This is something I've been wondering for awhile...

Why isn't this presented as an option within your profile? Perhaps a unified list of all posts (questions, comments and answers) where the user can selectively disassociate from themselves? Check a box next to a post, and click a button?

To prevent abuse, it would be necessary to

  • Include these actions as worthy of inspection on the review pagereview page
    • Good likelihood these will be low quality, and thus fodder for cleanup
    • Potential for trolling is high, as you can float a turd and then quickly leave the scene of the crime
  • Community ♦ to track multiple disassociations
    • As it does edits and deletions
    • Multiple disassociations would indicate something odd is going on
  • The action should be undoable by a moderator
    • The original user should be tracked silently in an area not released in data dumps, similar to votes.

I think implementing this would be keeping more with the spirit of the CC:WIKI rather than the current method.
