really an accepted part of policy, for a system that blocks
established users along with anonymous users from contributing?
Could you tell us what IPs this is regarding?

It's 169.244.143.115. Blocking that blocks every public computer in the
whole state, apparently.
Four months just seems excessive. I thought there was a maximum length
for blocks on IP's that are shared, like by public libraries and schools.
