Unblock
I am a professor of Political Science/History at Three Rivers Community College. I am writing to inform you that this administrative hold is blocking student access to an assignment because most are non-traditional students who are commuting to a satellite campus in southeast Missouri and only have access to the computer lab.

It seems clear that the IP block restricts the entire campus since I am typing this from my office and received the same notification. Please remove this hold so my students can complete their work as assigned.

If it of any reassurance, I have gotten the culpable student (see above) to confess to Internet vandalism and have given him another assignment which does require access to this website. You have my permission to delete his account if you prefer.

Thank you. Winner423 (talk) 05:24, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

Mr. Knight,

Yes, they have been given an editing assignment to display the malleability of historic fact. I am assuming the contact is as listed, i.e., "Yunshui." It would appear as if we've been a victim of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Disabling_edits_by_unregistered_users_and_stricter_registration_requirement#Justification

 * As I am sure the administrators above are aware, your first and only edits were to take up exactly where User:Maldoror2 and User:Journalstudent and left off, including disrupting Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Edward Snowden Affair: Exposing the Politics and Media Behind the NSA Scandal (2nd nomination).

Your comments at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Maldoror2
Professor, I was much put off by the tone of your remarks. It's my experience that Wikipedia editors and admins do not react well to sarcasm and disparagement. It might be wise to remember that you alone are defending The Edward Snowden Affair: Exposing the Politics and Media Behind the NSA Scandal. You do your case no good by attempting to shift the blame ("How Wikipedia chose to handle this situation created a problem for many, many people … I'm trying to tell them it's your fault") and dispensing snark ("I truly cannot thank you enough for this … I love how Wikipedia does business").
