Well, this is based on my experience
as GA author and reviewer. I have never seen an IP successfully
nominate an article (I did see nominations once or twice, they
failed quickly, as the articles were not up to GA level and IP
never came back). And of course, I have yet to see an IP GA
reviewer (that is not a troll or a useless if good faithed
newbie). If you are aware of any successful GANs were the primary
author was an IP, I'd like to look at them. I'd hypothesize that:
* they are a tiny percentage of the whole (if we have more than a
10 GAs written by anons in our pool of 15,000 or so, I'd be very
surprised; if more than 100 I am willing to eat a hat, or more
constructively, I'll write a DYK (if possible) on a subject of
your choice :D);
* majority of anon-written GAs are old, have been already
delisted, or would not pass a modern GA review (and if nominated
for a current GA review, would fail, due to not meeting criteria
and the primary author being unreachable to address the issues
raised).
