Jimmy Wales Ooooookay. You asked me to do it, and I did it. Now you ask me to undo it, and I am undoing it.
Score! I claim a pundit victory. Admittedly partial, since it happened way faster than I thought it would - "Predictions are hard, especially when they're about the future." (attrib Yogi Berra) If anything, I wasn't cynical enough.
Now we'll all see if there's another act to this drama ...

What a sad mistake. Just because someone comes up with a dumb idea that doesn't make them a troll.

It does when they blatantly say they're doing it to stir up material for a column.

I must have missed where he said that. He said "I may write a column on this eventually, so I'm taking notes..." Is that what you're referring to?

I assume you didn't read his last article. Coming in here to stir up article material is blatant trolling.

Wow, incredible claim of victory. What happened was nothing at all like you predicted. Or did I miss the post where you said that I would reblock Brandt *upon his request*?
