Here is another reason why we need BLP reform very soon: the ongoing edit war over Rick Warren:

I was caught up in the edit war myself yesterday (New Year's Day) while on routine RC patrol using Huggle. I reverted two edits that appeared non-NPOV. After I reverted the edits, the user I warned was edit-warring. That user made sarcastic remarks toward me and others. Rick Warren's article was already semi-protected due to vandalism.
What a way to begin 2009, eh?
