What, may I ask, did he claim was the meaning of "exicornt"? When I read your e-mail, I just couldn't stop laughing.
I've seen all sorts of weird vandals, as well as people trying to plant false information, but the idea that somebody would invent a word and claim it was real, especially something as ludicrous sounding as "exicornt" (I don't believe any real English words end in -ornt, and not many end in -rnt).

Hoi, On the en:Wiktionary there is a bozo who thinks it funny to create articles with titles like "exicornt switch". This is a non existing word. The guy insists to create this article and uses any means to get his way. I have been told that this guy is a user on the en.wikipedia as well. As the frustration of this guy is getting to a level where AOL is being blocked, I would like to know if we can cooperate and do something about this vandal.
It is a daily annoyance. :(
