User talk:24.72.62.90

May 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm 3PPYB6. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Canada goose, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 19:50, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a public Wi-Fi, I would recommend you guys block this IP from editing further. -sincerely, someone who edits Wikipedia from my private home Wi-Fi. 24.72.62.90 (talk) 07:47, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm assuming you're not the user in question, so sorry for the trouble the other user caused. We don't block users in a preemptive measure. We only block if there is obvious disruption at that moment that clearly is damaging Wikipedia, and more damage would occur if allowed to continue. Dormant IPs like this one who are not vandalizing Wikipedia right now usually aren't blocked until the vandalism actually occurs (See the blocking policy for more info).

Also, to help you with pinging: Next time, when you ping someone, simply link to their userpage. You can do this by typing a standard wikilink like [[User:(user in question)|]] or use a template, like {{u|(user in question)}}. Thanks, and again, sorry for the trouble. — 3PPYB6 — TALK — CONTRIBS — 12:15, 16 June 2022 (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.
