That sounds very much like applying special standards to protect us that
nobody else gets.  An incident involving someone causing trouble somewhere
else will get an article in Wikipedia.  We don't listen to complaints that
the incident should go unreported because reporting it encourages people to
cause trouble in other sites.  Why, then, should we do this when it might
encourage people to cause trouble in Wikipedia?
