[WikiEN-l] Arbitration Committee members granted checkuser tool

[Chris Jenkinson]

Hi all,

Seeing as there hasn't been much public discussion on this (at least on 
the English-language Wikipedia) I thought it would be a good idea to let 
you all know that Raul654, Fred Bauder, Kelly Martin, The Epopt and 
Jayjg have all been granted access to the checkuser tool[1] (the tool 
which allows for checking of sockpuppets by giving access to IP 
addresses, including those of signed-in Wikipedians).

According to the CheckUser policy[2], editors approved by the 
Arbitration Committee may be granted access to the checkuser tool.

The Arbitration Committee decided who would get access to the tool on 
their private mailing list[3].
