Temporary Accounts will be rolled out in the next few months on all projects. Learn about what they are, how they will impact you and what you need to do. This project is very much in development stages. We will be gathering feedback as much as disseminating information about the work.
Temporary Accounts have been a work in progress over the last few years. The goal for this legally-mandated project is to replace IP addresses with auto-generated temporary accounts. IP addresses will be accessible only to those users who require access for anti-vandalism purposes. This is a widespread change that will impact many tools and extensions. It will also impact anti-vandalism workflows across our projects. Our goal for this session is to spread the word about this change and gather feedback or questions about this work.

Temporary Accounts are being introduced to improve the privacy of our unregistered editors. However, this work has the potential to impact many critical community tools and workflows. Our goal is to ensure that functionaries and anti-vandalism patrollers are able to do their work effectively and efficiently.

My first edit to Wikipedia was in 2010 as part of a school book review, for which my classmates and I earned the following talk page comment: “This isn't a school book review; it's a Wikipedia article.” I hope my edit quality has improved since then!
My work focuses on data privacy. I advise on inquiries and requests we receive from the public, the community, the Foundation, and other entities.
