Whether you're here because you like browsing userpages or because you want to leave me a message, come say hi![edit]
This is a very unusual CheckUser request. It's been raised at WP:AN#Is there a counsellor in the house? that this user claims to be a 13-year-old who wants to commit suicide by a painless manner. Obviously, this might be a hoax. Obviously, there might be no way to trace him/her. But I'd like to request a CheckUser to see if, in fact, any information can be yielded that might allow someone here (if legal) to track down this person's location and have his/her parents or authorities contacted. Obviously, there are legal issues which may need to be addressed, but I think a CheckUser needs to be the first step. --Nlu (talk) 08:00, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
- I know from previous experience with suicide threats on Wikipedia that if an IP can be uncovered, the legal staff can and will do everything to track the person down, including contacting the ISP. Essjay Talk • Contact 08:16, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
- CheckUser does not reveal any association with other users. I have the IP if the right people need it, but will not post it here. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 09:22, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
- Bowlhover appears to be located outside the US, which may complicate matters slightly. ➥the Epopt 15:41, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
