##Goal
IP addresses reveal a whole host of important information that help users decide their next steps when taking an action during patrolling and other activities on the wikis. The aim of this feature is to surface some of the information that WHOIS on an IP address provides next to the IP in the wiki interface itself so users are able to successfully perform their duties without any disruption when IPs are masked.
##Features
* IP Information is available from two places:
** **Popups** that appear next to IPs on some predefined pages (T268657)
*** This is to provide quick at-a-glance information needed while patrolling to identify if an editor looks suspicious. This popup will contain the following information: //Blocks, Contributions (local edits), Location, Organization//
** IP Information box on **Special:Contributions** page for the IP address
*** This is to provide detailed information if a case warrants in-depth investigation. This box will contain the following information: //Location, Organization, ISP, Connection Method, Connection Owner, Proxy, Static/Dynamic, Number of devices on IP, Blocks, Contributions (local and global edits)//
* All users are required to request access to this information. The request will be automatically granted but it will be logged in a database so we can track who had access to the IP information at any given time. Users will also be able to give up their access, by visiting Special:Preferences.
* Users with different permissions will be able to see different levels of information.
** Location, Organization and ISP will only be visible to admins and above (checkusers, sysops etc)
** Everything else will be visible to autoconfirmed and above users.
** Non autoconfirmed users will not be able to obtain access to the IP Information.
