Wikipedia's privacy violations

I have to restore contents related to name and shame pages which was originally removed by User:Keith for several reasons:

• For In at least one case where a user accused of being an LTA is an apparent juvenile, no special measures to consider their privacy rights (i.e. hiding LTA pages to only audiences with Wikipedia accounts) are apparently observed, it was supported or otherwise corroborated by this and this, the very latter being a page in which it exposed the private information of a juvenile editor for allegingly engaging in vandalism in Disney topic areas on Wikipedia.

• For Such practices may risk violating GDPR as there's also a case where scientific researchers based in Czech Republic and Slovakia were doxxed that way due to accusations that they had engaged in self-promoting edits on Wikipedia. At a glance, little to no fact-checking and quality checking processes were observed in the LTA page creation process, which may mean that some or all accusations in some if not all of LTA pages may be inaccurate and could therefore constitute defamation/libel, two citations namely this and this were provided, the former which indeed links to a page containing the personal information of the scientific researchers while the latter would obviously appear as poorly-written contents for any reasonable observers.
