==Archiving==
Sorry about my message before, I fear it was rather irrelevant as I didn't realise that you hadn't used the {helpme} (but in fact the page was reverted).

It's not really vandalism to blank a talk page, but ideally an archive will be kept. Because some vandals blank their talk page to deceive about the warnings they have received, there is a widespread misunderstanding that blanking a talk page is not allowed. I think the solution in place now, with a link to an archive, is ok.--] 07:13, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Shared dynamic IP addressWelcome!

Interested in becoming a regular contributor to Misplaced Pages? Create an account!

Your IP address, 85.70.5.66, is part of a pool of dynamically allocated addresses and is registered to Czech Telecom a.s. - IOL. It may be shared by multiple users, so you might receive messages on this page that were not intended for you.

To have your own user pages, keep track of articles you've edited in a watchlist, and have access to a few other special features, please consider registering an account! It's fast and free. (Note: Sometimes, due to vandalism, you may be temporarily unable to register).

Applying an indefinite block to this IP is not appropriate, unless it is a soft block, because the IP address will later be reallocated to a different, unrelated, and unsuspecting user, thereby impairing access to Misplaced Pages in an inappropriate fashion. Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking.

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.

In the event of vandalism from this IP address, abuse reports can be sent to its network administrator for investigation.
Review contributions carefully if blocking this IP address or reverting its contributions. If a block is needed, administrators should consider a soft block using Template:Anonblock.
Network administrators, to monitor this IP address for vandalism, can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

The comments placed on this page may concern various anonymous editors and have been archived.
