| :You're asking what WP policy should be on editors who "may have committed fraud in real life"?? That's a topic I hadn't pondered, to be honest. Are you asking whether a background criminal check should be a prerequisite to adminship, or something?

(What's So Funny 'Bout).... The Golden Rule
Note: I've edited WP in the past. I left in good standing, and have returned with a new account because of privacy and harassment concerns. Please do not speculate about any earlier account(s) I had, or link me to identifying specifics. I am aware of WP:SOCK and WP:OUTING and related policies; I heed them and ask others to do the same. Thank you, and happy editing!
Old alternate account, no longer active: User:Bodhi Agonist.
If you leave a message here, I'll respond here unless you request otherwise; it's much easier for me to keep conversations in one place.
Serious question
My hypothetical question on User talk:VirtualSteve was very serious. I had been thinking of raising it in another forum. Particularly if the user may have committed fraud in real life, do you think wikipedia should allow them to reincarnate and possibly move towards an admin role? Looking forward to discussion.
