Template:Checkuser log/doc

The checkuser log template is to be used on the checkuser logs to format the entries.

Type
The type of checkuser carried out. Either: ip (for getting IPs from a username), user (for getting usernames from an IP), or edit (for getting edits for either an IP or a username)

Date
The date and time that the checkuser was carried out. This will be converted to a consistent format in UTC.

Checker
The user carrying out the check. Do not include User: prefix.

User
The user being checked. Either a username or an IP address, depending on the choice in type.

Reason
The reason given for the check. Preferably the same reason as given on the checkuser form.

Follow
If you followed up an IP check with a user check (or vice versa) then define this variable. If you didn't do any follow up checks do not define the variable.

This is to prevent usernames and IPs being connected by non-checkusers.
