IP editing -- context
we were chatting at WP:Teahouse I was curious about the context/reasoning for IP editing on wikipedia e.g. why do it legitimately , are there risks with normal editing, etc.
Also how does one retain a stable IP? do you do you edit from a VPN or static IP host somewhere? Tonymetz (talk) 17:41, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
- I don't retain a static IP, @Tonymetz, it changes at the whim of fate and whatever service provider I'm currently using. I don't mind. For a semi-humorous explanation of why I prefer it, see Association of Good Faith Wikipedians Who Remain Unregistered on Principle. In a few months, IP masking is going to be implemented (see here) which may or may not change how I and a few other long-term IP editors interact with Wikipedia. We shall see! 57.140.16.57 (talk) 17:48, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

This is the discussion page for an anonymous user who has not created an account yet, or who does not use it. We therefore have to use the numerical IP address to identify them. Such an IP address can be shared by several users. If you are an anonymous user and feel that irrelevant comments have been directed at you, please create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other anonymous users.
