Thanks for the link.

Comments section get the more activity than Message Walls and Forums, since the article is the subject. I would hope there will be an update by the staff. There are people who are confused about "A Wikia contributor", believing it to be 'one person' making the comment rather than individual people with different IPs. Then you have the people who comment to themselves in an attempt to pretend they are two persons.

eta - And yes, with the dev code, you can only see the IPs if you are signed-in with a user account, if you are not signed in you will only see the generic name given to the IP. However, even signed-out you can see the address on Message Walls and Forums. If it is revealed everywhere else (like page History for example) then it might as well be for the Comments.
