For the record since he is an english wikipedian,
I blocked Irate for
one week on meta. Those unhappy with that decision may of course cancel
it and unblock him. Reason given for the block : uncooperative behavior
with his fellow wikipedians.
And after an irc conversation today in which he appealed his latest
block in en by Snowspinner, I blocked him indefinitely from English
Wikipedia.
He says that our rules are rubbish, and that he intended to continue
"following" them as he has in the past. (i.e., not at all) I implored
him to take on a higher standard of behavior, but he adopted a lawyering
posture about it, that he's going to do as much as he can within the
rules as he sees them being applied to others. (i.e. the argument that
if anyone gets away somehow with bad behavior, he can do it too).
We've got an encyclopedia to write, and we should be very very sorry to
those who have had to put up with him for this long.

Maybe he will now regret publishing his name, telephone number and
address in every email he sent to this list :)
