[edit] Please do not block
Tomphil, please do not block this IP address. I'm very sorry about the vandalism that I appear to be doing, but the vandalism is actually a result of several different people's edits. This IP is that of a guest computer in a hotel, and therefore there is no real way to trace vandals from here. Again, my apologies, 192.251.125.85
- Hi. I have no power to block any users; all I can do is to issue warnings where vandalism takes place. You may be best to place a message on the talk page of this IP to the effect of what you wrote above. Hope this helps. TomPhil (talk) 20:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Similar story here
I am trying to find out how the Teasing article got changed. I can see that the edit said something about teasing being used to refer to marijuana but I can assure you I hate all drug users and would never write something like that.
The IP address I have now is indeed the IP responsible for the edit, but the edit happened a few months ago and my IP changes every week or so. It was probably someone who uses the same cheap, slow ISP as me. I always login when I edit articles.

- Hi. I've moved your message to what I believe to be a better place on my talk page to keep things tidy. Hope you don't mind.
- With some providers IP addresses do change regularly, and therefore it is very difficult to track who is making edits; obviously sometimes people see messages meant for other people.
- The edit was not concerning drugs use, click here to see the edit.
- It seems to have been the only edit made by the IP address, so I wouldn't worry about it. You are doing the right thing by always logging in when you edit. TomPhil (talk) 20:52, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Help fight systematic bias
Dear TomPhil,
I would like to draw your attention to the discussion currently ongoing at Talk:Popsicle. If you are interested in helping to counter systematic bias towards North America, and instead establish Wikipedia as an international website, then please feel welcome to contribute with your opinions. Thank you. EuroSong talk 13:52, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the message. Glad to see that it's been changed now, but seems like there's a lot of work still to do. Keep up the good work! TomPhil (talk) 20:17, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Euroskeptic userboxes
I really like your userboxes!!! --Boris Johnson VC 11:49, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks very much! I loved the one on your page about the EU and the South Pole - but perhaps Pluto would have been more appropriate?! TomPhil (talk) 20:15, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Feel free to modify it if you like...--Boris Johnson VC 16:30, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
