Recent edits. I don't see anything glaring but I didn't look that hard.

Yes, I noticed that from the link at the top. I should've been clearer: I don't see anything else glaring. Doesn't mean he's not in trouble, just that we don't need to do a massive repair.

Also, he did something weird to the examples on Hello, putting them behind a %% note thing.

Commented-out. Usually used on pages to leave admin notes so that it's in the source but not viewable otherwise (I actually used that on Warhammer 40000 Space Marine), I fixed it, though. Doesn't make that much sense to have examples for the word Hello but meh.

Ok, yeah, edit history needs checking.

I checked a ways back in his edit history. Something weird going on — all but those two edits are good ones, Natter and sinkhole removal, subpoint consolidation, taking out drooling over actresses...

I've put an edit suspension on him — we need to find out what was going on.

Account suicide? It's happened before, a formally good person goes right off the deep end...though this isn't as extreme as some cases.

Eh, well, he can explain himself in Edit Banned. Nothing more we can do other than double check his history for any more problems.
