The '''{{CW}}''' at '''{{CPDL}}''' has been and currently still seems to be being hit by one or more vandals who register, create pages with so-called Technical Support phone numbers for various commercial products and software.  '''{{CPDL}}''' does not in any way whatsoever condone or permit such activity.  Furthermore, as a charitable nonprofit organization, we do not endorse any unsolicited advertising or pages providing technical or other support for such commercial products.  That being said, the mostly likely aim of these vandals, other than disruption, is to attempt to entice users to contact what are almost assuredly bogus phone numbers, or to click on potentially dangerous links.  We are doing out best to monitor such activity, delete such vandalism, and block the offending users.
 
<b>To counteract the vandals, new registrations to '''{{CW}}''' are now subject to approval by the administrators. Please use the [[Special:RequestAccount|Request account]] function, and allow some time to the administrators to review and approve your request.</b>
