Just wanted to say well done on your edits to this article. It's a great serial and deserves a much better page. Some day I mean to get around to really improving the Dennis Potter content on Wikipedia. His article ought to be featured, and hopefully will be good enough to be some day. Keep up the good work, anyway! Angmering 20:02, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand why my Wikipedia editing access has been blocked ~ & I'm alarmed that any "abuse" of the system could be ascribed to me. My Wiki UN is: Kilrea. My UID is: 8553291

~Those co-ordinates should show that I've not edited much since last year (May, 07) ~ & most recently in April this year ~ both on just one site: That for Cheryl Campbell, a British actor.

My ISP is the University of California,Los Angeles, though my DSL connection is through the commercial vendor: Verizon.


I guess I'm just upset that a block would be imposed for reasons quite beyond my comprehension.

Good news[edit]

Hi, Kilrea. Your entire Internet service provider has been temporarily blocked due to persistent abuse by a single very disruptive user who's been abusing Verizon's SoCal DSL networks. Since you're an established editor, I've granted your account an exemption from IP blocking; this will allow you to edit through full blocks without affecting you when you're logged in. Please read Wikipedia:IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

I hope that you'll put this inconvenience behind you and continue to contribute to Wikipedia. :) east.718 at 07:04, June 17, 2008

IPBE[edit]

We're doing some early "spring cleaning" and it seems that you've been inactive in the last three months. Typically, IP rangeblocks do not last quite this long, so I've taken the liberty of removing the extraneous permission from your account. You should be fine, though if you experience problems due to IP blocks again, please re-request the permission.

If you're no longer editing for some reason, please feel welcome to do so again in the future! Kylu (talk) 04:59, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I did not post, & have nothing to do with, the Broadcasting Press Guild page called out here. Kilrea (talk) 23:56, 17 July 2012 (UTC)Kilrea (17 July 2012)[reply]

Even though the copyrighted material was available on Wikipedia up until I posted the message on your talk page, it was added to Wikipedia more than 6 years ago, so you may not remember doing it. Here is a link to the edit that created this article (note the user name in the pink box). As the article was created with this edit (there are no previous revisions), the material was added by Kilrea. Were you in control of this account in February 2006, or did you inherit it from someone else since? TimofKingsland (talk) 02:35, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the link; useful, since I've never seen the entry. Note the use of "we" in the original posting, indicating it was written by a member of the Broadcasting Press Guild. I am not, nor have I ever been, such a member. That my user name is also Kilrea & that I became active on Wiki at the end of January, 2006, is a coincidence ~ one that could perhaps be explained if there is (or was) no barrier to duplication of user names. At any rate, I can only repeat: I did not post, & have nothing to do with, the Broadcasting Press Guild page. Meanwhile, deletion of copyrighted material is a very clearly articulated term of use; & one with which I wholeheartedly concur. So, with the understanding that the tree up which you are barking was NOT planted by me, let's let this thing rest.
