Request reason:

Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 45.83.242.201. As far as I can see from reviewing wikipedia policies, it is not disallowed to run a web server, ssh server, or ftp server from your home machine. If you go to the webserver in question, you will see it is a staging server for my homepage http://www.cwi.nl/~steven that I use to check that things look all right before I upload them to my real home page. Further reading of that page will show that I was the first user of the open internet in Europe, and amongst other things, HTML activity lead at the W3C for around ten years, which I think also gives me the right to run a webserver from my home machine. I have run a webserver from my home machine for the entire time that I have used and edited Wikipedia. I do not understand why having a webserver is reason to block me from editing Wikipedia pages. Pemboid (talk) 10:56, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

Accept reason:

I have gone ahead and unblocked that range per below. SQL^{Query Me!} 05:34, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

@Yamla and ST47: I would recommend unblocking this IP range (45.83.242.0/24). It was probably owned by Greybeard Technologies when it was blocked in 2019. Somewhere around mid-2021, it appears to have been transferred to Freedom Internet, per the whois. I would like to unblock this range at some point within the next 48-72 hours, unless someone has a good reason that I shouldn't.

I run SSH / (S)FTP / OVPN / HTTP(S), and probably a dozen other services on my home, residential cable connection - but I'll admit that I'm not a "normal" usecase by any stretch of the imagination.

Until then, Pemboid, I'm providing you IP Block Exemption (this is a user right that will allow you to bypass rangeblocks like this one) for the next 7 days so you may continue to edit. If I forget (spoiler: There's a good chance I might), please don't hesitate ping me using {{ping|SQL}} here, leave a reminder on my talkpage, or email me using Special:Emailuser/SQL. SQL^{Query Me!} 06:30, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

I have no objection. Thanks for clarifying, Pemboid and ST47. --Yamla (talk) 11:19, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Good to have you contributing. I want to put the following by your Erdős-Bacon calculation: A link to [1], "Includes voice-only and television roles," and "includes newsletter article." If the ABC is peer reviewed, let me know and I'll omit the last note. Calbaer 17:55, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Griffin (Band)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Griffin (Band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. ♦ Tentinator ♦ 19:11, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Austin Henderson, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ACM. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Lambert Meertens into Affix grammar. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:22, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Please post talk page messages to the bottom of the page

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Your recent talk page comments on Talk:SIGCHI were not added to the bottom of the page. New discussion page messages and topics should always be added to the bottom. Your message may have been moved. In the future you can use the "New section" link in the top right. For more details see the talk page guidelines. Thank you. Graham87 (talk) 13:30, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

I've gone through all your talk page posts and fixed them up accordingly. I noticed that you top-posted at Talk:A Ceremony of Carols and it came to my attention particularly because the post was made relatively recently. Graham87 (talk) 13:30, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
