==Task overview==
This task involves the work with making sure legal is comfortable with how we are planning to implement the VE as default A/B test
==Changes to communicate to legal==
**What about the schema is changing?**
- We are added a new field – `anonymous_user_token` – to the [EditAttemptStep]( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schema:EditAttemptStep) schema
- The `anonymous_user_token` field will contain a temporarily-assigned unique ID
- The `anonymous_user_token` field will only affect anonymous users included in the A/B test.
- These changes are reflected in this diff: [Add anonymous user token field](https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Schema%3AEditAttemptStep&type=revision&diff=19154569&oldid=18953228)
**Why are we making these changes?**
//Peter to fill in//
==Questions for legal==
- By further de-anonymizing IP editors, would we be putting editors to these wikis at risk?
-- If yes, are there certain wikis in [this list](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1juUIPPUkeJn7G7Y3nNOY66uiL-1pD3KYYi1EcI0DXVQ/edit#gid=0) that we should exclude IP from being included in the test?
- Is it okay for us to create a persistent identifier for anonymous contributors (doing this this would make anonymous contributors "less anonymous")?
=="Done"==
- [ ] Send legal request for instrumentation approval
- [ ] Legal has given us feedback about what – if any – changes need to be made to the [test design](https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T221195) for it to comply with Foundation policies.
