User talk:17.255.240.78

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This IP address is that of User:Licorne, who has been banned from Wikipedia by order of ArbCom (see User talk:Licorne). If you are not the above user, please feel free to contact an admin. As this IP may be occasionally used by other people, blocks should be set for non-infinite, though long, periods of time. Other admins should feel free to block at will if it appears to be Licorne evading his block (any edits to Einstein-related pages are probably Licorne). --Fastfission 00:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

Currently, you are editing without a username. You can continue to do so as you are not required to log in to Wikipedia to read and write articles, however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 17.255.240.78). Logging in does not require any personal details. There are many other benefits for logging in to Wikipedia. For now, if you are stuck, you can type {{helpme}} on this page and an experienced Wikipedian will be around to answer any questions you may have.

Please note these points:

  • Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
  • Please use a neutral point of view to edit the article; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do that.
  • Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted texts, advertisement messages, and texts that are not related to that article. Both adding such unreasonable information and editing articles maliciously are considered vandalism. A user who repeatedly vandalises articles will be blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, ask me on my Talk page – I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia.

[edit] 17.255.240.78, 66.194.104.5, and 69.22.98.146

FYI, the following is from Talk:Henri Poincaré:

Per Wikipedia's policy on sock puppet voting, it is important that 17.255.240.78, 66.194.104.5, and 69.22.98.146 declare whether they are different people or just one person with different IP addresses. Failure to make that declaration now may result in the IP addresses being permanently blocked. The Rod 18:20, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Likely sockpuppet of User:Licorne

Edits like this make me suspect that this user is a likely sockpuppet of User:Licorne used to evade his block. --Fastfission 01:44, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
