Attention:

This host, wdcsun20.usdoj.gov, is registered to the United States Department of Justice, and may be shared by multiple users. If the organization uses proxy servers or firewalls, this IP address may in fact represent many users at many physical computers.

For this reason, a message intended for one person may be received by another and a block may be shared by many. If you are editing from this address and are frustrated by irrelevant messages, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself. In some cases, you may temporarily be unable to create an account due to efforts to fight vandalism; if so, please see here.

If you are autoblocked repeatedly, we encourage you to contact your Internet service provider or IT department and ask them to contact Wikimedia's XFF project about enabling X-Forwarded-For HTTP headers on their proxy servers so that our editing blocks will affect only the intended user. Alternatively, you can list the IP at Wikipedia:WikiProject on XFFs.

Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking - if a block is needed, administrators should consider using a soft block with the template {{anonblock|optional comment}} as the block reason.

Note: In the event of vandalism from this address, abuse reports may be sent to your network administrator for further investigation.

[edit] WELCOME

Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed your edits at the Richard M. Daley page. You seem to have removed a large amount of information that had been sourced and referenced. Generally, it is a good idea to discuss such major changes on a page's talk page first. I hope you will continue to contribute to wikipedia! TMS63112 20:40, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I have never visited the RIchard M. Daley page before, but for some reason the above message showed up on the history page of an entry I recently created. I totally agree with what you say that discussion should precede major changes. Sbettwy 13 January 2007 (SWB)
