Template:ja-rail-line
Hi, I undid your edit on that template, because the last row of the table got messed up. Its position was in the same line with the row above the last row. I don't know how to build or change templates, but now it's working again. If there is a need for changing it, you maybe have to try something else. --R0pe-196 (talk) 08:12, 6 November 2008 (UTC)


 * A few problems with what you gave as reasons. First, I blanked the discussion because it cluttered up the page.  I assumed you would read it, as I put a note in the comments for that edit.  Second, the definition of anonymous is that you don't know who the person in question is.  I just told you, all traffic from that /64 is me.  Its anonymous if more than one person is using a single ip address or if one person is using several.  I'm doing neither.  Third, I am not using Hurricane Electric as a tunnel broker, though I have used that functionality in the past.  That IP range is the assigned range for my corporate account and co-located machines at their Fremont facility. That alone makes it very much not anonymous. Routing a 64 to my home is a security measure and convenience, nothing more or less.  Fourth, all traffic on the internet is routed.  Saying that IP traffic is routed through an isp is not saying anything.  Fifth, as you probably can guess, this is not about my ability to edit.  This is about the accusation that I am anonymizing my edits, which is simply not true.  I have never made an edit without being logged in, so by that simple fact alone I am not anonymizing anything. If I had the desire to edit anonymously, it would be all too easy. If you had put a block on editing when not logged in from a class of IP addresses, I could possibly see the justification.  To reject edits from a class of IP addresses which is connected to one person who only edits while logged in can never be said to be done because the edits are anonymous. it's me, it's always me, it's only me. Your policy makes no sense.  I don't expect you will change your mind, but I cannot fathom how you could fail to see the huge disparity in the intent of the policy and its application in this case.
