On second thought I am over-reacting a bit. When jossi said he would discussing it on the mailing list, I was shocked that he meant the en.WP mailing list. But his actual post there is more about linking to such documents from wikipedia as anything else. Which is something they should discuss. I had read the post before but for some reason it struck me as much more inappropriate intially than it does on a second reading.

The english Wikipedia continues it's downward spiral. There is no accountability for administrators, I was even blocked last month without even being told I was doing anything wrong beforehand. We really need to make certain the en.WP institutes a yearly re-confirmation process like we use at en.WS. Their current policies cannot be allowed to continue. . .
Now although the facts above are all true I have no wish see this sort of conversation here. Neither do I like the current conversation on their list.

I personally am refusing to take part in that discussion on that list, just as I would work to put the brakes on a conversation similar to my example. But others may feel differently so I feel you should be alerted to it.
