MediaWiki bug 550:
http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=550
At present it's got a few suggested patches, it's working out what's
the best one to implement in terms of its social effects.
(cc to wikitech-l - what's the current developers' view on a good
solution to 550? Are we anywhere near having one implemented?)
As for the block itself, that's obviously collateral damage, and if
you can tell us the IP it should be promptly unblocked. What was the
text of the block message?
- d.
