[WikiEN-l] The irritation of a server being blocked through the actions of another

[Robert Brookes]

One assumes that Arwel Parry was acting in good faith when he blocked IP 198.54.202.242. Sadly that is the IP of a server and thus will affect a large number of people if they happen to be members of Wikipedia. Surely there is a more technically precise manner in which to block vandals without blocking members who actually login to edit Wikipedia?
