The poor woman clearly didn't know the difference between a URL and a web page. Most likely the same can be said about the IWF staff member who listed those two pages.
The colatteral damage will mostly go away if they block the image itself instead of the text.
Perhaps we should send the the ~3 URLs they need for the images, and tell them that if they want the image to stay blocked they should block those. Then change the knams rr IP for text, and refuse to respond to en.wikipedia.org DNS requests from the proxy boxes, if we can.
