Description Nitika 2012-10-03 06:11:03 UTC
The local community is conducting an outreach event at Pune on 7th Oct.
This will include account creation and uploading pictures on commons as a part of Wikipedia takes Pune outreach event.
 

We are expecting about 30-50 people to attend.  One of the things we'd like to
do is encourage potential new editors to create their own usernames
during the session and upload pictures of Pune they have clicked.

Is there a way of removing the 7 username for a 6 hour period for the following
IP address for 14.140.227.85 & 14.140.227.65  for the duration of the workshop (7th Oct between 03.30 and 15.30 UTC)

(Workship is for 3 hours but I'm requesting 6 hours just in case we are over
time or someone stays back to edit.)
