Spelling

OK, so you have a problem with spelling. There is, at present, no spellchecker on wikipedia, although you could create long articles first on microsoft word, which does have one, and then insert them here. Or you could ask someone to look over your edits before you post them; as you are still at high school there must be someone around who could do that? Or, for short edits, you could always use a dictionary? --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 21:48, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Just to butt in, what browser and OS are you using, Bob? I know for a fact that Firefox on Mac OS X includes a real-time (as you type) spellchecker; I can't speak for Firefox on anything else but I'd be surprised if it doesn't - http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/using+the+spell+checker doesn't say anything about being OS-specific. Maybe if you're not using Firefox you could try it? (ironically, in front of me at this moment the Firefox spellchecker is underlining the word "Firefox"in red. Now that's what I call rubbish marketing!) Tonywalton Talk 22:14, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

{{adminhelp}} Why am I blocked for what "I Am Not bob the VI" did? He attacked me and now I'm blocked. There seems to be something wrong here. Is it because he was on the same IP?

You have been unblocked since March 24th, you should be able to edit normally. If you still can't let me know. Icestorm815Talk 20:28, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
Actually, you've been autoblocked, because your IP address was used by the above mentioned user. I've removed the autoblock for you. Stwalkerstertalk ] 20:32, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

{{adminhelp|Is their a way to make me exempted from IP blocks. My school is blocked a lot and it is the only location I can get on the internet from. I keep getting block indirectly because of this.}}I Am Bob the VI (talk) 18:27, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Try using {{unblock-auto}} Tiptoety talk 19:23, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Or try emailing unblock-en-l@lists.wikimedia.org - they'll be more likely to review your request. I'm not one who deals in IPBE much, so I'm best not doing it. Stwalkerstertalk ] 23:24, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
