Hello

I know I'm being a nosey mare but I'm so curious about why you don't have an account? Obviously it's not a requirement but I'm sure I've seen you 'knocking around' on another 57 ip. The reason I'm asking is you are obviously experienced, you have a lot of Wikipedia policy knowledge and most of all you are helpful, which is so nice to see.

As I said, I'm just a nosey parker but I wanted to also say thank you for all your contributions. IP's get a bad rap sometimes, and not enough thanks. Knitsey (talk) 21:31, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Knitsey, I got asked that question several times when I was 199.208.172.35 - you can still look through the answers at User talk:199.208.172.35 if you'd like (they're in the extended content collapsed box, along with all the other messages from one of my sordid pasts 😉). Things many change quite a bit next year when IP masking happens. We'll see. 57.140.16.45 (talk) 21:36, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the thanks, @Knitsey! Much better than being randomly reverted.
