[edit] Help please

I have been blocked from editing apparently because I am an AOL user. I even tried to use a secure bypass that someone suggested. Can anyone release these blocks? Here is a copy of one of the block messages. Thank you. GwenW 05:13, 1 August 2006 (UTC) -- notice, not Eleanor of Aquitaine.

Your user name or IP address has been blocked from editing. You were blocked by User:Pschemp for the following reason (see our blocking policy): Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Prnstr6996". The reason given for Prnstr6996's block is: "Your username (Eleanor_of_Aquitaine) has been blocked indefinitely because it is either inappropriate or too similar to an existing username (see our blocking policy for more information). Your IP address is 207.200.116.134.

This is not because you are an AOL user, but because you were caught in the autoblock. At the moment you are sharing the same IP as a vandal. When vandals are blocked, it blocks the underlying IP. Your misfortune in being assigned the same IP is the problem. I have unblocked the underlying IP, you should be able to edit normally. pschemp | talk 05:20, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of unassessed articles tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 20:47, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
