MusikAnimal closed subtask T145912: Create new Special:RangeContributions page to support viewing contributions across an IP range as Declined.

Special:RangeContributions was a feature Community Tech planned some years ago but is unlikely to ever materialize. External tools such as https://whois.toolforge.org/ exist for free and quick IP lookups. Closing.
