Attention:

This IP address, 198.181.11.7, is registered to Pacific Life Insurance Company, and may be shared by multiple users. If the organization uses proxy servers or firewalls, 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 may be 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; if so, 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. 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.

Note: In the event of vandalism from this address, abuse reports may be sent to your network administrator for further investigation.
IT staff who want to monitor vandalism from this IP address can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

[edit] Johnson

The three-revert rule prohibits editors from making more than three reverts to an article in any 24-hour period. And even that many reverts is considered undesirable. You have already reverted the article four time in the last two hours. Please stop. If you continue, you can be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Guettarda (talk) 20:02, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sockpuppetry?

It appears that you may be using multiple accounts to avoid the three-revert rule (WP:3RR) at Phillip E. Johnson, but I wanted to ask you if there is another explanation. You may have edited without logging in, and you may have switched to another computer at your workplace and forgotten to log in there. Or you may be unaware of WP:3RR or WP:SSP, in which case I encourage you to read these policies. Please let me know if you have not edited under the following:
