Indeed. I'm not sure if Andrew has the date down right, but some time in 2006 seems correct. I remember feeling impressed around the beginning of '06 that I was still seeing new admins and editors who shared the same philosophy and principles of Wikipedians I remember from when I started out in '03/'04, but I can't recall having a similar experience since then.
The beginning of 2006 was the Userbox Wars, where Kelly Martin got a ridiculous RFC against her for ... removing blatantly copyright-violating "fair use" images from userboxes.
There were ridiculous things before then. I think the community weathers such things quite well. Individuals may encounter problems but the show goes on.
