Q14
Should Q14 be removed? It's basically asking for personally identifying information. And it's being asked by an editor who has already opposed, and who appears to have some kind of a personal vendetta against the candidate. At the very least, I would recommend that the candidate decline to answer this question. &mdash;SW&mdash; speak 16:03, 9 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I would agree. He's being asked to dig out contributions made as a not-logged-in IP from two years ago - I don't know how that would even be possible. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 16:13, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
 * He won't even say where he edited though, let alone dig out diffs (not always easy but he did do a few hundred apparently). My issue is that he told me it was always outside of UK/IRE - yet he came back to where he left off as Sony Youth, and did little else besides. I was editing heavily at the time and saw a lot of strong opinions from IP's (to say the least), including in votes. People don't realise that he holds stubbornly to his strong opinions - this 'moderate tone' he has is literally a 'tone' - it's not a moderate position, and he edits in a area where these things matter. Why else does he want to be an admin if its not related to this area? My question totally reasonable (especially here), and on at least three occasions over he past year or two he's just ignored it. Matt Lewis (talk) 22:58, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It'll be good practice for dealing with the clearly inappropriate requests they'll get as an admin. Quite obviously the candidate's under no obligation to reveal their IP address(es) and I would certainly decline to do so if it were my RfA. 28bytes (talk) 16:14, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Then he should decline and say why, and not just ignore. IMO, admin should be more open than normal editors, at least if the have the block tool (which for some reason all of them do of course). Matt Lewis (talk) 22:58, 10 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm concerned as to why he chose to edit as an undercover (didn't reveal his previous account) IP. GoodDay (talk) 03:22, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Is an undercover IP any different to a standard IP? BTW, the simplest way to find out why would be to read the answer to Q7, or if that is insufficient for your purposes, the you could pose an additional question. Either is better than hiding away your snide insinuations at the end of an unused talk page. Fmph (talk) 08:02, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't ask you, so keep your snide comments about my concerns, to yourself. GoodDay (talk) 11:28, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * You didn't ask me either, but I also think the word "undercover" is inappropriate, and should be struck. Scolaire (talk) 22:48, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright, that was a more polite request. GoodDay (talk) 23:35, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It also needs to move onto the Rfa page not hidden away at the end of an unused talk page. Go and ask the question! Fmph (talk) 06:07, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
