I apologize if my questioning was or is obtuse. I'll be more straightforward. Where on en.wikipedia.org is the enforceable policy (approved and endorsed by the community--not just the IRC admins, whose on-IRC rules have no merit on-Wiki) stating that you cannot repost IRC logs from the unofficial Wikipedia channels for community review of situations or other legitimate purposes?
You've had several answers so far and you are responding as if you're looking for a loophole.
We try to presume the editors are non-idiots of good faith. "Logging is bad for these reasons. Don't do it." What on earth more do you need?
