[WikiEN-l] Suicide note: appropriate response

[Jesse Alter]

Sure, there was a delay before an action was made, but I think that the 
action was fairly swift. The extreme opposite is the case of [[Brandon 
Vedas]] whose suicide was encouraged. I agree with what has already been 
said: that the IP addresses of posters should be available to sysops, 
and that if someone's life ever appears to be in danger, an effort 
should be taken to contact the police as near to the endangered as 
possible, as soon as possible.

Consider this a success. Someone's life was in danger, and action was 
taken quickly enough that they could receive local attention to protect 
their life.
