--- Comment #41 from Teles <[email protected]> --- If we checkuser every vandal we find, it may be helpful somehow, but that wouldn't be allowed by our policies as we can't check every vandal. The fact that this bug is helpful doesn't make it allowed by our policies. It helps to relate IP with user and, worse, for users who are not identified to foundation. I was once able to see the IP of an user who had never given reasons to be checked and while I was not a checkuser. Autoblock removals can still be done by using the block ID, that can be provided by a blocked user. I have already removed lots of autoblocks and I never used the IP for that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
