I think ArbCom is setup to handle something like that when someone needs to pass them information/evidence that normally can't be posted on WP. The biggest problem in your post is outting to a specific person - that's a huge no-no. I'm not touching the COI issue because for right here and now, it's not relevant. Both user names and IP addresses provide some anonymity which you stripped away from them without their consent. If they disclose the information on their own on wiki, that's something different. I kinda ignore the 2 years ago thing because if that's the case, then who would care? But you did care, and care enough to dig and post the blog. I'm guessing (as I said in ANI) that's related to the FCC decision.

I agree. What makes this case different, however, and therefore newsworthy, is that person involved is a major player in a major organization, and that organization is a national leader in opposing the very things that its own high ranking member does when she acts anonymously. For example, the ALA opposed outing a 9/11 terrorist to the police, when that person's own deputy outed a major sports figure on Wikipedia for marital infidelity. For example, the ALA promotes "intellectual freedom" while anonymously propagandizing on Wikipedia to promote its own political interests. Lastly, I appreciate the support and guidance you have provided. --<a href="/wiki/User:LegitimateAndEvenCompelling" title="User:LegitimateAndEvenCompelling">LegitimateAndEvenCompelling</a> (<a class="mw-selflink-fragment" href="#top">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:LegitimateAndEvenCompelling#c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-27T22:20:00.000Z-Ravensfire-2010-12-27T21:51:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:20, 27 December 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-27T22:20:00.000Z-Ravensfire-2010-12-27T21:51:00.000Z"><span id="ooui-php-15" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-iconElement oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui='{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"icon":"share","label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}'><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-icon-share oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-27T22:20:00.000Z-Ravensfire-2010-12-27T21:51:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><b><a href="/wiki/User:Ravensfire" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Ravensfire"><span style="color:darkred;"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-27T22:40:00.000Z-Ravensfire-2010-12-27T21:51:00.000Z"></span>Ravensfire</span></a></b>, I'm now starting to get solid support at the AN/I.

Similarly, I suppose Will Beback is not aware of the extent to which I'm the opposite of what he claims, but I give him the benefit of the doubt that he has heard too much from the above-mentioned people to separate fact from fiction. During one of the gang attacks on me is when he first got involved in taking notice of me. Now he only sees what he was told at that time. Oh well, that's life.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>Be that as it may, I try to abide by all things Wikipedia, and I am extremely happy that you have noticed.

If the ALA is anonymously promoting <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703886904576031512110086694.html">a Free Press cause that the Wall Street Journal exposes</a>, then that is evidence that I am whistleblowing, not harassing.

It was whistleblowing. That others external to Wikipedia see it the same way is highly relevant to the issue raised at the ANI. They also see it as whistleblowing. Since no harassment is involved, the ANI request is groundless.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>That said, I am perfectly willing to let the blocking admin take his time to sort things out as his findings should go a long way toward stopping your repeating my past history as often as you do. Did you see what Magog the Ogre said? Do you find any legitimate and even compelling reason to doubt him? You complain about my not assuming good faith. After the findings are made known, I am certain you can see that continuing to raise those old issues against me would itself be a violation of good faith. I am certain you would not do that--that's a large reason why I look forward to the findings and am encouraged by all those supporting me. --<a href="/wiki/User:LegitimateAndEvenCompelling" title="User:LegitimateAndEvenCompelling">LegitimateAndEvenCompelling</a> (<a class="mw-selflink-fragment" href="#top">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:LegitimateAndEvenCompelling#c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-28T09:29:00.000Z-Will_Beback-2010-12-28T09:01:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:29, 28 December 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-28T09:29:00.000Z-Will_Beback-2010-12-28T09:01:00.000Z"><span id="ooui-php-32" class="ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton oo-ui-widget oo-ui-widget-enabled oo-ui-buttonElement oo-ui-buttonElement-frameless oo-ui-iconElement oo-ui-labelElement oo-ui-flaggedElement-progressive oo-ui-buttonWidget" data-ooui='{"_":"OO.ui.ButtonWidget","rel":["nofollow"],"framed":false,"icon":"share","label":"Reply","flags":["progressive"],"classes":["ext-discussiontools-init-replybutton"]}'><a role="button" tabindex="0" rel="nofollow" class="oo-ui-buttonElement-button"><span class="oo-ui-iconElement-icon oo-ui-icon-share oo-ui-image-progressive"></span><span class="oo-ui-labelElement-label">Reply</span><span class="oo-ui-indicatorElement-indicator oo-ui-indicatorElement-noIndicator oo-ui-image-progressive"></span></a></span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-28T09:29:00.000Z-Will_Beback-2010-12-28T09:01:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Will_Beback-2010-12-28T11:24:00.000Z-LegitimateAndEvenCompelling-2010-12-28T09:29:00.000Z"></span>Wikipedia is not Wikileaks.

You missed the key issue, however. 1) Whistleblowing was the term Magog the Ogre used in the ANI, and 2) any whistleblowing done, if any, was done <i>external</i> to Wikipedia. I did <i>not</i> use Wikipedia for any whistleblowing, and I have even been careful <i>not</i> to repost the link to my blog post. 3) We are here only because another apparent ALA supporter went to ANI in his/her first edit ever and magically knew a) where to go, b) how to link hyperlink, and c) how to use wikilinks, etc. Then, as comments came in where it appeared people either supported me or just shrugged their shoulders, more brand new IP addys joined in the fray to keep adding concerns.

This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled. </p><p>On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (<a href="/wiki/Help_talk:Minor_edit#Should_we_remove_the_Preference_setting_to_.22Mark_all_edits_minor_by_default.22_.3F" title="Help talk:Minor edit">consensus discussion</a>, guidelines for use at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:MINOR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:MINOR">WP:MINOR</a>). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was <code>true</code>. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to <code>false</code> in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way. </p><p>For well-established users such as yourself there is <b><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_78#Preference_to_mark_all_edits_minor_by_default_asked_to_be_removed_in_bugzilla:24313" title="Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 78">a workaround available</a></b> involving custom JavaScript.
