From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Attention:

This IP address, 168.103.242.198, is registered to Qwest, an Internet service provider through which numerous individual users may connect to the Internet via proxy. This IP address may be reassigned to a different person when the current user disconnects.

For this reason, a message intended for one person may be received by another. 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, in which case, 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.

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.
IT staff who want to monitor vandalism from this IP address can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

[edit] Your edit to Chinese people

Your recent edit to Chinese people (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior.

[edit] Final warning

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to Chinese people, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Badagnani 19:02, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

You have been temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our neutral point of view policy will not be tolerated. —Angr 20:24, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] September 2007

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to New York City. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Tim Pierce 05:50, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out (or delete portions of) page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to User talk:168.103.242.198, you will be blocked from editing. —Ignatzmicetalkcontribs 15:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make any unconstructive edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.

Please do not remove content from your talk page; other users will utilize this page as a way of seeing past discussion, and removing things can be seen as disruptive if you appear to be trying to hide something. You may wish to consider archiving old discussions; take a look at the move page if you would like to learn more about moving and renaming articles. Tim Pierce 01:37, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Editing talk pages

If you read the policy carefully, it is specifically referring to named user pages. As the user and user talk pages of IP's are used to communicate to many editors, the warnings and other notices need to remain. -- Avi 20:34, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, because when a named user blanks their page, it is proof that they have received the message. When an anon user blanks the page, there is no proof that the intended recipient of the message (be it a warning or an inquiry or a whatnot) received it. Furthermore, user talk pages should be archived, not blanked. I would think that older messages on an IP page (e.e six months or a year old) can be archived. Lastly, information tags such as the {{ISP}} or {{anonblock}} need to remain for maintenance purposes, as well as for the benefit of new users of the ISP. -- Avi 15:18, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My user name

I'd prefer not to gloss it in detail, but no, it's not taken from the OSC character (unless my subconscious is playing tricks on me again...). Alai 03:45, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Ganymede (moon). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. AngelOfSadness talk 20:22, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Your edit in itself wasn't vandalism but could you kindly explain the edit summary. AngelOfSadness talk 22:13, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
