I'm blogging about Wikimedia stewards. Does anyone have any good steward stories?

And just to prove that I'm not alone in my opinion of QuiteUnusual, his RfB is currently running at 13/0/0.

Update: he passed at 16/0/0. Given how few editors there are on WB, that's pretty impressive, especially as one editor failed to vote.

The thing about QuiteUnusual is that he's passionate about his cause, and will go to great trouble, out on a limb if necessary, to help anyone else who supports his cause, even if they don't reciprocate. I think there's a moral for all of us there.

Go ask Abd, or Moulton, what kind of abuse Mike's tried on WB or WV.

I suspect that QuiteUnusual won't stand idly by if that sort if thing recurs.

Does "QuiteUnusual" have a real name, Mike? (I mean, other than "Neil", of course.) I try not to vote for people who are playing their roles from behind pseudonymous shields.

Well, obviously if he'd used some silly pseudonym like Wikipedia Review, or some of the other names used by that character (including an admin account on WP) he'd be open to criticism.
