I'm thinking the reference was to this edit:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Bad_Jokes_and_Other_Deleted_Nonsense&diff=135102810&oldid=135098180

from WT:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense.  Deleting Thwinchester's
drivel from his user talk page is perfectly justifiable.  Hacking away
IvanKnight69's comments from WT:BJAODN rather than responding to them and
telling him what was wrong with what he was saying is not quite as clearly
the right thing to do.
