Minor wording issue
Please may I suggest a minor word change for the remedy that states Alkiver is desysopped. I'm of personal belief that the words "stripped of his administrative privileges" is possibly a little heavy handed. How about something a little more neutral like "is to have his administrator privileges revoked". Just something for you to consider. Ryan Postlethwaite 15:25, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
