigrated on Wikipedia, and being "privileged" is no excuse for
doing so. This is EXACTLY the kind of behaviour this list was created to
try to modify.

I'm actually on this list :) and was just thinking out loud as well to
see if I could understand the incident since I was seeing pretty strong
claims (both "Wikipedia is sexist" and "this is journalism run
amok.") For
instance, people continue to report that Filipacchi is a reporter for NYT
when these were op-eds.

And nobody, of course, addresses the class issue: that Filipacchi is a
privileged scion of one of the largest global publishing companies, and is
not accustomed to having her own self-interest questioned in a classic
WP:BOOMERANG fashion by vulgar Wikipedians nobody who MATTERS ever heard
of.
