To have your own [[Wikipedia:User pages|user pages]], keep track of articles you've edited in a [[Help:Watchlist|watchlist]], and have access to [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|a few other special features]], please consider [[Special:CreateAccount|registering an account]]! It's fast and free. (Note: Sometimes, due to [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalism]], you may be [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?#Blocked?|temporarily unable to register]]).<br />

----<br />
Applying an indefinite block to this IP is not appropriate, unless it is a [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy#Setting_block_options|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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
