I've rebanned Plautus satire from Wikipedia, and intend that he should remain so. It's not a matter for mediation anymore, it's a matter for arbitration. Additionally, in light of his behavior last night in sending so many pointless messages to the mailing list, I've banned him from the mailing list.

As to his numerous inquiries about blah blah blah blah blah blah, my only response is that I don't really care.

Here's a forum for him to post about his case. Knock yourself out, Plautus. http://boards.wikimedia.org/viewforum.php?f=2

Here's where I am this morning: excited, thrilled, on top of the world. Wikipedia is growing fast, we're getting more and more attention for what we're doing, we're maturing as a community, and we have a lot of exciting things going on. Print Wikipedia! Money in the bank for more servers to deal with our growing popularity! Continued strong traffic growth! An amazing group of contributors who are doing amazing things every day.

I spent half the day yesterday, and nearly half the day (so far) today dealing with Plautus satire. That's ridiculous. I was interviewed by The Economist yesterday. I talked to people at Yahoo about using our content. I talked to people at a major publisher about publishing our content. I talked to a columnist from the Boston Herald. And the other half of my day, I dealt with Plautus.

I'm done.
