Dear Sir or Madam:
On behalf of Wikipedia's Abuse Response Team, I am contacting you to inform you of an incident or incidents of abuse originating from your network. Wikipedia is a multilingual project to create a complete and accurate open content encyclopedia that can be used by anyone with Internet access free of charge. The English version may be viewed on the Web at http://en.wikipedia.org. A fundamental component of Wikipedia is that it may be edited by virtually anyone, as long as their edits benefit the goal of creating an encyclopedia. This approach has the downside that it exposes us to large scale vandalism, something that we are always trying to combat. We are able to achieve this by utilizing automated bots and tools to detect and revert unconstructive edits. If a user is identified as repeatedly abusing their privilege to edit Wikipedia, they are blocked, either temporarily or permanently. I have completed an investigation and discovered that an IP address which appears to be registered to your organization, 208.34.235.254, has been habitually abusing Wikipedia by vandalizing articles at http://en.wikipedia.org. His or her actions are likely preventing other users on your network from contributing, as this IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia on multiple occasions. Multiple warnings have been issued over a long duration of time, asking the user to refrain from abusive use of Wikipedia. However, the user has chosen to ignore the warnings, and as a result has incurred several blocks to this IP address under your jurisdiction. I am contacting you because this user continues to abuse Wikipedia after his or her block expires and because this user has been blocked five times or more, justifying a need for a report to your organization. The Wikipedia Community takes abuse of Wikipedia very seriously. The Wikipedia Abuse Response Team has completed a thorough investigation on this matter which includes a detailed log of activities conducted by the IP address in question. The server logs which includes timestamps of the activity should assist you in identifying the user responsible for abusing Wikipedia. The entire case is available for you to view at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Abuse_response/208.34.235.254 Additional information regarding this users most recent contributions to Wikipedia may be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/208.34.235.254 The block log for this IP may be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/block&page=User:208.34.235.254 In the future you may wish to monitor contributions made from this IP number at: (RSS & ATOM feeds) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:208.34.235.254 Please investigate and take action as deemed necessary, at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your cooperation. Should you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. |

Thank you for your recent report to EMBARQ Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) Enforcement. If you do not wish to receive this acknowledgement in the future, you may send your reports to [email protected].
Please remember to include the full header information when reporting violations of EMBARQ's AUP. Abuse complaints without complete header information cannot be processed. Please include all supporting information in the body of your note. Do not use the �attach file� feature in your email client because attachments (e.g. Word/Excel documents or .gif/.jpg images) cannot be opened. Due to the volume of reports received, it may not be feasible for EMBARQ to respond personally to each message; however, all potential violations of EMBARQ�s established AUP are taken seriously. The information you have provided will be used to investigate your reported incident. You may be contacted if further information is required to process your violation report. Once the investigation is complete, appropriate action will be taken when necessary in accordance with EMBARQ�s AUP. Again, thank you for your recent report. Regards, EMBARQ Acceptable Use Policy Enforcement |
