Also note that User:Carbonite has declared that he is leaving WP over this matter -Ravedave 04:14, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

I belive User:Radiant! an admin with almost 20,000 edits is also leaving over this -Ravedave 02:22, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Is "contributors" deliberately misspelled as "contributers"? It's in quotation marks, so I'm not sure. If the misspelling is deliberate, a sic might help. - Jmabel | Talk 05:00, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes, it was; the quote was direct from the block log. Apologies, I should have marked it with "sic". However, it's now been replaced with another quote, a slight modification that no longer uses the word. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 21:03, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Oh, right - I saw the almost identical wording on WP:AN and assumed it came from there. Didn't think to check the block log. Apologies, by the way, for messing around with your copy: I just thought it was worth trying to get it completely right, for posterity. -- ALoan (Talk) 01:14, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
