'''CheckUser''' is a special group and tool which allows its wielders (called {{int:Group-checkuser}}) to check users' IP addresses, user-agents, along with some other information. This permission is only used when investigating sockpuppetry or platform abuse and is not assignable by local bureaucrats. CheckUser is, by policy, restricted for use only by [[Special:MyLanguage/Stewards|Stewards]] and [[Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety|Trust and Safety]].

'''Oversight''' is a special group which allows its wielders (called {{int:Group-oversight}}) to completely suppress and hide log entries and revisions from everyone who is not an {{int:Group-oversight}}, including local administrators and even Stewards themselves when they do not have the <code>oversight</code> flag on. It is typically only used to hide personal information and is not assignable by local bureaucrats. Oversight is, by policy, restricted for use only by [[Special:MyLanguage/Stewards|Stewards]] and [[Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety|Trust and Safety]].
'''Suppressor''' is a special group which allows its wielders (called {{int:Group-Suppressor}}) to completely suppress and hide log entries and revisions from everyone who is not an {{int:Group-Suppressor}}, including local administrators and even Stewards themselves when they do not have the <code>Suppressor</code> flag on. It is typically only used to hide personal information and is not assignable by local bureaucrats. Oversight is restricted for use only by [[Stewards]]
