Anita whatsit's intro was "Wikipedia is locking down o noez, editors up in arms" - I hopefully corrected it, said we were doing it with great caution after occasional long waits for approval on de:wp, that it was only for BLPs, and that editors were concerned about taking away the instant editing thing and long bottlenecks.
