Sorry. For some reason, the reply link was unavailable on come comments. (workaround is to use "link" and open single comment with a reply field)

It's not bug, it's a feature. Replying is only possible a few minutes after the comment was posted, to prevent discussion going out of hand.

Besides I don't understand what wikipedia did wrong.

Ah, thanks, the delay does not seem to be explained anywhere.

About Wikipedia. Do you still remember the SOPA blackout day? Everybody was warned about upcoming blackout a few weeks beforehand, and most importantly, pretty much everyone supported the blackout, thus reaching the consensus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Consensus

Today, Russian Wiki is closed. The decision was taken yesterday by a bunch of admins, who started a poll, without any warning and without anyone prepared. It is a violation of consensus rules as described in the link above: "Consensus ... nor is it the result of a vote."

Admins' actions today are a blatant violation of these rules by Coordinated actions, Meatpuppetry and are biased in general: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:False_consensus
