"support the development of tools for volunteer editors and staff to reduce harassment on Wikipedia and block harassers."

The only harassment I've seen on Wikipedia is from Little Napoleon long-term admins who grind contributors down with petty bureaucracy.

You might want to review the debacle that was the Salim Mehajer article then.

Do you have a reference? I'm interested.

There's a summary here, but it rather understates the whole thing - read the above link first if you have time: http://motherboard.vice.com/read/wikipedia-editor-says-sites...

Thanks.

That's... wow. I assumed it was something about the subject of the article getting involved in harassment, but it doesn't seem to be.

I'm glad that the author got some help.

This has been my experience also.
