School IP address Welcome to Wikipedia, school user! Please note the following:

This IP address, 193.60.218.253, is registered to Itchen College, Bitterne, Southampton, UK, and may be shared by many different people. If this school uses proxy servers, many people at different computers, or even at different schools in an area, can connect to the Internet through this same IP address. Because of this, a message meant for one person may be read by another, often someone who has not done anything wrong, and a block of this IP address will mean that everyone using this address will not be able to change Wikipedia.

If you are making changes from this address and are getting messages that are not for you, you can avoid this by creating your own account. If you cannot do this, it most likely means that doing so has been stopped so that other users cannot make any bad changes. You will then have to make an account at home and log in with it here.


Please think before blocking this IP. If a block is needed, admins should consider a soft block.

Note: If this address is used for vandalism over and over again, making changes without an account may be disabled for up to 1 year at a time, and abuse reports may be sent to the people who run the school in cases of long-term disruption by people with accounts.
School staff, to monitor this IP address for disruptive changes, can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia by creating the page Anchorage (song) on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page is now gone. Please use the sandbox if you want to do any more tests, and see the welcome page if you want to learn about helping Simple English Wikipedia. Fairfield Deleted? 12:33, 3 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

May 2019 change

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Your changes to the page Second Life worked, but because it had things in it which did not help improve the page, it was reverted or removed. If you would like to do more tests on Wikipedia, please use the sandbox. You may also want to read the welcome page to learn about helping the Simple English Wikipedia. Thank you.

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the change, consider creating an account so you can avoid notices that are not for you.

February 2022 change

  Welcome to Wikipedia. You might not have done it on purpose, but your recent change removed helpful information from Wikipedia. We ask that you do not remove things from pages, as you did to "Maslow's hierarchy of needs", without giving a good reason in the change summary. If it was a mistake, do not worry. The part of the article you removed has been put back. If you want to try things out, please use the sandbox. If you would like to learn how to help Wikipedia, please see the welcome page. Thank you.

 Your recent changes, like those to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, are vandalism and are not acceptable on any Wikipedia. Please stop. If you continue to vandalize, you will be blocked from changing pages on Wikipedia. Griff (talk) 15:14, 2 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
