May 17, 2004 - There's a new experimental feature to help identify users who make changes to a page.

It's based on cookies.

   * Go to http://mini.net/wru.cgi and enter your initials (up to 8 letters/digits) and email address.
   * You'll receive an email with a confirmation URL in it.
   * Visiting that URL will lead you to a page which sets a cookie in your browser.
   * From them on, '''page changes will be tagged with your initials''' on the [Recent Changes] page.
Note:
   * If you use wiki.tcl.tk as URL, you'll have to set things up through http://wiki.tcl.tk/wru.cgi instead.
   * If you use both, you'll need to go through this exercise '''twice''' (sorry, that's a cookie limitation).
FYI:
   * The cookie contains initials, email address, IP address of request, and a special checksum.
   * It's used for precisely one purpose: to maintain a minimal identity / traceability, in page edits.
   * There is no database (just a log), this stores data in your browser, not on this site.
