Template:SharedIP

Attention:

This IP address, (IP address appears here), is registered to {{{1}}}, and may be shared by multiple users. In the case of organizations using proxy servers, this IP address may in fact represent many users at many physical computers. The IP may be reassigned to a different person when the current user disconnects. One IP may be used across many public terminals/physical computers/library computers at any one time.

For this reason, a message intended for one person may be received by another and a block shared by many. If you are editing from this address and are frustrated by irrelevant messages, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself. In some cases, you may temporarily be unable to create an account due to efforts to fight vandalism, in which case, please see here.

Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking - if a block is needed, administrators should consider using a soft block with the template {{anonblock|optional comment}} as the block reason.
