[edit] Welcome!

Hello, Richardwooding, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
Happy editing!

[edit] Please unblock me

{{unblock}} The reason I was blocked was provided as follows:

"Your user name or IP address has been blocked from editing. You were blocked by Netsnipe for the following reason (see our blocking policy): Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Adriaan 1". The reason given for Adriaan 1's block is: "Use of 72.232.98.64 to vandalise userpages.".

Your IP address is 198.54.202.254. "

I am sure that the IP address blocked is an IP address belonging to an upstream service provider (please note that South Africa at the moment has a Telekom monopoly), if this is the case it is likely that a very large amount of users have been blocked, I do not know and am not associated with "Adriaan 1".

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reasons:

Collateral damage: You were hit with the autoblocker tool, which blocked the underlying IP address of a recently-blocked user.
