This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Robin Patterson (talk | contribs) at 22:41, 12 August 2004 (Request relating to "mi" - and is it time for a developer to do something about the size of this page?). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

General Notes

It is possible for a developer to alter the database such that an edit which was attributed to an anonymous IP address is attributed to a username. This is usually requested because either:

  • An editor contributes anonymously for a while, and then creates a username and wants their previous edits attributed to their new name; or
  • A user accidentally logged out before making an edit. (Note that there is a simple way to "reclaim" such an inadvertently anonymous edit, provided you act straight away: While still logged out, revert to the version in the history immediately before the edit. Then log in and re-revert to the version after the edit, re-entering your original edit summary.)

Developers reserve the right to deny requests if they feel that there is any reason to doubt the identity of the contributor.

Please note that it may take some weeks before a developer has time to carry out your request.

Changed Username

If a user changes from one username to another and wishes all their old edits to be attributed to the new name, see Wikipedia:Changing username.

Notes on IP addresses

If you wish to change the attribution of an edit in this way, place a request below using the same IP address as you used to make the edit. This is so that we can be sure the IP address was really the user in question. In some cases, an IP address from the same dial-up ISP will be sufficient. Also include the target username, and a link to the diff.

Old Logs

Procedures

Note:You must do this on the computer on which you did the original edits. Please follow procedure, as it will make the process go much faster.

  1. Make sure you are not logged in.
  2. Create a new heading labeled with your IP address like this: ====1.2.3.4====
  3. Copy the table below under the new heading, your IP will be automatically entered.
  4. Add any notes to the Notes section; otherwise, leave this section blank. If these edits are in a foreign language wiki, note it here.
  5. Save the page.
  6. LOG IN, and add your user name with ~~~~ to the section "ADD YOUR USERNAME AND TIMESTAMP AFTER YOU LOG BACK IN"
  7. The last 2 cells are for the user/time stamps of the checkers and database changers. Please delete the text and leave blank.
  8. Have patience. The checkers and database changers will get around to it.

Table to Copy

Instructions for developers

  1. Log on to the machine which is the MySQL master
  2. change to the maintenance/ directory
  3. Delete attribute.log and attribute.sql if they are there from a previous run (they will be in the parent directory, probably)
  4. Run it with something like php attribute.php en wikipedia 216.103.211.240 "Daniel Quinlan". This will append a log entry to attribute.log, and some SQL statements to attribute.sql. Note that PHP doesn't work on ariel at the moment (2004-07-17). It's acceptable to run attribute.php on a slave machine, as long as the slave is up to date.
  5. If necessary, review attribute.sql, and delete any unnecessary SQL statements.
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each person
  7. Send the SQL file into the mysql client, making sure you are using the master database.
  8. Copy the contents of attribute.log to the wiki

67.106.48.170

I created a page in Spanish ("Extremos en la Tierra") that is a translation of a page that I created in English ("Extremes on Earth"). But I didn't realize that I had to have a different login for the Spanish Wikipedia. I've since created an account ("Val42") that is the same as my English username. At the time I originally entered this page, I was logged onto the same ISP. If you can (as an administrator) look up the IP address, I made some edits done from the same IP address to my English page interspersed with the edits to the Spanish page.

Frikle 00:34, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC) 211.30.47.233 My computer seems to give out a new IP address each time I log in, so before I made a user name, my contributions were under the following IP addresses: 211.30.43.60, 211.30.43.184, 211.30.51.79, 211.30.46.184 and it's these ones I'd like credited (as opposed to the current one which is just for today). It can be seen that my current contributions are in a similar style/subject matter but if it's too much of a technical/ID difficulty then please drop a message into my Talk page and I'll delete this. Thanks.

I can log in under a very close IP address if you like (usually 202.67.80.xxx or something like that), but you should be able to verify from the edits that they are indeed from me (these edits include the creation of my original user page).

Please change all my edits done as 67.120.208.74 to my account Ryjaz. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Confirm, please change! (hopefully my ip hasn't been changed since i made those changes as i use sbc yahoo and it is a dynamic ip address)

Would it be possible to change 12.233.149.168 and 206.65.37.136 to Tualha? The first is an old IP address at home which I'll probably never get again; they seem to use new ranges now. The second is from where I was working at the time, and I probably won't be back there either.

Evidence that these are the same person:

Evidence that they're me:

  • They both stopped about the same time Tualha started (November 11).
  • Tualha and 12.233.149.168 both wrote in Talk:Pregnancy and Talk:Audrey Tautou. The Tautou edits in particular look like the same person.
  • Tualha and 12.233.149.168 are both interested in articles on queer issues and people.

Please note that 206.65.37.136 made an edit to the sandbox on March 11 - that one is not me.
