Question about an IP block

Hi. I've been editing since March 2005, and an admin since November 2007, and today, while I was waiting for a train, I tried to edit the Jersey City Medical Center article from my iPhone, and got a message saying that blocked by you for BLP violations, with the block set to expire November 8, 2012. Even odder, the IP indicated is 166.137.136.0/22. I was unaware of any IPs with forward slashes in them, and I couldn't find this IP when I returned home and used my username account. Can you explain if this is a legitimate IP, and what BLP violations were committed from it? Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 01:19, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See mw:Help:Range blocks. That block is a block of 1,024 IP addresses. Courcelles 01:22, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
User talk:Timotheus Canens/Archives/2011/11#Possible rangeblock and User talk:Timotheus Canens/Archives/2011/3#Persistant IP and User talk:Timotheus Canens/Archives/2010/11#Re-block needed have the details. T. Canens (talk) 01:34, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ah. I see. Is there any way for the IP of my iPhone to be exempt from that range block? Nightscream (talk) 05:23, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Um, no. Cellphone IPs are not static. If you log in (not necessarily on your admin account - you can create one for your iPhone) then you shouldn't be affected by the block though. T. Canens (talk) 08:19, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I meant if I didn't log in. Nightscream (talk) 06:31, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Then no. There's no way for the system to distinguish you from the vandal if you don't log in. T. Canens (talk) 06:32, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thanks for the info, Tim. :-) Nightscream (talk) 05:56, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nagorno-Karabakh article" thread in AE

Hello Tim. The thread in AE forum [1] has been open for more than two weeks already, and I tend to believe the discussion has run its course. I guess, it is not unreasonable to request to put the issue to rest, and simply advise the interested parties to stick to productive discussion on talk pages of the article itself. Have a nice day.

Tom harrison ban

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

As a reminder, Mkat had allowed for 30 days before reviewing the indef. We are just a couple of days away from reaching it. Are you going to re-examine the case? I don't think Tom has done anything particularly objectionable since the ban was instated.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 16:29, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with TDA above, but emphasize that Tom hadn't done anything objectionable to begin with...Tom doesn't think so either gathering from his talkpage comments...when discussing the conspiracy theories behind 9/11, and the history of their evolution, it isn't news except to those poorly versed in these ridiculous theories that there was at least early on, a strong anti-Semitic overtone to many of them. Perhaps Tom could be asked to provide further background on this matter in his usertalk but that thesis may be too advanced for this pedia.MONGO 12:52, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

While please of innocence are not looked fondly upon, I don't particularly mind if he thinks he was right or not so long as he commits to not doing it again.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 01:54, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Did you mean pleas...? I doubt Tom would bother to do that under these circumstances...in fact, I imagine that even if the ridiculous ban were lifted, he won't be doing much in that arena anytime soon anyway...the issue is that the ban was preposterous to begin with. But as I said, "that thesis may be too advanced for this pedia" since we're supposed to be politically correct and all....God forbid we may try and provide clarity and background to where much of the idiotic 9/11 conspiracy theories originated from...a premise soon afterward dropped since it was sure to doom the promotional aspects of the absurd and undercut the cons that have printed books and peddled their ignorant misinformation solely to make a buck.--MONGO 03:24, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Why do you care? You're the reporter, not the victim. Your vindictivenes and you taking it personally is part of tehe problem as to why you are such a problematic editor and your manipulation of the reporting system left a respected editor "topic banned" and another administrator to quit the tools. You yourself however continue to waste everybodies time on An/I and other venues trying to wikilawyer your way to relevance. How about we just presume Tom is no longer topic banned and you leave the topic alone. Both 9/11 and Tom. --DHeyward (talk) 04:08, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Dhey, your comments here are not helpful. I am trying to see if Tim might lift Tom's ban soon not pick a fight.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 06:12, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So, Tim, are you going to re-examine the ban on your own or are you going to want Tom to appeal it?--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 22:34, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I can't speak for Tom but I doubt he's going to appeal it...maybe it would be best you not even mention it to him. Perhaps Tim and Tom can discuss it another time.--MONGO 06:19, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Diplomacy 101: If you want someone to lift a topic ban they agreed with, it might not be the best idea to call it "ridiculous" and "preposterous". Regardless, I'm travelling until March 18 and am unable to do a full review until then. If you want the ban lifted before then, you'll have to make an appeal at AE; otherwise, I'll take a look once I get back. T. Canens (talk) 06:22, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'll call it what it is...had you bothered to do some homework and not be so biased and uneducated in your action, you wouldn't have screwed this up to begin with...if your action was so sound then why did another admin resign over it completely and another editor walk away from editing in protest. If I check AN/I or some other venue, am I going to find other issues with your admin work? I bet so. There is nothing to review except your absurd overreaction to a few diffs out of the thousands made by Tom harrison in this topic area.--MONGO 06:42, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Tom hasn't said anything so far about appealing, but March 18 seems like a reasonable time. I just want to make sure you don't forget about him.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 07:07, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taiwan

Re [2]. Although Taiwan and the Republic of China aren't related to Macedonia or Ireland, the dispute around the naming of the Republic of China article is essentially identical as the previous disputes around Republic of Ireland and Republic of Macedonia. Further, only registered users may file a new case at WP:A/R/C. Would you reconsider your decision, or advise what I should do to file a new case? 61.18.170.26 (talk) 18:19, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No. You might want to ask a clerk for help. T. Canens (talk) 06:23, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
