User talk:216.231.162.9

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Attention:

This IP address, 216.231.162.9, is registered to Mebtel Communications of Mebane, North Carolina, 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.
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.

NOTICE: Shared IP Address: Today I visited my mother's home, only to find out that her IP's talk page had many warnings. Because she is computer illiterate, I am positive that this IP must be shared by many users in the Gulf Shores, Alabama area. Thankfully, I have a login account, so banning this IP will not affect me, but please keep in mind when blocking this IP in the future that it is shared by many, many users. — Eric Herboso 04:30, 7 March 2007 (UTC) ONLY BLOCK THIS IP ADDRESS IN EXTREME CASES OF VANDALISM. -- Eric Herboso 05:38, 11 May 2007 (UTC)


Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

Currently, you are editing without a username. You can continue to do so, as you are not required to log in to Wikipedia to read and edit articles; however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 216.231.162.9). Logging in does not require any personal details, and there are many other benefits for logging in.

When you edit pages:

  • Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
  • Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
  • Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such content or editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. For now, if you are stuck, you can click the edit this page tab above, type {{helpme}} in the edit box, and then click Save Page; an experienced Wikipedian will be around shortly to answer any questions you may have. Also feel free to ask a question on my talk page. I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia.

Remember, if you log in, then you will not be blocked if other users on this IP continue to vandalize Wikipedia. I highly suggest that you get a username. — Eric Herboso 05:38, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | rangeblocks | unblock | contribs | deleted contribs) has asked to be unblocked, but an administrator has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock request while you are blocked.

Request reason: "Bogus biographies - Hello Wikipedia Admins, my name is Brad. Me and many of my friends recently attempted to pull a large scale "bogus biography" stunt. We, of course, failed in doing this due to the promptness of the counter-vandalism team here. We thought it was funny at the time. However, I recently realized how much I could contribute to Wikipedia, and was deeply saddened by the editing block placed on my IP. I can account for many of the cases of vandalism by this IP (mainly the Richard Carney, Larry Fish, and Derny Bullard articles). However, I must emphasize that there are certainly one or more vandals operating though this IP that have no connection to myself. It would please me very much if you would lift this block if only for a trial period, so I may contribute constructively to Wikipedia. --Bradley Bittinger Jr. -- 216.231.162.9 (talk • contribs • logs) 02:41, 29 July 2006 (UTC)"

Decline reason: "(1) Unfortunately, the damage being done is too serious for an unblock. The block will expire in a month; why not come back then, and stop vandalizing? Mangojuicetalk 05:25, 29 July 2006 (UTC) (2) While blocked, 216.231.162.9 (talk • contribs • logs) impersonate an administrator and misused a template to post at 02:43, 29 July 2006 the false message that "{{unblock|This IP address has been blocked temporarily.CheckUser evidence has determined that this IP address is being used abusively;the address has been blocked to prevent further abuse.}}"— Jreferee t/c 16:17, 12 November 2007 (UTC)"

Please make any further unblock requests by using the {{unblock}} template. However, abuse of the template may result in your talk page being protected.

vandalism

  • Decline reason:

You were blocked directly, and not autoblocked. As stated when you added this template to your talk page (see here), you are using the wrong template and therefore your case for unblock will not be reviewed fully since you have not provided a reason for unblocking. Please use {{unblock|your reason here}} instead. Daniel.Bryant [ T • C ] 06:47, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Request reason: "I did not vandalize anything from this computer, you have the wrong guy. -- 216.231.162.9 00:40, 11 November 2006 (UTC) "

Decline reason: "You very likely didn't, but someone else who shares your internet connection did, repeatedly. Unfortunately, we've had to put this block in place to protect our encyclopedia. I do have some good news for you, however: if you can find another web connection and register an account (say, from home, school, your local library, wherever), then you'll be able to edit over this block while logged in. So please don't let the unfortunate actions of a few bad apples hold you back from everything Wikipedia has to offer -- registering is free, easy, quick, and will let you edit freely and hopefully avoid collateral damage such as this in the future. Thanks for your time. -- Luna Santin 08:28, 12 November 2006 (UTC)"

  • Decline reason:

You have not been autoblocked. However, you have been blocked directly as stated in your block log. Since you have not provided a reason for being unblocked, your request has been declined. You may provide a reason for being unblocked by adding {{unblock|your_reason_here}} to your talk page. -- Yamla 19:30, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Request reason: "I have never vandalised any Wikipedia articles. My participation in this site has been limited to a few minor edits, but these do not constitute any form of vandalism. From what I understand, I have a shared IP address, and though someone else using this IP may be a vandal, I believe that a 6 month ban that prevents the creation of a private account is extremely harsh and rather reckless. It does not take into consideration the users of this IP that are innocent of any wrong doing and prevents them from ameliorating the problem in a timely fashion. I would like to see this ban lifted or at lessened to allow for the creation of a new account. Thank you. -- 216.231.162.9 20:48, 4 August 2007 (UTC) "
