A '''check user''' is a person (user) on a [[wiki]] who has access to see what [[IP address]]es other users have been editing from.  Check user privileges tend to be reserved for the most trusted users, typically an existing [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'crat]] or [[sysop]], since check user information can be used in ways that can cause real-world consequences for other users, as when it is exposed what a user's identity, employer, etc. are.
