Your host, c-73-16-107-72.hsd1.nh.comcast.net (73.16.107.72), is part of a pool of dynamically allocated addresses and is registered to Comcast Cable, 30 Burgundy Dr, Nashua, NH 03062, USA. 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 Wikipedia 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.

This IP address has been repeatedly blocked from editing Wikipedia in response to abuse of editing privileges.
Further abuse from this IP address may result in an extended block.

Editing by unregistered users from your shared IP address or address range may be currently disabled due to abuse. However, you are still able to edit if you sign in with an account. If you are currently blocked from creating an account, and cannot create one elsewhere in the foreseeable future, you may follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Request an account to request that volunteers create your username for you. Please use an email address issued to you by your ISP, school or organization so that we may verify that you are a legitimate user on this network. Please reference this block in the comment section of the form.

Please check on this list that the username you choose has not already been taken. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Please state your reasons for removing the See Also link from the Teaching grandmother to suck eggs article on the talk page Talk:Teaching grandmother to suck eggs. Refusal to engage in discussion will lead to your reversion and I will assume your edits to be vandalism. Best wishes Polyamorph (talk) 08:07, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Teaching grandmother to suck eggs, you may be blocked from editing. Polyamorph (talk) 10:16, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do not use multiple IP addresses to vandalize Wikipedia, like you did at Vladimir the Great. Such attempts to avoid detection or circumvent the blocking policy will not succeed. You are welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia but your recent edits have been reverted or removed. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Iryna Harpy (talk) 06:53, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Ukrainian People's Republic, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines.

On the English version of Wikipedia, please use the spelling of Keiv instead of Kyiv. Mr X ^☎️ 17:35, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Please don't be snide about typos. You know precisely what you're being pulled up about. The WP:COMMONNAME in the English language is 'Kiev', full stop. You can rail against it until you're blue in the face, but it doesn't change that fact. You're edit summaries and persistent disruptive editing will get you blocked. If you're WP:HERE to build an encyclopaedic resource, then do so. So far, however, you behaviour indicates that you're more interested in being bombastic than collaborative. --20:07, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

Learn to spell, instead; it's "your" and "Kyiv", end of story. You're evidently the last person on the site who should be commenting about spelling when your English skills are lesser than that of a 3rd grader. "Kyiv" is the actual name when translated to English, "Kiev" is an imposed Russification, and no amount of denial will change this.

I aim to make an accurate Wikipedia, while you clearly try to do the opposite, since you obviously don't know what collaborative behavior is. If this is really such an issue, then the Wikipedia staff wouldn't have brought over a mongoloid like yourself to represent them.

Er, my English skills?! "You're" is the contracted version of "you are": i.e., the sentence reads as, "If you are HERE to build an encyclopaedic resource, then do so." Note, also that personal attacks are not tolerated... and that WP:COMPETENCE is required of contributors. You're failing drastically on both fronts. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 05:31, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Way to completely miss the typo to which I was referring. The sentence isn't supposed to read "You are edit summaries" any more than "You are back-talk". Like I said - if this is such an issue, then Wikipedia staff wouldn't represent itself with a mongoloid like you.

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on others again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people.
Neither this nor this are acceptable. You have been blocked temporarily before for your abusive attitude towards other editors. If you continue in this vein, the block will be far more severe. Iryna Harpy (talk) 05:38, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/73.16.107.72, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
