Please examine his own comments in the linked previous AN/I: it was an incident report filed by Orderinchaos that apparently you have apparently not read. Ecoleetage explains there that on the basis of praise from editors like Keeper (see Keeper's barnstar/comments on my own userpage), Ecoleetage felt that his mentorship of me was no longer necessary. The false allegations in Orderinchao's "incident" report are disproved in the comments by both me and Ecoleetage throughout it; see Keeper's comments as well. Please see my own current talk page

1741:. If you look at this person's history, you will see this has been a huge problem for many months. May I ask politely that you also report them to admin, and especially if they have violated 3RR - so they will FINALLY be blocked. I have tried so hard to hold my temper, and am very tired of Admin letting people like this get away with the vandalism because they weren't caught within 5 minutes. I've warned them, others have also. It does no good to warn them, as they just wait 2 or 3 days and start up again. If you check the 1769:. The user is seemingly trying to make constructive edits, but s/he's not discussing his actions on the talk page (or our other forms of communication). Blocks on Knowledge (XXG) are only carried out as a preventative measure, to protect the encyclopaedia, and should never be used for purposes of punishment. My view on it is, he's a new editor trying to make his way and help out (s/he just needs some nudging in the right direction). I think I'll leave him/her a short message. Also, please remember not to 5745: 805: 137:

wouldn't that mean the death of Malware? I mean, 'Computer Security' is such a large topic, with a lot of theoretical articles, that the simple virii, trojan etc. articles would become a background thing. So maybe this is a better idea: promote the Security taskforce to that 'Computer Security' wikiproject, and make Malware a taskforce inside that. I think that would be a better arrangement, and keep it also let's Malware keeps it's "niche area" status. --

Sorry about that.

Thanks! We can always use more good writers. In terms of regular features, the discussion report is I think the most important one that could use help. Drilnoth writes it off and on, but not on a regular basis (and it's one that's conducive to collaboration), so you could sign up for that beat if

You had questioned why the software called it vandalism; I was answering your questions. Sadly, I won't return "founder" there, as it looks bad.
