Point taken.  I did mean to say, on general principles, something
along the lines of "if this is true, I can't say I'm surprised".

But having skimmed [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Durova]],
it appears that the relevant particulars *are* true.
(By "relevant particulars" I mean: that zeal against Wikipedia
Review and its suspected supporters and sycophants had become
excessive, and was being used to justify clearly unjust actions.)
