A..19 Log
The Log Admin Tool is where you view and manage the activity logs. The first page of the Log Admin Tool is a simple list of links to the different logged item views and actions you can take.
The logged item views are:
- View list of all logged records
- This link displays a list of all log records recorded to date. The list includes information such as the action taken, the item acted upon, the person who performed the action, and the time and date. If extended logging is enabled, a `More' link leads to extra details for each specific item. This list includes the items shown in the three views below as well as any others.
- View list of deleted comments
- This link displays a list of all log records for comment deletion. The details are as above.
- View list of deleted stories

The actions are:
