''This page is under construction.''

The source guidelines describe the narrow circumstances in which the logs of the CheckUser tool (a tool that records investigations into user accounts and IP addresses) could be modified, for example to remove private data exposed by accident. Keeping these logs intact protects the transparency and accountability of investigations.

This page is reserved for a future adaptation: WikiDeal intends to define equivalent rules if equivalent tooling is deployed on its infrastructure.
