historical pages 142.177.8.89
'142' was the nickname for anonymous editor 142.177.8.89. Some believed them to be a later incarnation of 24, though 142 denied it. 142 was banned by Jimbo Wales after some claims of death threats over Maveric. 142 went on editing the English Wikipedia and Meta for many more months. He spent a long time on w:MeatballWiki. He may still be found on other wikis, such as Consumerium. It is believed that 142 or 24 brought many editors to Wikipedia.

Our now mutual friend has come to, um, play on MeatballWiki, and he is raving on about regime change at Wikipedia and how the situation will make itself clear by 2004. I'm not entirely sure what he's talking about most of the time, but I'm sure I should give you some heads up here that he's planning to cause serious trouble in the near future. -- User:SunirShah

He's already made his threats here, too. But thanks. ;-)
