Interesting. That led me to rummage a little, and apparently this is not
the first time Ottava Rima has had trouble meeting project behavioral
norms. He's currently under a 1-year ban on the English Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Ottava_Rima_restrictions
As part of that, Jayron32 describes what he sees as "Ottava Rima's
standard MO": "He starts an entirely inappropriate discussion, and as
soon as other editors call him on it, he starts to give 'official
warnings' and all sorts of other inappropriate responses."
Given that this is recurring drama-creating behavior, perhaps we can
move on to the "ignore" stage of WP:RBI.
