Bug #: 29330
Summary: CheckUser should take over
Block::doRetroactiveAutoblock() lookups
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: CheckUser
AssignedTo: jschulz_4...@msn.com
ReportedBy: br...@wikimedia.org
Blocks: 21514
Classification: Unclassified
In internal discussions re: IPv6 deployment for Wikimedia, we found that some
of our large sites such as en.wikipedia.org have a recentchanges.rc_ip column
that is not wide enough to hold IPv6 addresses.
Since CheckUser has long since taken over all other roles rc_ip used to hold
for logging, if we can let CheckUser also handle this we'll be able to simply
turn off $wgPutIPInRC and leave rc_ip entries empty without having to worry
about it.
Will need backport to 1.17.
