This host, cpe-68-174-13-231.nyc.res.rr.com, is registered to Road Runner, 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.

[edit] Late welcome

Welcome

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Here are some other hints and tips:

  • I would recommend that you get a username. You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
  • When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.

If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my Talk page, or type {{helpme}} on this talk page and a user will help you as soon as possible. I will answer your questions as far as I can. Again, welcome, and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. DenizTC 15:15, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi, please see Help:Edit summary. DenizTC 15:15, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Also you should not remove tags, and referenced material., just because they don't match your POV. DenizTC 15:18, 28 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Budd Schulberg

Please do not include gossip items in Wikipedia - that isn't what an encyclopedia is for. It's not news that Schulberg appeared at the Tribeca Film Festival - it's an appearance. You can surely see how cluttered the site would be if we started including appearances for every celebrity on their pages. Additionally, the "news" is only about three sentences long. This is not what external links are there for. Thanks. --David Shankbone 13:50, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] June 2007

I suspect that User:Johnyajohn, this IP address, and other NYC Road Runner IPs are all the same person (or possibly meatpuppets). I've given URLs at the top of the page as evidence; also compare edit summaries when removing maintenance tags ([7], [8]). -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:59, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
