Template:CheckUser block

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that the IP address or network of your account has been used, not necessarily by you, to disrupt Wikipedia. It has been blocked from editing to prevent further abuse. If you get this message, please read the following information.
Wikipedia tries to be open, but we sometimes must block a range of IP addresses or entire network, to prevent editing by abusers, vandals, or block evaders. These "range blocks" can affect users who have done nothing wrong. If you are a legitimate user, follow the instructions below to edit despite the block. Users who are the intended target of a range block may still appeal the block.

IP users (without an account): If you do not currently have a account and wish to bypass this block, an account can be created to allow you to edit. Please use this form or e-mail us at unblock-en-l@lists.wikimedia.org (you will be unable to copy the "@" from this sentence) to request an account under your preferred username. It is important that you use an e-mail address issued to you by your ISP, school, or organisation, so we may verify that you are a legitimate user. If using the form, please refer to this block under "comments". If e-mailing, please refer to this block in your message.

Registered users (with an account): If you already have an account in good standing, please follow these instructions. You may also request IP block exemption to bypass blocks unconnected with you that affect your editing. Post an unblock request to your user talk page.

Administrators: CheckUsers are privy to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not amend or remove this block without consulting a CheckUser. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped, per this notice.
