I think the point here is that WP policy states that we must used only reputable or credible published sources as secondary sources, and Usenet doesn't count as that. It can be used as primary-source material for information about itself, but it can't be used as a secondary source of information about someone else, especially not when we're using a person's real name (unlike the case of Sollog).

WE are not reporting that he is Kook of the Millenium. We are reporting that the Usenet group so labeled him. This reporting is accurate and factual, and we shouldn't be removing the information.
