Hello. I'm sorry it upset you to find out that Wikia can see the IP addresses of contributors to wikia.

However, I'm afraid that this is not unique to Wikia - pretty much any website you visit records your IP. In a similar fashion, almost anybody or any company you call on your phone will see your phone number, when you send an email people see your email address, and anybody to whom you mail a letter will see the postmark with the city where it was mailed.

In all cases you can take steps to hide or obscure your true information (IP, phone number, email, postmark) if you are concerned with protecting it.

If you have specific concerns about privacy and Wikia, please feel free to ask at Special:Contact!
