MediaWiki:Checkuser-summary

''': English Wikisource has a local checkuser policy that requires all checks to be noted on the Administrator's noticeboard except when the privacy of legitimate contributors prevents it. This can be done after the attack has been thwarted, but it does need to be done.'''

This tool scans recent changes to retrieve the IPs used by a user or show the edit/user data for an IP. Users and edits by a client IP can be retrieved via XFF headers by appending the IP with "/xff". IPv4 (CIDR 16-32) and IPv6 (CIDR 64-128) are supported. No more than 5000 edits will be returned for performance reasons. Use this in accordance with policy.
