From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

From the article, it appears that Wales banned Starling as a retaliation for quitting. However, reading Starling's talk page, it looks like Jimbo was either joking or amicably banning Starling to help him keep his commitment to his thesis project. I think this needs to be clarified.

The quotation marks around the word ban in the second paragraph were supposed to help indicate that, but I've added an additional quote that should help make the meaning clearer. --Michael Snow 18:48, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
