[edit] Shared address & warnings

This IP address belongs to a major employer with 120,000 staff - apologies if an unknown colleague is misbehaving. --62.25.109.194 15:58, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Quoted for emphasis. Posting warnings and angry comments is not going to have much effect on IP vandals (and pesters the thousands of non-vandals at the same IP. --62.25.109.194 16:36, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

The warnings are unfortunately a minor nuisance compared to the problems caused by the repeated, widespread vandalism and spam coming from this address. Creating your own account is a simple way of avoiding being pestered by these warnings. If you could give us the name of the company in question, the people at WP:ABUSE could go some way to preventing further vandalism. Aquilina 16:55, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

I concur; it would help a great deal if editors would create their own individual accounts so vandals and spammers could be identified and seperated much easily. For those who are making more positive contributions via this IP address, it would benefit you to get your own accounts anyway, as you get improved editing features, your own webspace amoungst other things etc.
I suspect that the vandal(s) opperating from this IP address may lead to this account being blocked in the next 24/48 hours, as the rate and seriousness of the vandalism and spam is escalating and the warnings are seemingly ineffective. Another instance and example of the type of vandalism hailing from this address includes this inappropriate edit to the Royton article, and this offensive edit to the Oldham page, amoungst the many examples on the page below.
Like Aquillina, I would urge the more sensible editors from this address to create their own accounts as being a major employer/shared address does not exempt you from the rules or the impending ban from editing. I hope this helps. Thanks for your time, Jhamez84 19:38, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Hello, I see that you keep editing the Chadderton page of Wiki, changing "Chadderton" from a town to a district. I am sorry to say but you are wrong and I have had to revert your article twice. Please use the talk page before making any more alterations. Thank you.

[edit] March 17, 2006

Hi. Thanks for your recent edits to The Shamen. I've reversed two of the changes for reasons I've explained in my edit summaries, but everything else has been allowed to stand. I'd like to ask that in future you summarise your edits so that other editors can see at a glance what you've done. You also ought to consider getting an account (if you don't have one already). Here's the standard welcome message for anonymous editors:

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 write articles, however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 62.25.109.194). Logging in does not require any personal details. There are many other benefits for logging in to Wikipedia. For now, if you are stuck, you can type {{helpme}} on this page and an experienced Wikipedian will be around to answer any questions you may have.

Please note these points:

  • Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
  • Please use a neutral point of view to edit the article; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do that.
  • Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted texts, advertisement messages, and texts that are not related to that article. Both adding such unreasonable information and editing articles maliciously are considered vandalism. A user who repeatedly vandalises articles will be blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, ask me on my Talk page – I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia.

[edit] Dolly the Sheep

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia, which you are more than welcome to do. --Mais oui! 11:39, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Your recent edits to U2 and Steel City derby were unsourced changes to statistical information. Could you not change these figures unless a source is provided? Similar edits without sources will be reverted as possible vandalism. -- Chuq 13:07, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. --Kbh3rdtalk 14:39, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] May 2006

Hi. I've just had to revert a number of your edits: it's the accepted style on Wikipedia to only link to an article once from a given article, and never to link recursively (i.e. put a link X within article X) - have a look at WP:CONTEXT and WP:MOS - it's very useful.

Thanks for your contributions, Aquilina 13:00, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Francis Crick

Please refrain from removing content from Wikipedia, as you did to Talk:Francis Crick. It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Badgerpatrol 15:53, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edit to Oldham

Your recent edit to Oldham 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] Warning against Commercial Links and Spam

Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. - Glen TC (Stollery) 09:20, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spam and Oldham related articles

As your edits are often inappropriate and erroneous, I am keeping a close eye on your edits. I recently found you had inserted a Spam link to the featured article of Transhumanism which can be found here. This goes against strict wikipedia rules and will be removed. Your edits can and will be traced and reverted so please do not make this kind of contribution again or I will present your profile to an administrator who may block you from editing indefinately.

With regards again to Oldham articles, please stop changing pages regarding the satelite towns of Oldham, e.g. Royton, from saying they are in (the correct) Metropolitan Borough of Oldham to just the town of Oldham. This is wrong due to many reasons including legal status, wikipedias conventions of place naming, and of course FACT! That Royton is in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham is NON-NEGOTIABLE - and you are not even justifying your contributions. Your edits are not appriopriate for Wikipedia in this instance. Consider this your LAST WARNING about this before I will present your profile to an administrator for vandalising these pages. You are however encouraged to make positive and encyclopedic contributions on wikipedia.

With regards to your commerical and non-sensical external links....

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

I trust this resolves the matter in a positive and conclusive way. Thanks for your future co-operation, Jhamez84 12:45, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Millwall F.C.. Bermondsey IS NOT Southwark. Please do not change this article again Lion King 11:22, 7 June 2006 (UTC)P.S. This confusion on your part is, that both are in the London Borough of Southwark, but Southwark is a place in it's own right.

Additionally, do not make personal attacks to other users, such as you did here. Your editting pattern is testing the patience of the wider editing community. I have reported you for your violations. Jhamez84 14:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to Paignton Page

You have recently vandalized a Wikipedia article, and you are now being asked to stop this type of behavior. You're welcome to continue editing Wikipedia, so long as these edits are constructive. Please see Wikipedia's Blocking policy and what constitutes vandalism; such actions are not tolerated on Wikipedia, and are not taken lightly.

We hope that you will become a legitimate editor. Again, you are welcome here at Wikipedia, but remember not to vandalize or you will soon be blocked from editing.

If you feel you have received this message in error, it may be because you are using a shared IP address. Nevertheless, repeated vandalism from this address may cause you to be included in any future sanctions such as temporary blocks or bans. To avoid confusion in the future, we invite you to create a user account of your own.

[edit] To the editor of George Galloway

You are right that some of the material in George Galloway needs better citation. But please also note the notice at the top of Talk:George Galloway about poorly sourced material that could be libellous. We have to take special care when posting negative material. See WP:BLP. Also, there was a clear anti-Galloway slant in the tone of your edits that was contrary to WP:NPOV. Also, the site from which you are editing is a multiple user site that has been blocked for vandalism. I am not stating that your edits were vandalism, but, if possible, it would be better for you if you registered as a user in your own right. Viewfinder 13:00, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please Use Edit Summaries

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Mr Stephen 10:12, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Natives of Greater Manchester

Please don't delete this category from categories of people from towns now in Greater Manchester. The whole point of including both this category and Category:Natives of Lancashire/Category:Natives of Cheshire is to avoid edit warring, to hopefully satisfy both supporters of the new counties and the old counties (I categorised these and I happen to be the latter), and to account for the fact that people born before 1974 weren't born in Greater Manchester and those born after 1974 weren't technically born in Lancashire or Cheshire. Any change will inevitably provoke an edit war and stupid accusations from those who would like to believe that Manchester has never been in Lancashire of being a "County Watch Vandal" as above.

Thank you for your edits to Milnrow, Middleton, Greater Manchester, Littleborough, Heywood, Greater Manchester, Heywood, Greater Manchester, Little Lever, Farnworth, Radcliffe, Greater Manchester, Whitefield, Greater Manchester, and Prestwich.

I've noticed you have kindly added population figures to these articles - however, the figures are very precise and I was wondering if you could either provide the source in the articles themselve, or contact myself (by clicking here) with the source and I'll add it to the articles manually. It is normal practice to provide the source and year (whether it be census returns or govement websites etc), and would not want your contributions to be removed.

Thanks for the contributions, hope you can get in touch. Jhamez84 15:33, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
