I have been advised by the WMF that if anyone is concerned about being sexually harassed they must report this to AN/I and there are no private mechanisms to report this sort of thing.
Is this for real?
Assuming you've contacted Trust&Safety, "falls outside of the Foundation's remit" is a standard answer to receive as a regular editor.
Bringing the issue to ANI it will most likely be ignored. If your issue is with a long-term / established editor it has a significant chance to boomerang https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wp:BOOMERANG.
Sadly, this is for real and somewhat the reason behind the UCoC proposal. Whether that will change this is another question.
