User talk:216.220.208.123

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Attention:

This IP address, 216.220.208.123, is part of a pool of dynamically allocated addresses and is registered to the following organization Danger, Inc.. Applying an indefinite block to this IP is not recomended, unless it is a soft block, because the IP address will, in short order, be reallocated to a different, unrelated, and unsuspecting user, thereby impairing access to Wikipedia. Comments left on this page will generally be received by other users of this IP and appear to be irrelevant. Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking. In the event of ongoing and serious vandalism from this address, efforts can be made to contact Danger, Inc. to report abuse.

The best approach is to determine the CIDR IP numerical address range and make a higher-level decision to soft-block the entire range. http://www.arin.net/ (for approximately North America) and related sites can help to identify that range. Caution is advised when applying a range block as other Wikipedians, both registered and otherwise, may be affected.

If you are an unregistered user operating from this address, note that this need not necessarily be the IP address of your machine. If you are frustrated by irrelevant comments appearing here, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself.

Extreme 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.

Notice: This address is a dynamically allocated IP address provided temporary to a Danger Hiptop or T-Mobile Sidekick user. Comments left on this page will unlikely be seen by the intended user and are generally pointless.
