Accept reason:
- I do see a long history of perfectly good edits from your account, but do not see a block applied to it. Possibly another editor at your place of work is to blame. Please post here the exact message you see when you try to edit.--"talk" 12:37, 4 January 2013 (UTC)]
- At the very least, you need to tell us what IP address is blocked, as otherwise we have no way of knowing, and so we can't unblock. talk) 13:49, 4 January 2013 (UTC)]

I am at 213.229.85.68, the error says: Editing from 213.229.64.0/18 has been blocked (disabled) by DeltaQuad for the following reason(s): The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because the IP range you are editing from is a web host provider...

- If you are willing to read and accept the conditions at WP:IPEC, we can start the process to give you IP-block exemption, which would make this a non-issue. Daniel Case (talk) 15:18, 4 January 2013 (UTC)]
- Yes, but IP block exemption is not by any means automatic, and it is best not to grant it without first having a checkuser look at the case. talk) 15:22, 4 January 2013 (UTC)]

- Thanks, is it possible to show me the abusive edits? Jamie Kitson (talk) 16:36, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
- I'm afraid that I cannot do that as that's prohibited by our privacy policy. I can tell you that one of them was using the range to evade a block, while the other was using the range, along with accounts on a number of other webhost ranges, to spam external links. T. Canens (talk) 16:43, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
- Ok, I just wondered on the off chance that it was one of my colleagues :) Jamie Kitson (talk) 17:06, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
- It is unlikely that you know the person the block is intended to stop. I've gone ahead and given you IP block exemption so you should be able to edit again. —DoRD (talk) 19:06, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
- Update: Now that the block has been changed to allow logged-in users to edit, IPBE is no longer necessary, so I've removed the exemption. Please let me know if you still have trouble editing. —DoRD (talk) 22:35, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 8
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Olympus Stylus Epic, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Olympus (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Tense
I have thought about changing tense, but not done it often. As you note, Portra is still available because Kodak is still selling it. But Panatomic-X is still available because there are people selling old rolls. (I just bought two rolls dated 1962.) Many computer descriptions use past tense, even though at least one it still around. And the architecture exists even if no implementations still exist. Does seem that there should be more present tense. Gah4 (talk) 10:13, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- It also meant that the second sentence didn't match the tense of the first.Jamie Kitson (talk) 12:06, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
