That's enough for me. Anyone who consistently refuses any rational discussion of his or her actions, disrupts the good work we're doing here, and personally abuses those who are doing it despite all efforts at compromise is simply more trouble than he or she is worth. Being "well-meaning" is no excuse (and I'm sure of that anyway). The /result/ of her actions is no different from an ordinary vandal: more work for those of us who actually want this project to succeed.
I have blocked both her IP and her user name. If Jimbo thinks I am too rash in this, he is of course welcome to unblock them. It's his project, and I'll respect that. But in my opinion the project is simply better of without Lir, and I see no reason to keep making excuses for reprehensible behavior.
I agree 100% and fully support banning this idiot. This is a project which aims to be productive, and Lir has been overwhelmingly destructive.
That said, a banned user who's still logged in can still move pages! Oops. I'll fix that.
