Quoting Steve Summit scs@eskimo.com:
Who advocates removal of otherwise-useful links because the linked-to page (or site) happens to contain something which is construed as being harassing of Wikipedians.
Let's be clear. Many of the links in question are harassing Wikipedians by any reasonable definition. What Michael Moore did was harassment pure and simple. Some of these cases that isn't what happened (for example Robert Black's blog had what almost amounted to a debunking of the MI5 claim). But many of the links we are dealing with are harassing and are done with the aim to make the lives of Wikipedia editors miserable so that they can be free to alter Wikipedia text to fit their ends. Let's not lose site of that.
I hate to get back to this, but what did Michael Moore do that harrassed a wikipedian?
