Welcome to Wikipedia, ISP user! Please note the following:

This IP address, 194.83.172.71, belongs to Dumfries and Galloway Council, an internet service provider through which many people may connect to the Internet using a proxy. This IP address may be given to another person when the current user logs off.

For this reason, a message that was meant to be sent to one person may be seen by another. If you are changing Wikipedia using this address and are tired of unrelated messages, you can avoid them by making an account for yourself. Sometimes, you may not be allowed to make an account for a short time because of attempts to prevent disruptive changes. In that case, please see this page.

If you are automatically blocked repeatedly, you should contact the company that operates your Internet connection or your corporation's technical division and ask them to talk to Wikimedia's XFF project about turning on X-Forwarded-For HTTP headers on their proxy servers so that Wikipedia blocks will affect only the person meant to be stopped.


Please do not block this IP or undo its changes without checking - if a block is needed, admins should consider using a block with automatic blocking disabled with the code {{anonblock|optional comment}} as the reason.

Note: If disruptive changes are made from this address, abuse reports may be sent to your ISP.
Tech staff who want to patrol disruptive changes made using this IP address can subscribe to a web feed of this page using either RSS or Atom.

Your newest changes are vandalism and this is not acceptable on any Wikipedia. Please stop. If you vandalise more pages, you may be blocked so you cannot change Wikipedia. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Cometstyles 10:01, 25 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

You have been stopped from making changes to wikipedia because of your bad changes. You can start making changes in a useful way as soon as the block ends. But you may be blocked again if you keep making changes that harm wikipedia.

You have been blocked from changing Wikipedia for 3 months for repeated offensive vandalism.

Once the block has ended you can make helpful changes. Please read Wikipedia's blocking policy and remember that adding spam, making changes that do not have a neutral point of view, making personal attacks on others, not respecting other people's privacy, and vandalizing pages are not allowed. If you do any of these things, you will be blocked again.

If you think this block is unfair, you can ask to be unblocked by adding {{Unblock|your reason here}} below. If you cannot do this or the reason is private please send an e-mail to simple-admins-l@lists.wikimedia.org and an administrator will look at your reason and reply. You may want to read our guide to unblock requests before asking to be unblocked. Peterdownunder (talk) 21:18, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
