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. Alternatively, you can list the IP at Wikipedia:WikiProject on XFFs.

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] FINAL WARNING

Please do not remove content from Wikipedia
You have recently removed content from Wikipedia without reason, after having already been warned about such behaviour. This is now your final warning, and any further vandalism will result in you being blocked from editing Wikipedia.

[edit] April 2008

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Wikipedia. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

[edit] Rebuttal to false accusations of vandalism

The two warnings above are completely unwarranted. See the edit I made to ! (disambiguation). Look at the pages whose links I added, and you will see that my edit was absolutely not vandalism. Heliac gave me a Draconian warning (Template:uw-delete4im - my only warning) not to "delete or blank page contents or templates". Check my edit to confirm that I did not delete anything.

I attempted to explain this on Heliac's talk page, but Heliac reverted my comment, claiming it was vandalism.

Then I added a note to my own talk page explaining the situation. Heliac reverted my explanation from my own talk page, again identifying my edit as vandalism.

Next, Heliac added the second warning, this time saying that my "recent edit removed content from Wikipedia." I don't know if this warning was intended to refer to my talk page edits or if it was meant as a slight softening of the original harsh warning. In any case, Heliac is the only one who removed any content. I did not remove anything from Wikipedia. I have also never vandalized anything.

To better judge for yourself, see Heliac's contributions and talk. Be sure to check the talk history since Heliac reverts warnings, clarifications, and complaints. Also see Heliac's log entries which show that Heliac was blocked for "Disruptive editing: Random reverting, misuse of various processes, ignoring warnings." and the discussion in which Heliac's request for rollback privilege was denied. Heliac later received the rollback privilege, but it was removed within less than a week due to gross misuse. See the Administrators' noticeboard discussion of Heliac's abuse which resulted in revocation of the privilege.

The effect of all of this? It's made me extremely reluctant to do any editing, for fear of being blocked for innocent acts. It seems to me that this is not what Wikipedia is supposed to be about.

Please note -- this IP belongs to a public library, and my comments apply to the only edit which I personally made with this IP on 25 April 2008 and the response to it. Any other edits made by this IP were done by other library patrons.

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Purple Heart. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references.
