The Cunctator:
How about not blocking?
Toby:
An obvious solution to the problems of this weekend. But I don't think that you'll get the rest of Wikipedia to go along with your suggestion. Do you think that the other ideas will make things better?
Assuming people are allowed to continue blocking, could we modify the blocked IP log to list who's blocked when, and when unblocked (this would require breaking every 50 entries or so off onto an archive). Toby, Laurence, and I could not figure out at what time I blocked the .96 and .98 IPs. I had a range it could have been in, Toby had one also; we probably got within 15 minutes or so.
