Have you considered making an account?

You should make an account, probably; it is harder to follow extended discussions with an IP address, and while they're not supposed to people do tend to give a bit less weight to what an editor without an account says. Additionally, there are some parts of the site you cannot edit without an established account. --Aquillion (talk) 09:50, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have considered it, but (A) I only infrequently edit wikipedia, and (B) an interaction with one such editor previously has made me out of stubborn protest desire to continue to edit Wikipedia from an IP address instead! I appreciate the message however, and it's nice to know that Wikipedia alerts me even as an IP user when I get a message on my talk page. 78.105.218.134 (talk) 10:02, 17 August 2021 (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.
