On a [[wiki]] running on the {{tag|MediaWiki}} software, '''check user''' is an account variable for people who have access to specific personal information on all whom have edited said wiki. Check user privileges enable the ability to see what [[IP address]]es and what software browers other [[user]]s have been editing from. Check user privileges tend to be reserved for the most trusted [[community]] members; typically an existing [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|bureaucrats]] or [[system administrator]] – since ''check user'' information can be used in ways that ''could'' cause real-world consequences for others, as when it is exposed what an account's identity, employer, etc. are. | |||
