I do not know much about the matter under reference. However, I found Tony a nice person: in the initial stages of my wiki-life, it was Tony whose encouragement by award of an exceptional new comer barnstar, had motivated me. I think people do not generally change: several other wikipedians may have felt his encouragements. However, during last 18 months, I feel that a number of 'events' are taking place in wikipedia, events which I am unable to articulate in words but only feel. --Bhadani 16:51, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
This article doesn't tell the story as I understand it. Most of the discussion that led to her action has been archived at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Giano. Having read this exchange (I found about it after she annoucned she was quitting), I would say a number of Admins asked her to end her participation in the ArbCom's private mailing list, which somehow mutated into her believing that either she had to choose between talking on IRC with her friends on the ArbCom, or participating on Misplaced Pages -- which was not her critics' intent. -- llywrch 18:33, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
