For the edification of the rest of us, what is this regarding?

My two cents - What node did was stupid and immature, and he should have known that blanking an entire encyclopedia was not the way to offer his concerns. He should have posted to the list, on meta, or somewhere else that he thought the entire encyclopedia might be copyvio. It could have been discussed, and bot rollbacks wouldn't have been necessary. As node has, to say the least, been a source of difficulty and disruption in the past, I can see why there's a significant movement to throw the book at him. My feeling is that a project-wide ban is a very, very big step, though, and should be reserved. I think node is pretty clearly on warning here, and that further displays of such immaturity will pretty much not be tolerated by anyone. -Snowspinner On Sep 22, 2004, at 12:28 AM, Angela_ wrote: _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l(a)Wikipedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l

Phil Sandifer a écrit: I strongly agree with snowspinner on this. Node certainly needs a strong warning (which should include a temporary block of course), he needs to discuss with people on this, but that does not justify imho, a ban on all projects. I think blocking someone on all projects requires either * approval from all projects (or at least most... ) * or an offense much bigger than this one. This does not mean I do not consider what he did was not bad, but that such a project-wide decision does not scale the fault. A project wide banning should only be made for an offense damaging the whole project. This was not the case. anthere > On Sep 22, 2004, at 12:28 AM, Angela_ wrote: > >> On Tue, 21 Sep 2004 22:11:47 -0700, Matt Brown >> <morven(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> For the edification of the rest of us, what is this regarding? >> >> >> >> Basically, an anon IP replaced practically every page on the toki pona >> Wikipedia with a copyright violation template because he didn't >> believe the language itself was GFDL.
