This page is for requesting CheckUser information on a wiki with no local CheckUsers (see also requesting checkuser access). When filling a request remember;

  • Provide as much information as possible;
  • Provide evidence of abuse which requires CheckUser (spambots; link to deleted content);
  • Check local CheckUser policies (and local CheckUsers) before filing.

A few things to remember;

  • CheckUser is not for fishing, please provide evidence to back up accusations.
  • The tool is not for connecting an account to IP. If you want a block on the underlying IP/range, ask.
  • Stewards will not release information from a CheckUser in public. If a good reason for data release is present, a steward may provide information privately only when absolutely necessary.
