I made my name and my information publically viewable
because I don't
believe that these people can actually hurt me in any concrete way. Maybe
that was naive but I still can't think of how. They can be annoying and
harassing, but if I don't let it get to me, it won't. Part of administrative
responsibility is having the force of will to brush aside the people who
don't deserve the recognition that giving a damn about them or what they do
gives them.

Ryan,
Harassment and stalking are crimes for a reason. Though you probably don't mean to be
dismissive of victims of these crimes, you come across that way when you say that you
"don't let it get to you". The psychological trauma from harassment and
stalking is real. Wikipedia needs to do a better job identifying the people that have
harmed by this abuse and supporting them through the experience. This is a wise course of
action for many reasons.
