However, as CW had never been banned, and plenty of admins with check user tools knew she had an open proxie, she might not have expected it would be a cause to sink her RfA, or that it was banned for her to do so.
As far as I know 3 checkusers knew of it, but CW would *have no way of knowing that*. I'm not sure why people are spinning ever more fanciful yarns about CW's ignorance of this policy, in the face of nearly irrefutable evidence that CW was well aware of it.
I managed to miss it as well and if you'd asked me if it was a policy not to edit through open proxies, I'd say "uh, what on earth?" Speaking as someone who blocks them whenever he spots one.
