Your host, c-68-82-145-210.hsd1.pa.comcast.net (68.82.145.210), is part of a pool of dynamically allocated addresses and is registered to Comcast Cable Communications LLC - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 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.

Hello 68.82.145.210!

Thank you for your contributions to this free encyclopedia. You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but you may wish to create an account.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your username and the date.

March 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm BilCat. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, USS Lexington (CV-2), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. BilCat (talk) 04:25, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Added note[edit]

Further to above notice, it appears almost all of your edits over the past two years have been to US Navy ship articles, where you have changed the original namesake of the ship to that of a Confederate Navy ship from the Civil War. These changes were unsourced and have been reverted. Before you change any more article content, know that it must be supported by a reliable source, or your edit will be undone. Please take the time to learn some of the polices & guidelines here before you edit any more pages. A read through the 'welcome' template message I've placed at the top of this page would be a good start. Also consider creating an account, as suggested in that message as well. Thank you - wolf 23:48, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

February 2024[edit]

Hello, I'm Adakiko. An edit you recently made to Jimmy Durante seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 00:20, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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.
