I'd rather have Aude cite a reliable source.
People are not reliable sources.  No living person is such an authority 
that we should listen to that person.  Not even on their own biography, much 
less anything else.

The role of the expert is not to spout dogma, but rather to build a case 
using citable sources.  No one is immune from this diction.  The Archangel 
Gabriel told me so.

On a side-note you completely ignored what I actually stated.
Aude mentioned the checkuser logs.  I pointed out that IP server logs are 
*not* the same thing as checkuser logs.  The privacy policy states that these 
exist, that they are kept.  It states or at least implies that as I said, 
they are not the same thing as the checkuser logs.

It does not state for how long, either is kept.

So there.
