Livingstone is positioning himself has a romantic lead--has been since "Sex And the City". A rumor about him being gay could have very direct impact on his ability to land leading-man roles. If I were him, I'd be going after this pretty vigorously too. I don't see it as gay panic, so much as a necessary business move.
And relax, SF. Wikipedia protects contributor's identifiable info against everything but a court order. What's happened here is, the suit calls on them to release that information so the real rumormonger (which could be compared to online vandalism) can be pursued. None of this is outside Wikipedia's policies.
