 On [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] wiki sites, an '''IP editor''' can only perform the activities as described in the first 'all' section listed on their relevant [[Special:ListGroupRights]] page.
-'''IP user''' would be the {{tag|WikiConcept|term}} in general for all [[user]]s of a {{tag|wiki}} site who did not log-in for any reason, and therefore are identified by their [[IP address]] only.  In case of a [[:Category:All|wiki site]] or an [[article]] page that is configured as '[[:Category:OpenEdit|open edit]]', and the user does [[Editor|edit]] there, they become an '''IP editor''', and their current [[IP address]] is recorded in the [[edit history]] with the individual [[edit]] instead of their [[username]].
