Temporary account IP viewer granted

The temporary account IP viewer logo, composed of the Wikipedia globe with a user and an IP address

Hello, Chrs. Per your request, your account has been granted temporary-account-viewer rights. You are now able to reveal the IP addresses of individuals using temporary accounts that are not visible to the general public. This is very sensitive information that is only to be used to aid in anti-abuse workflows. Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer for more information on this user right. It is important to remember:

  • You must not share IP address data with someone who does not have the same access permissions unless disclosure is permissible as per guidelines listed at Foundation:Policy:Wikimedia Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy.
  • Access must not be used for political control, to apply pressure on editors, or as a threat against another editor in a content dispute. There must be a valid reason to investigate a temporary user. Note that using multiple temporary accounts is not forbidden, so long as they are not used in violation of policies (for example, block or ban evasion).

It is also important to note that the following actions are logged for others to see:

  • When a user accepts the preference that enables or disables IP reveal for their account.
  • Revealing an IP address of a temporary account.
  • Listing the temporary accounts that are associated with one or more IP addresses (using the CIDR notation format).

Remember, even if a user is violating policy, avoid revealing personal information if possible. Use temporary account usernames rather than disclosing IP addresses directly, or give information such as same network/not same network or similar. If you do not want the user right anymore then please ask me or another administrator and it will be removed for you. You may also voluntarily give up access at any time by visiting Special:Preferences. Happy editing! — rsjaffe 🗣️ 03:12, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

How does it look? I was just trying to stop the bleeding...hopefully I didn't bake any errors into the finished product. And I know less than nothing about football...except apparently the Ravens aren't living up to their potential? At least that's the impression I get from the radio sportscaster every day... --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 04:50, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

You know, the edit history might look a bit 'Loopy', but it looks like things have returned to normal (at least here, maybe not for the fans...). — chrs || talk 04:53, 5 January 2026 (UTC)
I see what you did there. As for the fans, all I can say is...I live a bit south of Baltimore, so you have my sympathies...although when it comes to sports, my preferred game is whatever passes for basketball in this city. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 04:59, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

Precinct map request

Hello! I saw that you recently made precinct maps for other North Carolina referendums, and I was wondering if you could make a precinct map for May 2012 North Carolina Amendment 1? Delcoan (talk) 01:59, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

This will depend on the availability of an accurate shapefile for the precincts in effect then. Annoyingly enough that election is the latest election (excepting 2006) where the NCSBE doesn't publish one. I've found one that may be accurate but that remains to be tested. — chrs || talk 21:56, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

  • Special report: What actually happened during the Wikimedia security incident?
    A horrifying exploit took place, which could have had catastrophic and far-reaching consequences if used maliciously; instead, it seems to have happened by accident and was used for childish vandalism. How did this happen, and what did the script actually do?
