  There is a whole bunch of API endpoints and Special Pages on the Wikidata 
side of things that do changes that currently cause an anon user's IP address 
to be logged and displayed. Many, but not all of them go through 
`repo/includes/EditEntity/MediaWikiEditEntity.php` and I guess WIP example: 
Create a temporary user from ApiSetClaim (I57075e88) 
<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/Wikibase/+/966585/> 
outlines the fundamental work that will need to be done, eventually.
  
  @Tchanders: It is still unclear to me what the general plan is for moving 
forward with them. Or where the overall effort for this is being coordinated. I 
really would appreciate some pointers here if you can provide them 🙏.
  
  Noting my confusion about a bunch of things in more detail, doesn't have to 
be cleared up here, but probably answers should exist at some point somewhere:
  I see T349219: [M] Investigate: Which workflows create an IP actor? 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T349219>, but is this for doing due 
diligence that no workflow is being overlooked, or is that for creating a list 
to actually do the work? I saw T340540#9201679 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T340540#9201679> which seems looks like we 
need to touch every current and future editing-related endpoint for this. I 
also saw T336187: [S] Investigate: Creating temp user on non-EditPage actions 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T336187>, but I'm unsure what specifically 
follows from that.
  
  If we miss an endpoint, is there some safety-mechanism planned/implemented 
that ensures that requests fail that would create a ip-edit/change without also 
creating a temporary account?
  
  The task T325592: Start a technical documentation page for IP Masking  
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T325592> sounds like it might help, but it 
has not seen any movement since it was created roughly a year ago.
