task one. remove Luke-Jr's editing privileges. he has done more damage then support of facts on the bitcoin wiki over the years.

I could not disagree more strongly.

After numerous attempts to contact the other wiki administrators, none of whom responded over the course of four weeks, Luke-Jr stepped up and did an exceptionally even-handed job resolving an edit dispute on the ICBIT page.  The dispute was between the ICBIT operators on the one hand and two people (one of which was me (*)) on the other over their (IMHO false) claims that their users were not exposed to counterparty risk.  

Here is Luke-Jr's resolution of the drawn-out and increasingly ugly conflict, which both ICBIT and myself were satisfied with.  Nanotube later tweaked Luke's resolution a bit.

Go ahead, read the history and the talk page.  Luke did an equitable and careful job resolving the dispute, and that's the most important qualification for that position.  I was very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend him as an arbiter of disputes.
