So we should just shrug our shoulders when we witness "informal deviation and transgressions especially by high status individuals"?
Are you serious with this stuff? And so the humble editor is trampled on cuz he ainted got friends in high places? Unbelievable.
Policy should be applied, and seen to be applied, fairly and evenly, no matter what "informal status" a person might have. I thought an arbitrator would agree to that!
Fred wants the so-called "laws of sociology" to overrule wikipedia policy. Is this an offical ArbCom line?

All formal organizations and their rules are subject to informal deviation and transgressions especially by high status individuals. We have not outlawed the laws of sociology just by creating a cool website.

Authority rests with the wikipedia community, not with admins. Funny how editors without favor are never cut any slack? Wikipedia is not a club of friends, shaking hands and letting them get away with transgressions. It is the two wikipedias. Real fair. As long as these double standards are perpetuated, with what respect can admins be held?
I don't have to be fool to break rules, just an admin.
