Nice to see you back. – Chacor 05:06, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Welcome back! Hope you're still here to see this. You don't seem to have made any edits since the 14th - Mike | Talk 20:14, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Me too - good to see the familiar name popup in the block log. --pgk 22:03, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Just saw you reverting something on my watch list--great to see you again! Mackensen (talk) 00:04, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Montclair High School temporary ban lift

Hello, I am Balzac Te'baghar, the computer teacher at MoHigh. I want to teach my students how to effectively spread their citing knowledge by giving an assignment of pre-selected wiki pages where they must enhance it by adding at least 3 details and 2 sources. I will NOT tolerate ANY vandalism. I ask that you lift the edit ban of 163.150.137.68 (talkcontribsdeleted contribsWHOISRDNStraceRBLshttpblock userblock log) from Thursday, September 6 until Friday, September 14. Thank you - Balzac Te'baghar.

[edit] User:38.116.200.10

You were the last to block 38.116.200.10 (talkcontribsdeleted contribsWHOISRDNStraceRBLshttpblock userblock log), not for the first time, obviously. I recall setting the block parameters to only block out IP edits indefinitely, which shouldn't have caused an autoblock of Rayquaza2233 (talk · contribs) (which caused the removal of my original indefinite block and leads us to your "September 2007" block). Without giving too much away, I know about that specific IP address, and I feel that it should be permanently blocked for an indefinite amount of time. I can almost guarantee that not one week after your block expires, it will be blocked again. I applaud the efforts to get the whole school vandalism issue fixed , but nothing will ever be achieved. If anything, we're doing them a favour keeping their IP blocked for good. In the mean time, September 2007 is more than sufficient. --Jay(Reply) 02:37, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Now that I look into it even more, Netsnipe (talk contribs blocks protects deletions moves rights)(who is unfortunately on break at this time) made an error in unblocking the IP, given that Rayquaza2233 (talk · contribs) is a vandal. This is starting to look fishy. --Jay(Reply) 02:40, 9 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] A request for assistance

Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. Bzuk 05:02 3 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Ip: 216.20.9.22 that you blocked

[edit] Please advise, Ronald Ryan

Hi, I was hoping to get your advice.

I added to the Ronald Ryan article. Ryan was the last man hanged in Australia (in 1967). What I added was evidence of his guilt. They were confessions he is described as having made in public. One was recorded by his priest (who was not his confessor). I gave my sources for the additions. The primary sources are trial transcripts and interviews with witnesses. They are listed in a secondary source. I gave both.

That whole section has been removed by a user who either has no account or did not log in (124.191.180.110) who simply removed it all on this basis:

“deleted "alleged" confessions made by one author of many books, which cannot be proven. Ryan and Ryan's defense attorneys absolutely dispute this "35-year-later" allegation of guilt”

See here

I could

  • Revert (and possibly start an edit war)
  • Discuss it on the talk page. However, I don't relish the thought of attempting to discuss something with a user who won't open an account and who has made half a dozen edits, all on the same general topic.
  • something else.

What do you advise? Avalon 01:40, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] IP Number Block Request

Hi, Hall Monitor, and congratulations on your contributions to Wikipedia. I was wondering if you could do something to stop 207.63.215.24 from making edits on Wikipedia. This unregistered user has not only offended people with his immoral edits, but he has also defaced Wikipedia's reputation as a trustworthy online information portal. I came to you because I know how much you care about making Wikipedia as informative as possible. I am prepared to work in as many ways as possible to keep these creeps off of this "information powerhouse." If you click on the highlighted IP address located earlier in the article, a page will load that lists all of the edits this user has made, most of which are demeaning and derogatory. Thank you in advance, and don't hesitate to leave me a message on my "discussion" page. --HG707 23:25, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unblock 198.86.93.254

Back in 2005 you blocked 198.86.93.254 at the request of the school the IP belongs to. I got a request from that school to unblock it that appears legit. I can't tell if you are still active, so I am leaving this note, but I will unblock tomorrow if I don't hear from you otherwise. --agr (talk) 21:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
