* ''I'm not sure how you're determining "his last edit", because there have certainly been signed edits by Ward since 2005.  See, for example (which I found by taking random stab at the History), http://c2.com/wiki/history/WikiWikiSystemNotice/893 which dates from June 10, 2010.  (See http://c2.com/wiki/history/WikiWikiSystemNotice/ for dates.)  That trivially refutes your assertion.  There are newer edits which may either have been signed and subsequently deleted as the content was refactored, or which were unsigned, and I'm sure others can be found in the History.  Also, in keeping with the trend toward unsigned edits since roughly 2005, Ward didn't always sign his contributions.''


In early December 2014, [[WikiIndex]] user [[user:manorainjan]] -- who was banned from WikiWikiWeb in late November 2014 for demonstrating anti-community activity and failing to engage in dialogue with the Wiki community over his apparent attempts to add a "category none" to every uncategorised page -- began frequently and continuously (over 12 hours per day) spamming the WikiWikiWeb with attempts to preserve approximately 15 pages he created shortly before and after the ban.  On the WikiWikiWeb, bans were externally enforced via the use of a 'bot that automatically reverted edits made by banned users.  The result was that the WikiWikiWeb "new recent changes" page at [[http://c2.com/cgi/RecentChanges http://c2.com/cgi/RecentChanges]] frequently looked like the following:
