I myself have accepted pay for editing Wikipedia, something that many in the community would at first blush find off-putting.
And at second blush, they'd probably find the "Blockuser" link and click on it. Even more interesting:

Most of my income in February came from edits-for-profit, and I see this as an exciting development that will further Wikipedia's mission rather than hamper it.
I even asked Greg about this earlier today in a PM - at the risk of offending him - and he swears he has nothing to do with it. (Luckily, Greg doesn't seem so easily offended!)
The thing is, normally I wouldn't put too much stock in something like this, but this comment is exceptionally well-written. There isn't a single spelling or grammatical error, and to be honest, it looks like something I might have written myself, seeing as how the only thing that surpasses my awesome writing ability is my even-more-awesome modesty about it.
Still, I'm surprised someone like that would risk commenting on anyone's blog site at all... Maybe he's getting a little too cocky for his own good!
