Yes, it was appropriate. The MONGO case was quite clear when we voted on it, and the vote was unanimous:
"A website that engages in the practice of publishing private information concerning the identities of Wikipedia participants will be regarded as an attack site whose pages should not be linked to from Wikipedia pages under any circumstances."
OK, so we not cannot link to the New York Times, after its recent magazine article.
Maybe I just missed it, but I didn't see an "outing" of any private information, other than that which was presumably given to the Times with the understanding that it could be printed. I suppose I am not fully in the loop on that, but... someone clarify for me if I missed something, please.
