Would it be possible to block Brandt's article from being scraped from the search engines in the main site robots.txt file? It would help alleviate the current conflict and hopefully remove the remaining issues between Daniel and Wikipedia. After this final issue is addressed, I feel we have done all we can to correct Daniel's bio and address his concerns, that being said, there is a limit on how far good samaritanism should go, and I think we have done about all we can here. The rest is up to Daniel.
This idea has actually been suggested on wikien-l and met with a mostly positive response - selective noindexing of some living biographies. This would actually cut down the quantity of OTRS complaints tremendously. The response was not unanimous, I must note.
