User talk:Devans00

{{unblock|As an AT&T dynamic IP and DNS broadband customer, I have to take whatever IP is handed out to me. I don't get to pick. I should not be blocked on an IP that could be assigned to any random person. Especially if I'm not the source of bad behavior. Even though page says "You are not blocked from reading pages, only from editing them", in fact I cannot view any articles. The block page just reloads when I click on red link to the article at the bottom of the page.}}

"Your user name or IP address has been blocked from editing. You were blocked by SlimVirgin for the following reason (see our blocking policy): Amorrow Your IP address is 71.141.3.30."

The block log doesn't show that IP as having been directly blocked [1], nor has your user account so I cannot see the source of your block. IP's get blocked to protect the integrity of the project, we cannot just ignore IPs seeking to damage wikipedia. You are not blocked from reading pages, as you say you click on a red link. Red links are pages which do not exist yet, i.e. nothing to read. If you click on a red link the default action is to take you to the edit screen so you can start the article if you can. So clicking on red links is actually an edit action hence the block message. --pgk(talk) 13:39, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Csix logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Csix logo.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated.

This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
