[WikiEN-l] Redress against personal attack?

[Fred Bauder]

There are no untouchables, however, this incident will be looked at  
in the context of all of Ambi's behavior, which means that it is  
unlikely that we will dump all over someone who generally acts in a  
responsible way. It is possible for a Wikipedia user to destroy their  
reputation by repeatedly trading on it in an inappropriate way, but  
it takes a series of incidents.

As to a channel of redress, begin with Ambi. As to whether further  
steps are appropriate, use common sense. Are we dealing with an  
important problem or an isolated incident?
