  == Elen of the Roads ==  FYI JClemens, pursuant to this whole mailing list broohaha, if you ever need anything with which to counteract this rather bizarre public perception that exists that Elen is an editor of 100% integrity, you should investigate the history of . As you may or may not know, along with several others, Mo is an Irish nationalist editor who has GAMEd and CPUSHed all over the pedia for years. The admins who work WP:AE have, after literally years of disinterest and inaction on the part of the ordinary admin cadre, finally caught on to their tactics and, pursuant to the TROUBLES case, have begun dishing out discretionary sanctions. Consequently, all the main actors are now topic banned or have retired after seeing the writing on the wall, being unable or unwilling to edit collaboratively in the area. Mo has escaped so far however, because a significant chunk of his early editting history is obscured to interested observers - the existence of the account name he used for years (before dumping it once it gathered too many blocks) is to all intents and purposes being coverred up by Elen. The claimed justification for this is WP:OUTING, and fortunately for Mo, the explanation of how that came to be is far too complex to matter anymore even if it could be explained succinctly (it really can't). The only thing that matters now is that it is and always was, totally bogus. If anyone really wants to know Elen's true character, they need to do only one thing - ask her directly to provide them (or a trusted third party like Jimbo) with the evidence that would show the blocks and intimidation she dishes out to anyone who even mentions this, is remotely justified under OUTING. This is after all the only publicly stated reason why his past account remains hidden. What will likely follow that question is the truest indication of Elen's integrity that I've ever seen - not only will she not provide this information, she will attempt to justify her continuing obfuscation of the account's name in her own unique terms, that have not one thing to do with any policy or community norm, in a remarkably similar way to the way she's seen fit to disclose mailing list data in this situation, simply because she thought she should.
