I agree with this, & would like to hear more about how long the blocks last, how to unblock IPs, etc.--the links are close together on the History pages, and I'd hate to ban someone unintentionally. I couldn't agree more that blocking an IP should only be done to prevent vandalism, & never in anger. I also like the suggestion that we not be able to block anyone logged in--or would vandals simply start logging in?

I think our wikipdia "code of honor" should be: never in anger, never in a fight over content. Those have to be settled "on a fair playing field", through reason, not software powers.0
