It is great to see that Moulton has been blocked, his efforts have clearly been disruptive in my opinion. I've seen how he's moved from project to project (not just Wikipedia and Wikiversity) as he's been blocked. John Vandenberg makes some good points but, whilst I've not being following every twist and turn of this story, I can't say I'd like to see Moulton editing anytime soon. I have to take JWSchmidt's comments with a pinch of salt considering his clear negative attitude towards Wikipedia editors in general. It is a great shame that he and perhaps others have allowed Wikiversity to be distracted from writing true educational resources by "studying" the behaviour of Wikipedia editors. 350-018 Exam I look forward to seeing users refocus their efforts in more productive ways as a result of this block. I thank Jimbo for taking this action. "clear negative attitude towards Wikipedia editors in general" <-- I am a Wikipedian and I think the vast majority of Wikipedians are great. I do object to attempts to apply Wikipedia methods to Wikiversity when they do not suit this project. "The first major internal conflict and ban is always tough." But, don't cry. Now that it's done, every time afterward 640-801 Exam is going to feel good, even amazingly pleasurable. Sounds like Wikiversity just got its cherry popped. It doesn't make me "feel good" to see a contributer blocked, as I and others have stated above. I see that there were many chances, and warnings, to participate in learning projects in a civil manner before any action was taken. Suggesting that this block would give someone pleasure might be construed by some as not assuming good faith, esp. given the expressions of regret posted in this thread which clearly indicate otherwise. Adambro, if Moulton had the level of power as say, Jpgordon, and you were a nobody, then you would be blocked for incivility towards Jpgordon, if Jpgordon wasn't blocked, but if you said you would be glad if he was. And, Moulton or JWSchmidt didn't have a "bad attitude to Wikipedia editors in general". They 640-816 Exam exposed corruption and got censored for it, like what would happen in a Sovjet prison camp. Adam, your comment is quite rude to anyone who gives criticism of Wikipedia without fluffing up Jimbo, saying that this is proper treatment, for all their chances to come to an end, and be banned for an infinite time, even when another editor has a plan laid out to mentor them. Your comments are unhelpful and are not making the situation better. In your view, every critic of Wikipedia should be banned. This is not in the spirit of accepting criticism.
