Vandal(s)?

I know this IP is shared by a huge number of users, but judging from the contributions , they're all vandals. Ban 'em, I say.

I disagree. 217.33.74.20 07:46, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

Unfair

As a pupil at one of those schools I disagree, wiki is useful for numerous subjects and a frequent for homework help. I suggest you do not ban education use of wiki as it is unfair, to those who do not vandalise. Just clearly moniter the ip but do not consider banning.

Perhaps the school should better monitor usage by its pupils? I just had to delete a stupid and obscene change to an article about a puppet. - DavidWBrooks 14:38, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Some are, but we're talking about more than 20,000 students on this one IP, plus, as said below, libraries. violet/riga (t) 08:23, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Just thought I'd mention that I'm in Kidderminster Public Library, not in a school. It would be ludicrous to block users of a library from editing Misplaced Pages! (User:Loganberry, not currently signed in.)

Please stop
