User:IowaStateUniversity : IowaStateUniversity

The IowaStateUniversity Wikipedia identity is a function of both the Wikipedia convention of tying identities to IP numbers, and the continued use by Iowa State University of several large Unix servers, available for use by most of the campus community.

It would be misleading to identify contributions coming from one of these servers as necessarily belonging to just one person, so preferences for the 4 or 5 ips associated with these servers will be attributed more generally to the university, rather than to an individual.

This use of the identity isn't to imply any formal endorsement by the university of the contributions made by individuals here. It is only to indicate, in general terms, the physical or network location of the contributors.
