Attention:

This host, c-71-193-141-63.hsd1.or.comcast.net, is registered to Comcast in Oregon, and may be shared by multiple users. In the case of organizations using proxy servers, 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 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, 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.

Note: In the event of severe vandalism from this address, abuse reports may be forwarded to your network administrator for further investigation.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed your recent edit to List of billionaires (2006) and wanted to say hi. Here are some recommended guidelines to help you get involved. Please feel free to contact me if you need help with anything. By the way, 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.) Best of luck and happy editing! Fuhghettaboutit 23:07, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Censoring

Please stop. Wikipedia is not censored. Any further changes which have the effect of censoring an article, such as you did to Pearl necklace (sexuality) will be regarded as vandalism. If you continue in this manner, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 01:00, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
