The thread at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Inciden... very disturbing. SlimVirgin seems to have inside knowledge from the Checkuser Logs of which users Lar has been running checks on. The only way she could have obtained this knowledge is if there is either a leak on the Checkuser-L list or if someone with access to the Checkuser logs told her.
What is being done to plug this leak? If it came from a CheckUser or developer that person should be sacked immediately.
SV should be required to say how she got this information and if she refuses she should be blocked until she becomes co-operative.
This sort of security breach is completely unacceptable and intolerable.
There are half a dozen ways SV could have got the info. Online everything leaks the various less public discussions speed that up fractionally but not to any great extent.
This being the case I would suggest that the community is unlikely to benefit from escalating this particular bit of drama.
