This IP address, 156.33.96.28, is registered to Information Systems, United States Senate and is shared by multiple users. Comments left on this page may be received by other users of this IP and appear to be irrelevant. Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking. In the event of vandalism from this address, efforts will be made to contact Information Systems, United States Senate to report abuse.

If you are an unregistered user operating from this address, note that this need not necessarily be the IP address of your machine. In many cases, it turns out to be the IP address of a proxy server that communicates between your browser and the Wikimedia servers. Such proxies are shared among a huge number of users compared to the number of persons using your particular machine. If you are frustrated by irrelevant comments appearing here, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself. However, you will still be unable to edit Wikipedia while the IP you are using is blocked.

Hello. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Otherwise, people might consider your edits to be vandalism. Thank you. Petros471 21:30, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for you reply on my talk page. I'd be happy to try and answer any questions you might have about editing Wikipedia. For the fastest response leave them on my talk page, or for a question about a specific article on the article's own talk page. Cheers, Petros471 16:34, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
PS. It helps if you sign comments by typing ~~~~, for easy tracking of the conversation.
  • I've done an end of month archive to my talk page, so you can see our conversation there if you need to. Feel free to post any further questions on my main talk page. You might have seen that I posted this on the RfC page. I would have given a fuller argument if I could (failed due to tech trouble), however if you wish to continue contributing to Wikipedia (you are very welcome to do so, as long as do make sure potentially controversial changes are discussed first) I recommend you register an account as described below.
