First, what a horrid thing to say. Second, by Wikipedia-affiliated he meant
the #wikipedia-* channels on IRC. That is where Mark's jurisdiction is, and
that is what the guidelines are for. I do not see what the problem with his
statement was.

Mark,
There are Wikimedia affiliated IRC channels on Freenode.
Thanks for getting even the basics wrong.
Thanks,

Hello everyone.
As a few of you may know, about 5 weeks ago some new guidelines were
put into place on meta for the IRC channel #wikipedia. At the same
time, the operator access list for the channel was emptied and started
from scratch.
The changes were quite unpopular, to say the least. A discussion
thread was started about them on the foundation-l mailing list, but
probably should have been started on wikipedia-l.
Now that I am back from my holiday, I have opened a review discussion
about the guidelines on their talk page on meta, which you can access
at the follow URL:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:IRC_guidelines/wikipedia
I would very much appreciate the input there of all people who have an
interest in the guidelines, and indeed any users of the
Wikipedia-affiliated IRC channels on Freenode.
