I would also oppose the automatic inclusion of the shared IP comment. Some vandal accounts are shared, some are not. Shared IPs should be noted separately using the {{tl|sharedIP|}} template. [[User:Rossami|Rossami]] <small>[[User talk:Rossami|(talk)]]</small> 14:28, 3 March 2006 (UTC) |

Used to mark pages of anonymous editors who have been repeatedly blocked for vandalism.
Changes

- Yeah, me too -- and my eyes are in their 50s. It's supposed to be uggily. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 22:49, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- No, it's not supposed to be obnoxious. We got some template guidelines for talkpages which we should stick to.
