Meta:Requests for CheckUser information - Meta

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Requests for CheckUser information on Meta-Wiki (for other wikis please go to here)

This page allows you to request CheckUser information on Meta.

Procedure
  • Please read the CheckUser policy before asking for a check.
  • When adding new requests, please use the {{checkuser}} template to list the user names in question and {{checkip}} for IP addresses, which simplifies investigation.
  • List your request at the bottom of the "Requests for Meta-Wiki only" heading.
  • When asking for a check we need to know:
    • why do you believe that the accounts are related (please present evidence for that with the help of diffs, etc.),
    • why, if the accounts are related, they are being used abusively, in violation of policy; and
    • why a block or other measures can't be justified without the need of technical evidence.
