Jimbo: what happened to the server this morning?
I couldn't reach it either. Pinging bomis.com was alright, pinginging wikipedia.com gave me a timeout:-( -- WojPob
The same with me. Kpjas
Hey, while we're asking, what's up with the meta.wikipedia.com? First I couldn't reach it, and now it's giving me a weird string of MySQL errors. --Stephen Gilbert
Jimbo tells me he has been moving servers, which explains it. Once things start working correctly again, things should be back to normal (er, I really did mean to say something informative there...). --LMS
Hey Jimmy, I'm working my way through the list at Wikipedians and moving user pages into the user space. I notice you have an old version of your page at Jimbo Wales. Is there any content from that page you want saved? --Stephen Gilbert
I wonder if you have been keeping an eye on the Aria Giovanni talk webpage. The situation there is out of control.
Matters have deteriorated to a highly abusive level over a website link. Of special concern is the general conduct and attitude of someone called NetEsq, who claims in his details to be a lawyer.
He has repeatedly abused anyone who opposed the idea of the website link with such tactics as net misettiquete ( eg the use of the word 'you' in capitals and bold to emphasise shouting), a poor grasp of history, the unrepentant use of such termsas Nazi, out of context quotes and attempted alienation ("only YOU opppose it").
Regardless of the rights and wrongs of his beliefs, it is very advisable to bring this most unruly and arrogant person into line.
Given that your name is on the list of persons who can ban users, I thought it advisable to bring this to your attention, before it leads to persons leaving the wikipedia - something likely to stroke Netesq's already aggressive ego.
In your case, it should be added that your name has already been mentioned by Netesq. For that reason alone, you may want to step in.
