A log records each instance of a certain type of action executed on Grand Theft Wiki, such as a file upload or a new user being created.

To access Grand Theft Wiki's logs, go to Special:Logs. The page allows you to select which log to read, and select more specific parameters within your chosen log.

Some logs list actions which only can be performed by a member of staff, such as deleting pages, blocking users and altering user rights.
