Personally, I don't think this was handled very well. I'm not surprised Moulton was blocked, and the ethics project did need to be revamped, but the swoop-in block and decrees by Jimbo were, from my perspective, not a good method. It would be one thing if Jimbo regularly addressed civility issues, but this seems pretty one-sided considering the crap that editors regularly get away with on WP. I know that the over-the-top inclusionism that has historically been the rule on Wikiversity has made it difficult to deal with the issues with the ethics project, but was this really a good answer? I agree with that this was not handled very well at all. As a custodian myself I had no idea that blocking Moulton 640-863 Exam was really even being considered. While I was getting a bit tired of the dominant discourse around the Ethics project it was my perogative to follow along if I wanted to or not. The fact that Jimmy Wales can enter into WV, create an account and with his first 'edit' block a new yet somewhat prolific editor based on reasons brought with him from WP just doesn't seem right to me. I also agree that this was not handled very well at all - though I fully believe that it was justified. Incidentally, 642-446 Exam Moulton was also blocked from the wikiversity-en IRC channel yesterday. I'm going to develop a page about this, where I'll try to be as transparent and thorough about the circumstances leading up to Moulton's blocks, at User:Cormaggio/Moulton's block. Although a number of users are against the block and those who are in favour, it has come to my attention that the foundations policy states that revealing any personal/private information goes against the very core of it's policies including violating the Data Protection Act which strictly forbids people in doing this no matter how Moultan gained the information the policy and the law still applies, although my support for the block is very weak - though I'm now starting to support the block which Jimbo 642-552 Exam has done, IP 68.96.213.118 your comments are welcome since you've been participating in the dicussion - though next time if you join in the discussion please don't be uncivil towards other editors who have the right to express his/her view in this even in the first comment which you've mentioned about me - that was both uncivil and unprovoked, I'll be willing to forget that comment if you start to remain civil to other editors (including) me - if Moulton does get unblocked for what any reason I may oppose or support it depending on the situation though at the moment I'll support this block.
