Why is my IP (168.224.1.14) blocked?

It was blocked because of edits made from that IP by Trollwatcher (talk · contribs), who was involved in collecting information about editors, and then posted links to a website which attacked these editors, and which gave real names, photos, etc. Those edits have now been removed from the history of the pages, and are available only to administrators. Connected to this unfortunate business were incidents of real life stalking, contacting the superior of an editor, anonymous letters, threats to spouse and children of an editor, etc. I'm sorry if you got caught up in something that you had nothing to do with. You should be able to edit normally now. If not, leave another message here on your talk page, which I have added to my watchlist. The 168.224.1.14 (talk · contribs) edits may also give you some indication of the problem, although, as I said, the more serious attacks and violations of privacy have been removed from the history of pages. Sorry about the inconvenience. AnnH 11:01, 27 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
