I'm thinking of a policy that says anyone who asks whether they've been checkusered must be told whether, why, and by whom, if they make the request within six months of the check. The request must come from the e-mail address the editor has added to their Wikipedia preferences. They may only ask whether that particular account has been checked. They need not be told the results of the check, in case that inadvertently implicates someone else, though they may be told it if no one else is involved.
Just out of curiosity, what kind of checkuser is one where "no one else is involved"?
It just does not make sense to me, please explain.
I did not write this. It was a copy paste of an email from Slim Virgin on this list. My comment was below Thatcher one.
