And there the problem lies, going to local authorities (police) isn’t going to be useful. Some authorities require the alleged crime to be committed in their jurisdiction, which can be limited, anonymous nature of the person who committed the alleged crime makes it difficult to identify the

It depends on the nature of the incident. If the harassment took place on the wiki, yes, it should be reported via an on-wiki process since it does not involve private information. On the English Wikipedia, that would generally be AN/I. If the harassment happened off-wiki (e.g., via harassing
