What happened? Did someone ban Anthere? Or did her

This is ridiculous. Maybe we need some tighter controls on the use of
the "ban a user id or ip range" feature. Like, three sysops have to
approve the ban for it to take effect.
Will someone please do something about this right away so that Anthere
can edit, and will the responsible party please step forward and
apologize?
I don't see an IP block on en that would hit Anthere; I presume it's
already been removed if there was an autoblock to her IP. The
'Mediator' username was blocked by Jimbo.
As Anthere is a sysop on en she should be able unblock herself if she
accidentally gets caught like this again, unless there's a technical
problem I don't know about (Tim set up the new blocking stuff and I'm
not very familiar with it.)
