I was subliminally aware of your assist in Nemo's protest to Lila. What nobody is prepared to acknowledge is that only under Lila's term some of the most blatant and egregious instances of coordinated PR socking and on-wiki abuses could come out.
1) WIKI-PR (250 sock accounts) 2) Orange Moody(350+ accounts) 3) DeCoetzee 4) Wifione 5) Cuntgate - Eric Corbett 6) Gamergate How long will WMF/BoT keep denying that there are persons in high positions of trust (remember Essjay) who are misusing Wikipedia for personal profit and in ways detrimental to the Terms of Use. Surely it would be the simplest thing for WMF to insist on verification of WMF user accounts, to ensure that minors cannot edit, or else to ensure that anonymous editors must take responsibility for defamatory/biased content..
