[edit] Has anyone reached out to Essjay since the controversy?

While writing a commentary about the Wikipedia community, I happened to recall the Essjay controversy. I'm wondering if anyone has made any effort to reach out to Essjay and invite him to consider becoming active again. I think he made some mistakes, but that was five years ago, and notwithstanding those mistakes, he also did some good volunteering and had many friends and supporters here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sheldon Rampton (talkcontribs) 02:38, 25 August 2011
