Comment 25 for bug 262193

I don't think there's a Right Answer here. But I'd like to offer one thought:

The difference between a Wikipedia entry and a Launchpad user profile is reader expectations.

When someone reads a Wikipedia entry about Jane Random, they have no expectation that the content there is produced by or endorsed by Jane. But when someone reads her Launchpad profile, they usually assume that the information there comes from Jane Random herself. Launchpad user account information is "attributable" in a way that Wikipedia and other random assertions on the Net are not.

We should take such attribution assumptions into account when thinking about this issue.
