considering this 'non-user' has an edit history on Meta (most of his edits
have been to articles that are now deleted, however):

Also whenever I ban an IP on Meta the ban seems to auto-expire after a very
short time and does not seem to leave any mention of the un-banning in any

Wikipedia will forever be haunted by problems such as these, since, at
Anthere's request, I turned username blocking off by default. I'll turn
it on at meta. Are there any other wikis you want it enabled at, while
I'm at it? How about simple, wikibooks and wiktionary?
