I'm suffering from the opposite problem right now, as an elected local councillor (up for re-election in a week's time incidentally). Because I have a biographical article, editors that dislike my edits have been known to draw attention to it and assume that my editing must be biased. Worse, some have recently taken to directly threatening to make a political issue of it.

I don't expect this actually to happen soon, but it seems to me that it's a form of harassment and a personal attack.

Huh. The last edits to that page were someone tagging it {{delete}}... and that someone being a Conservative councillor in Wycombe who was tagging the articles of all other local councillors!

Oh, the amusement.
