Corvallis edit

You wrote: "I was somewhat surprised to find a message about a reverted edit left for me. I then realized that I wasn't logged in, so I was using an IP address (207.207.127.252). Your message got left on the user page of an IP address. In the future, please be careful about who you're messaging"

I'm not quite sure what you expect me to be "more careful" about. An edit was made under an IP address and I left a message to that IP address. All people logged in on that IP address will see the message, I can't control if you also saw the warning because you weren't logged in. That's nothing unusual, ignore it if it doesn't apply to you.

Please read Wikipedia:Vandalism. Warning IP addresses is not only commonplace, I'd say that 90% of all warnings given out goes to IP addresses. VegaDark 00:10, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Stop Hand

THE WIKIPEDA IRC SPAM PROJECT IS RECRUITING NOW

WHY ME
Your recent request to use VandalProof software has been refused as you have too few edits to the English Wikipedia.
We need editors to look through recently edited pages and decide whether the links are spam or not.
If the link qualifies as spam, you will need to revert the page to remove the link and warn the 'spammer'.
This will increase your edit count and allow the VandalProof team to approve you in future !
In fact, the Wikipedia IRC Spam Project shares many VandalProof administrators and users.
HOW TO JOIN

1. Install an IRC client.
(ChatZilla, IceChat and X-Chat are free. X-Chat works on all platforms) - a full list is available here.
2. Visit irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-spam
This channel lists, in real time, all external links added to Wikipedia.
Around 50% of the links listed are suspicious and need to be checked.
We flag especially suspicious links in RED.
3. Begin Checking Links
Click on any diff (the Wikipedia URL) listed in the IRC channel to begin checking and reverting as necessary.
If you revert, remember to place a spam warning {{subst:spam1}} → {{subst:spam4}}
We need to be able to block persistent spammers just as we do persistent vandals.
Remember - If you need help or admin intervention visit irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-spam-t

POLICY Before you begin, please read WP:EL and WP:SPAM. These polices are the basis of spam fighting.

Best Wishes - The Wikipedia IRC Spam Project Team

UPS Userbox

Might I suggest changing it to "the University of Puget Sound"? It seems to flow better that way. --Liface 06:46, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
