未登録編集者のための臨時アカウントは新しい種類の利用者アカウントです。
IP addresses of unregistered editors will no longer be publicly visible.Only those who fight spam, vandalism, harassment and disinformation will have access to IP addresses.
現在、ウィキメディアのウィキ群ではウィキメディア アカウントがなくても、ログインをしなくても編集できます。
MediaWiki, the software behind Wikimedia projects, records and exposes your IP address in its public log if you edit without logging in.Anyone seeking your IP address will find it.
しかし、IP アドレスはその人がどこで編集をしていたか、その人が誰か、どんなデバイスを使っていたかを特定する手がかりになりえます。
This is of particular concern if you are editing from a territory where our wikis are deemed controversial.Publishing your IP address may allow others to locate you.
個人情報保護をめぐる法規類や標準類の変更（例：一般データ保護規則とそれに始まる個人情報保護に関するグローバルな対話）に照らし、ウィキメディア財団法務部門（Legal team）は利用者の個人情報保護のため IP アドレスを一般公開しないことに決定しました。しかしながら、ウィキ群の保護を目的としてそれらの閲覧が必要な人には、今後もアクセス権を付与します。However, we will continue to give access to users who need to see them in order to protect the wikis.
この変更により、現行の荒らし対策の作業手順に影響が出ることは承知しています。IP アドレスの秘匿化後は、荒らし、なりすまし、編集者同士の衝突、その他の良くない行為者を識別してブロックするツールへのアクセスを維持し、あるいはツールの開発に尽力する所存です。We are committed to developing tools or maintaining access to tools that can identify and block vandals, sock puppets, editors with conflicts of interest and other bad actors after IPs are masked.
: Global blocks are here. Temporary accounts on testwiki
Deployment on testwiki. We have rolled out temporary accounts to testwiki. Anyone who edits testwiki without an account will see their edits being attributed to a temporary account. We would like to emphasize that this is an early release, and things may break. This deployment makes it possible for some teams (like Data Platform Engineering or Apps) to start adjusting their code to temporary accounts. We aren't planning on introducing temporary accounts on any other wiki just yet. Instead, we will invite patrollers from different communities to testwiki and ask them to familiarize themselves with the new experience and share opinions with us. Currently, only testwiki admins can see the implemented patroller workflows (such as revealing IPs and view IP contributions) for temporary accounts. Over the next few weeks we will broaden the access to allow more users to test temporary accounts related workflows on testwiki.
Global blocking. We are really glad to announce that we launched global account blocks on all wikis (T17294). A request for this feature was first documented in 2008. It was also the top6 feature in the stewards' wishlist from 2015. Now, stewards can globally block regular and temporary account users. Read our previous update to learn more about the expected impact of global blocks.
Wikimania. We will be hosting sessions "Temporary Accounts are coming" (add to your favorite sessions) and "Getting better at blocking bad activity on the wikis" (add to your favorite sessions). Register to Wikimania to add sessions to favorites. Please join us in-person or virtually, and don't hesitate to get in touch with our team members during the event!
AbuseFilter. Some existing edit/abuse filters set up by community members on different wikis will need to be updated to work with temporary accounts. (See our instructions for developers on how to do this.) After the deployment of temporary accounts on a given wiki, abuse filters using data about IP together with related logs will be hidden from general view. It will be possible for admins to view and edit these filters. Later, we may change the group of users with access to the impacted filters, to potentially include technical editors who don't have any other advanced permissions.
