I don't think it's appropriate to use this list to link to pages that out
other users. I understand your frustration with nothing onwiki getting
done, Carol, I truly do, but part of the social contract of being a
Wikipedian is that we're expected to not attack the "real lives" of other
Wikipedians - even when we think they're terrible or totally wrong.

Wikipedia and the war on women’s dignity

This article mentions an individual who's caused problems at the Gender
Gap task force.
Off wiki sites engaging in outing is, like hashtags, a two edged sword.
It can be used against truly problematic individuals who troll behind
anonymity. But it also can be used against solid editors whose job or
other situation necessitates anonymity but who have angered the wrong troll
by trying to comply with policy.
And the absurdities continue....
