She sounds like an activist who will interpret anything neutral
as taking a position against, and who's lost so much perspective
that a single person's statement is taken as the official word. I'm
just as happy she's going away, because there's no evidence that
she would be able to work cooperatively with anybody who
disagrees with any part of her position.

Be not too troubled, because this will happen more and more; a
successfully neutral Wikipedia will come in for nonstop calumnies
from the partisans.
