School IP address Attention:

This IP address, 208.20.123.21, is registered to Charles H. McCann Technical High School and may be shared by multiple users of an educational institution. If the institution uses 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. Similarly an innocent user may be blocked for another user's vandalism. 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 read our advice on this situation.


Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking - if a block is needed, administrators should consider a soft block with the template {{schoolblock|optional comment}} as the block reason.

Note: In the event of persistent vandalism from this IP address, anonymous editing may be disabled for up to 1 year at a time. Abuse reports may also be forwarded to your school administration for investigation.

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits, such as those you made to Cowboy Bebop, are considered vandalism and are immediately reverted. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. – Riana 14:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Exactly how many times did you warn this person? If I were you I would up the ante and block edits from occuring for more than 48hours. It wouldn't affect me seeing as I use another account and I do not typically use this network but seriously the guy doing this is annoying...he even edited my User page at one point now that was the most annoying thing he did. PS. this is a shared network more than 300 people use it only 10 edit excluding me because I typically use an account —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.20.123.21 (talkcontribs) 14:39, 12 April 2007.

You have been blocked from editing Wikipedia for a period of 60 hours as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our neutral point of view policy will not be tolerated. – Riana 14:46, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Note to administrators of wikipedia.org the person in question has been banned from using any and all PC, Laptop or similar devices on this network, though we still do suggest keep the block. Though we are sorry for this we can not be sure that this type of incident will not occur again. If you need to you may (it is suggested) permanently block all edits from this IP. Sincerely IP 208.20.123.21

PS. We here deeply apologize for the behavior our student has exhibited. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.20.123.21 (talkcontribs) 09:49, April 13, 2007

[edit] Request Administrator Attention

We here at McCann Technical High School would like to request a schoolblock to stop the continuous vandalism from our IP address. We were recently informed of the recent vandalism by one rgoodermote (he told us about it but did not do it) who is an active member of your website and also a student at our school this morning. Though we do understand that the recent case was not as sever as the last we still do not wish to have an ongoing bad rep with Wikipedia.org and the users of Wikipedia.org. If possible we would like to control the block so in time when we feel it safe to lift we could lift it.

From the Administration of Charles H. McCann Technical High School, North Adams Massachusetts

P.S. Sorry for the edits to our message, haven't really done this before. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.20.123.21 (talkcontribs) 09:03, May 30, 2007

One question..why does it count as vandalism if it is our own talk page? By the way I am a student —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.20.123.21 (talkcontribs) 10:32, June 1, 2007
