Meta:Requests for CheckUser information
- Procedure
- Please read the CheckUser policy before asking for a check.
- When adding new requests, please use the {{checkuser}} template to list the user names in question and {{checkip}} for IP addresses, which simplifies investigation.
- List your request at the bottom of the "Requests for Meta-Wiki only" heading.
- When asking for a check we need to know:
- why do you believe that the accounts are related (please present evidence for that with the help of diffs, etc.),
- why, if the accounts are related, they are being used abusively, in violation of policy; and
- why a block or other measures can't be justified without the need of technical evidence.
- Important
- Local checkusers
- Note: To request checkuser access, see Steward requests/Permissions.
- Note: To request information for other wikis, see Steward requests/Checkuser.

Both made spam edits to Talk:Wikimedia News, which are less than an hour apart and very similar in tone. They are likely operated by the same person or group of people. Please check for sleepers and perform range blocks as necessary. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 00:48, 5 February 2026 (UTC)
