Schoolhouse image

It's my view that the one room schoolhouse image is juvenile, and as such encourages school vandals to continue with their juvenile behavior. Let's discuss replacing the schoolhouse with a more "grown up" image, such as an icon of a graduate wearing a square academic cap.– Gilliam (talk) 17:07, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject on XFFs is now a soft-redirect to meta:XFF project, so having sentences linking to both are redundant. Please remove "Alternatively, you can list this IP address at Wikipedia:WikiProject on XFFs". Thanks. Kharkiv07 (T) 23:50, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

School/Elite proxy

This IP is also shown as being an elite proxy by [1], as well as some other IPs that appear to be educational. Should the template be changed to also say that it could be used by non-affiliated people?--69.223.191.153 (talk) 00:21, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The code that replaces the IP address parameter with the actual IP address uses a dead tool from labs (https://tools.wmflabs.org/splinetools/whois/ip/). Could someone replace the code so that it directs to a whois that works? Perhaps whatismyipaddress.com which is what the Geolocate button at the bottom of IP talk and contribution pages links to?

I updated the template to remove the deadlink, but will need to get better consensus here as to exactly what to change this to, and ensure it is well tested. Note, the footer of all ip talk pages ALREADY has WHOIS and ALL the RIR links. — xaosflux Talk 23:40, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The relevant piece of code could be copied from {{whois}} I think. Bazj (talk) 08:32, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to mock it up in Template:Shared IP edu/sandbox (I synced that sandbox before the last edits), after sandboxing go through the testcases - if they all work feel free to open a new edit request to have it synced to the main template. If you just wanted to suggest someone else work on it, they can do the same. — xaosflux Talk 14:39, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If this template is used without the name parameter, then the template text reads:

"Your IP address, xxx.xxx.xx.x , and may be shared by multiple users, so you might receive messages on this page that were not intended for you."

Can the " , and" after the IP address be included only if the first parameter is specified?
