 Interested in becoming a regular contributor to Wikipedia? Create an account! Your through which multiple users may connect to the Internet via proxy, so you may 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. 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. If you are autoblocked repeatedly, contact your Internet service provider or network administrator and request it contact Wikimedia's XFF project about enabling X-Forwarded-For HTTP headers on its proxy servers so that blocks will affect only the intended user. In response to vandalism from this IP address, abuse reports may be sent to its network administrator for investigation.

- This talk page is for communicating with anonymous contributors from Qatar only. For information on press coverage, see User:82.148.97.69/press.
This IP address is registered to Qtel. It is the IP address for many people in Qatar, if not the entire country. As such, it should only be blocked for short periods of time. To avoid these short blocks and from being alerted to changes to this talk page, contributors from Qatar may register for an account. This only requires the creation of a username and a password. No personal information has to be given, not even an email address.
If a person using a registered account for vandalism is blocked, a software feature may cause the IP address to be temporarily blocked. This is called an autoblock. The IP addresses of registered editors are not visible for privacy reasons, so administrators have no idea when this will happen to a particular IP address, such as this one. To have this IP unblocked because of an autoblock, click on the "new section" tab at the top of the article and put {{Unblock-auto|This IP address, which is shared by most or all of the country of Qatar, has been autoblocked.}} in the large text box. Put "unblock" or something similar in the subject/headline field. The text to the right of the "|" can be changed to your liking. Click the "Save page" button after you are finished. It may take a little while for your request to be noticed and acted upon.
There is no way to permanently damage Wikipedia, because it is always possible to revert to an unmolested version of a page. Click on the "history" tab at the top of this page for an example. Each line that you see is a past version of this page. The page can be changed back to one of those versions in a few seconds by any user. Admins can revert all changes that a user or IP address has made to an article with a single click, which makes even vandalism spread across numerous pages easy to fix. In addition, copies of Wikipedia are made regularly and stored offline. A registered account will be permanently blocked if it appears that it has been created for vandalism, and an IP address will be temporarily blocked for vandalism, if necessary, even if it has many users. Therefore, please consider the effect on other people in Qatar before vandalizing Wikipedia.History of this page

Perhaps a little out of date
[edit]As discussed in this SuperUser Q&A, this page does seem to be somewhat out of date. Mark Hurd (talk) 04:10, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
