Attention:

This host, bluebell.tpl.toronto.on.ca, is used by Toronto Public Library and may be shared by multiple users using public terminals. In the case of organizations using 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. 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 we invite you to try again at a later time or from a different computer.)

In the event of vandalism from this address, efforts will be made to contact Toronto Public Library to report network abuse.

Public terminals may have set expiry times (usually 30 minutes or 60 minutes), so if blocking the IP please bear this in mind.


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] Please read this before leaving messages on this page

This is not the user page of any one user. This IP address is shared by a large number of people as this is a public library with 100 or so internet terminals. Any warnings you may place may not even be read by those responsible for any vandalism!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.30.202.19 (talkcontribs) 13:51, December 13, 2006

The above statement really does not matter, as repeated vandalism from an IP warrants blocking regardless of the number of people using it. -Kukini 20:43, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Yes Kukini, it does, does, does matter. The vandals are unlikely going to stick around to read your warnings. But the comment above was placed there to let people like yourself know that this IP address is shared by a number of different people and they are not all committing vandalism. You removed this message I had left earlier saying it was unsigned attack. What part of it was the attack? Where I asked you to use some commong sense? You seem to have a real dictatorial streak! (Is saying that an attack?) It appears that you really want to silence those who criticize your behaviour! 192.30.202.18 16:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC) (Someone who shares this IP adress, without committing any vandalism.)
Regardless, if someone from this IP is vandalizing, a message will be left here to warn them to stop. That message will also be seen by others at this IP, but what other alternative is there? We have a policy that we will issue warnings before blocking the IP. So, despite the message above, we will continue to leave messages on this page when warranted. Fan-1967 21:17, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Vandalism from IP addresses is handled differently from vandalism by named users. As a rule, admins don't block IP vandals unless the vandalism is presently ongoing with recent warnings (within the past hour or so). The upside of this policy is that innocent users are protected. The downside is that anonymous users get away with a lot of vandalism, causing tremendous amount of unnecessary work for the rest of us. Why not take two minutes and register a username, so the issue is moot? Raymond Arritt 22:16, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
