It would be nice if IPs of logged in edits were made public, as with logged out, as then individuals could take the initiative in contacting ISPs about abuse.
I think so too. I don't mind publishing the IP addresses and log entries of the vandalbot, which is why I made this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia%3AVandalbot_log_entries
Jeronim also made a list of IP addresses being used by Wik:
Wik is using open proxies, so we don't have the originating IP address. I can however obtain log entries from back in May, these should be sufficient for his ISP to identify him. The idea is that the ISP would be able to log the connections from his computer to the proxies, and we can log the connections from the proxies to us, thereby establishing proof of identity. I'm hesitant to publish Wik's IP address from the May logs without proof in advance that he is operating the vandalbot. However I have released this data to a German speaker who wished to complain on our behalf.
