How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Changes made at List of Australia Test cricket records
I noticed -57,319 bytes of changes made to this article by you on 12 January 2022 with the very esoteric "updated, cleanup, added links to matches" edit tag line. While the updates and added links to matches seems perfectly fine, the "cleanup" part of your edits seems rather harsh. A number of encyclopedic record tables have been removed:-
 * Most runs conceded in an innings
 * Fewest runs conceded in an innings
 * Fastest runs getter
 * Most runs in each batting position
 * Most runs against each team
 * Highest individual score – progression of record
 * Highest individual score against each team
 * Highest average in each batting position
 * Most sixes
 * Most fours
 * Most wickets against each team
 * Fastest wicket taker
 * Best bowling figures against each team
 * Hat-tricks
 * Most dismissals in a match
 * All-round records
 * 1000 runs and 100 wickets
 * 250 runs and 20 wickets in a series

Now some of these tables might have been worth a "cleanup", but to delete all of them? Seems OTT. Would love to know your justification on why it shouldn't be rolled back. Storm machine (talk) 05:19, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
