I'm talking to some Tor people, trying to explain to them why Tor servers are so often blocked from editing wikipedia. I'd like to collect some information (horror stories) about it...
Jimbo, one Tor horror story was [[User:Enviroknot]], who also edited as [[User:KaintheScion]] and [[User:ElKabong]], He used Tor to post anonymous Islamophobic abuse of Muslim editors, and managed to turn Islam-related talk pages into toxic waste dumps for weeks before the arbcom banned him, and before we had blocked all the open proxies we knew he was using. At least in part because of him, one Muslim editor started responding in kind, and is now up before the arbcom for it, so the fallout isn't over yet.
