"Wikipedia users, especially administrators, will not permit a user under
attack to be isolated, but will support them. This may include reverting
harassing edits, protecting or deleting pages, blocking users, or taking
other appropriate action."

That's it. That's the whole of it.  That's why we will not permit Slim
Virgin or anybody else to be attacked, inadvertently defamed or made
to feel uncomfortable because of external allegations, by conspiracy
theorist or otherwise, about her identity, through the medium of a
wiki whose avowed intent is not this kind of nonsense, but the
creation of a high quality free encyclopedia.

This is not Usenet, nor will it become the fifty-first state of
Usenet.  This is an encyclopedia.
