			[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Autoblock Autoblock] An autoblock is an automatic block of an IP address, done by the MediaWiki software. Autoblocks are the result of an attempt to edit wiki from an IP address recently used by a blocked user.
			Each time a user edits wiki, the IP address used to connect to the site is recorded by the MediaWiki software that powers the wiki. A log of IP addresses used by every user is kept privately, accessible only by users with checkuser access to the MediaWiki software. When a blocked user attempts to edit the site, the IP from which they are editing is "autoblocked," so that they may not make the same edit anonymously or under a different user name. If another user then attempts to use that autoblocked IP, they are autoblocked as well, and any other IPs that they may attempt to use while blocked, are autoblocked as well. Then other users who use those IPs may also be blocked, and onward. In some situations, this system can spiral and many users may be autoblocked even if they did nothing blockworthy.

			[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CheckUser Extension:CheckUser] CheckUser is an extension that allows a user (with the checkuser permission) to check which IPs are used by a given username and which usernames are used by a given IP, without having to run queries directly against the database by hand. The extension is running live on all Wikimedia wikis.
