User talk:41.204.224.10

I have now unblocked this IP address. As there is no history of vandalism from this address then I don't believe it should be blocked. I don't agree with the Wiki project against "open proxies" as IP addresses often change ownership and blocking addresses will turn people away from Wiki projects and frustrate them more. Blocks should only be used against usernames and IP addresses with a proven vandalism record. The current method of blocking open proxies is like castrating all men just because some men are sexually violent.

This IP address has had frequent use on Wikipedia. Much of the use is on a variety of pages suggesting that this is indeed a shared IP address and possibly at a cybercafe. Some of the Wikipedia edits were possible vandalism but much of it was constructive. If any administrator with 'check user' rights can investigate further then this may be helpful.
