 Image:Info-pictogram.png Attention:

This is the User talk page for an unregistered user or a user that has not logged in. This IP address, 163.1.146.192, belongs to one of the University of Oxford Web Cache Servers and as such is shared by at least several thousand distinct users; irrelevant comments may be directed to other users of this IP. Please bear this in mind when considering blocking this IP and/or indiscriminate reversion of its contributions. All comments should be posted on this IP's talk page.

If you are the unregistered user concerned, 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 such irrelevant comments, consider that you could avoid them by creating an account for yourself.
