IPv6倡议
The IPv6 initiative was initiated to fully prepare the global Wikimedia community for the launch of IPv6 on the websites. Originally started as an English Wikipedia WikiProject, the initiative is a global task requiring the coordination of all Wikimedia wikis.
概要
IPv6是IPv4互联网协议的新版本。新的地址格式为128位长，相比IPv4的32位，使地址空间扩大至的IPv4地址数量的两次平方。IPv4地址将不再足够，使得一个IPv4地址可能代表了许多不同的用户。
维基媒体基金会计划至少在2012年06月06日推出IPv6在各项目的启动，但一些维基内的程序代码及Toolserver软件需要重新编写以适应IPv6地址。而本地方针，特别是那些涉及到封禁用户的因为IPv6带来的变化而需要更新。
维基媒体项目上首次IPv6（匿名）编辑是MediaWiki.org上的这一次。IPv6在世界IPv6日启动后的数小时启用。首次对IPv6地址的非测试性封禁是simplewiki上的Mh7kJ（当时叫作Orashmatash）作出的这一次封禁。首次对IPv6地址的全域封禁（排除测试或过早的封禁）是Matanya作出的这一次封禁。
任务
- 更改以下程序代码，以适应IPv6和IPv6相关的政策变化：
- 更改Toolserver程序代码，以适应IPv6和IPv6相关的方针变化，包括但不限于：
Ensure Huggle works well with IPv6 (currently chokes on IPv6 anonymous edits)- Construct policies for dealing with IPv6, and revise old ones including but not limited to:
- Wikipedia:Blocking IP addresses - IPv6 blocking has different implications than IPv4 blocking.
- Wikipedia:CheckUser (global policy)
- Wikipedia:User pages (for dealing with IPv6 shared IP tags, etc.)
- Create a policy for IPv6 rangeblocks.
- Puppetise NfSen
- Resolve issues listed at en:User:Jasper Deng/IPv6
- Educate communities about such changes and how to deal with them.
协调
Essentially everyone has to be involved, especially given the purpose of Meta, including but not limited to:
- Stewards
- CheckUsers
- Staff
- Sysadmins
- Sysops, on all wikis
- Bureaucrats, on all wikis
- Any user with any form of global permissions, except global IP block exemption and bots
- Developers
