If the decision of the elections committee is that his candidacy can stand (although he still hasn't confirmed his full name), we need to bring the facts to the attention of the voters so that they can make an informed choice. We shouldn't let a troll get in just because we were asleep on the job. The committee also needs to be careful who they allow to vote - wouldn't want someone to get elected just because a load of his socks voted for him!
We certainly need to do something - I understand the user is currently blocked on meta, which makes answering questions rather challenging. I suggest the election committee offer to post answers sent to them via email.
We should probably consider moving the WMUK stuff onto a seperate wiki/server at some point in the future, to avoid this issue (and similar/related issues) in the future.
