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

This IP address, 209.232.149.23, is registered to Orange County Department of Education, 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.
Due to real-life situations involving the person who most often edits under this IP, it has been labeled as inactive.

November 2017 change

  Please do not make unhelpful changes to Wikipedia, like you did to Knights of the Round Table. The changes you made seem to be vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you want to try changing Wikipedia to learn more about how it works, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Auntof6 (talk) 19:26, 9 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

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.

Block tags change

Please do not add block tags to IP addresses that are blocked as you did here. If the tags are needed, the blocking sysop will add them. Often times, they are not tagged for a reason. Operator873 connect 17:27, 28 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Commenting on unblock requests change

Please don't comment on unblock requests like this, it is unhelpful. Thanks. --Ferien (talk) 20:04, 29 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
