The person who did that got upset because he was outed, and he reacted badly, which he later admitted. It was a very human response, and it's unfair to keep on using it as a weapon.
What we are talking about is not at all simple. It takes place in a context of considerable conflict of interest and in the realities of interpersonal and group dynamics that no amount of good faith can cover. You and MONGO and Jayjg spend a lot of time attacking WR, to the point where it seems to me that you don't care about the side effects of your campaign against them.
Hardly. I generally ignore WR, and have paid little attention to it for many months now. It happens to come up in discussions here, but keep in mind, the *purpose* of WR is to be a place where ex-Wikipedians can harass Wikipedians. On the other hand, the purpose of Wikipedia is not to make life difficult for WR denizens, nor is that the reason for wikien-l. WR members are obsessed with Wikipedia and their particular objects of hate in Wikipedia, so they imagine the reverse is true; rest assured, it is not.
