It's been 5 years since any of those IPs vandalized the site, so there is pretty much no chance that they are used by the same person. I personally don't think [[IP address]]es should be banned for more then a month unless there is persistent | It's been 5 years since any of those IPs vandalized the site, so there is pretty much no chance that they are used by the same person. I personally don't think [[IP address]]es should be banned for more then a month unless there is persistent [[vandal]]ism over a very long period of time from it. | ||
As for Plasmarelais, I don't think there was any malicious intent involved there - the redirect worked because of the site's [[Special:interwiki|interwiki]] feature.

:Blocking old IPs . . . yes, I suppose you are correct on that. In my defence, I'm using a netbook, and I often miss the bottom of the page (forget to scroll down) on my woefully small screen. I've noticed that many had been previously blocked for short-term periods. I'll refrain from this from now on. :) | :Blocking old IPs . . . yes, I suppose you are correct on that.

:Re [[ | :Re [[Special:Contributions/Plasmarelais|Plasmarelais]] - I'm not at all convinced of any 'innocence'. Plasmarelais is an admin on Wikia - and is no doubt very aware of the intricate nature of combining a 'redirect' with an 'interwiki'. IMVHO, that was quite a sneaky thing to do - and it took me a while to figure out how to 'undo' a new page creation (with no history) which went straight to a hard redirect. The correct and decent thing would be to just have a common-or-garden http:// url to his Wikia page - not the forced redirect! Finally, why just create a forced redirect to another wiki site, but not carry out any constructive editing to this wiki?
