PGP-Key
Hello Konaya, you tell us on your user-page that you have a PGP-key, but you don’t provide it. Could you please use a pgp-template with an ID-field (like Template:User PGP)? Also it would be great if you could send me your key-ID by wiki-mail or leave it on my talk-page. Thanks :-). --DaB. (talk) 13:44, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late reply. I have now updated my talk page accordingly. Cheers! Konaya (talk) 12:36, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

 * (IPCheck) | (Range Resolution /24) | (BlockList)
 * Note: If the /22 were unblocked, reblocks would be: Special:Contribs/185.236.40.0/24, Special:Contribs/185.236.42.0/24, Special:Contribs/185.236.43.0/24.
 * Would IPBE be a better option? They have access to a non-blocked IP. I'd like an opinion from another reviewing admin. SQL Query me!  16:06, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Additionally, Special:Contributions/185.236.41.0/24 is globally blocked on all projects. SQL Query me!  16:08, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I can assert with a fair amount of confidence that neither 185.236.40.0/24 nor 185.236.41.0/24 will be made available to customers in any foreseeable future, so blocking them simply for belonging to a hosting provider is inaccurate at any rate. If you ever notice any malicious traffic from these two subnets, make a note of it here and I'll gladly cuff 'em on the ear for you. Konaya (talk) 16:26, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * The static assignment is always the same for you and your IP does not change at all?
 * The IP that you are on currently isn't in any of the ranges that you have indicated above. Google "whatismyipaddress" and confirm your IP here.
 * If a fixed IP can be determined then that IP could be anon-blocked which would allow accounts to use it although the larger range remains hardblocked...and this is easier administratively instead of all those reblocks. For that matter, the /24 might could be anon-blocked as a possibility.
 * , TIL, I didn't realize it worked that way. Most specific block wins? SQL Query me!  17:00, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes. I created one for Andy Mabbett in this ANI thread that worked and I give some details on how to detect pinhole blocks in a subthread. When you block a range, the more specific blocks on IPs or subranges are holes so if you want your blocks to be thorough, you may have to remove some of those. The details in my example used at ANI may not be correct now because some of the blocks have likely expired. I believe that Andy is still using his pinhole.
