School IP address Welcome to Wikipedia, school user! Please note the following:

This IP address, 165.138.79.11, is registered to Indiana Department of Education - Room 229 - State House, Indianapolis, IN 46204, and may be shared by many different people. If this school uses proxy servers, many people at different computers, or even at different schools in an area, can connect to the Internet through this same IP address. Because of this, a message meant for one person may be read by another, often someone who has not done anything wrong, and a block of this IP address will mean that everyone using this address will not be able to change Wikipedia.

If you are making changes from this address and are getting messages that are not for you, you can avoid this by creating your own account. If you cannot do this, it most likely means that doing so has been stopped so that other users cannot make any bad changes. You will then have to make an account at home and log in with it here.


Please think before blocking this IP. If a block is needed, admins should consider a soft block.

Note: If this address is used for vandalism over and over again, making changes without an account may be disabled for up to 1 year at a time, and abuse reports may be sent to the people who run the school in cases of long-term disruption by people with accounts.
School staff, to monitor this IP address for disruptive changes, can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

October 2009[change source]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make useful changes to Wikipedia. However, at least one of your changes, such as the one you made to "Vikings", did not appear to be useful and has been automatically reverted by GoblinBot4. If you want to try out changing Wikipedia to learn more about how it works, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Bad warning? Please report it here then remove this warning. --GoblinBot4 (talk) 15:06, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from changing Wikipedia for 31 hrs for For homophobic personal attacks.

Once the block has ended you can make helpful changes. Please read Wikipedia's blocking policy and remember that adding spam, making changes that do not have a neutral point of view, making personal attacks on others, not respecting other people's privacy, and vandalizing pages are not allowed. If you do any of these things, you will be blocked again.

If you think this block is unfair, you can ask to be unblocked by adding {{Unblock|your reason here}} below. If you cannot do this or the reason is private please send an e-mail to simple-admins-l@lists.wikimedia.org and an administrator will look at your reason and reply. You may want to consider reading our guide to unblock requests before requesting to be unblocked. fr33kman talk 15:12, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, think about creating an account for yourself so you will not get messages that are meant for other people.
