My school was blocked from editing Wikipedia. I found this out this morning while on the site. Unfortunately, when the IP was blocked, I discovered I couldn't edit while I was at my school, even when logged in. Is this normal Wikipedia policy?crazyviolinist 21:38, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot the school's IP: 204.169.40.254. Yes, I know that whoever is doing these edits are doing this in the worst way possible, and I don't condone it.crazyviolinist 21:39, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Crazyviolinist. I'm not an expert on this, but I think that this is fairly normal. You can request unblocking by following these directions. Sorry I can't be of more help. —P^urple ^RA^IN 21:45, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Autoblock of 204.169.40.254 lifted or expired.

Ohhh block? thats gotta suck, my ISP is banned from making account on wiki for some reason and despite numerous emails to wiki nothing ever gets done about it, anyways, glad you're back on patrol bud, just wanted to know I left a comment in the starforce discussion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:StarForce#Some_changes_for_better_fitness Credits to you for patrolling this one, its always been open to vandalism from several people and its nice to see someone took over from me :P 85.178.197.70 18:47, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well there are a number of situations in which use of the download source could be legal - for example countries which allow purchasers of software to keep a backup copy (provided they don't break any DRM). It is better to simply be descriptive (it is unauthorised - fact, but whether or not it is illegal depends on the individual downloader and his/her local laws). In the same way we use 'suicide bomber' or 'kidnapper' instead of 'terrorist' because it is better to simply describe the subject to the reader, rather than attempting to make judgements of our own.
