Not going to advocate for its reversal (especially if the supposed event will only conclude in a week), but I would like to present some other less drastic alternatives if any further situations arise– hiding comments on a per article basis with CSS and/or "disabling" commenting on a per article basis through the abuse filter. That's good to know you an hide comments with CSS or using the abuse filter to disable comments. If you want, we can always do that with the John and Jane Doe page.
