User talk:109.166.233.126

August 2024

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generalisation, other talk pages are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. Thanks. --Yamla (talk) 11:56, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't know who else to ask! 109.166.233.126 (talk) 11:58, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Huh... why have I now been blocked as a troll? 109.166.233.126 (talk) 12:02, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

109.166.233.126 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Why have I been blocked as a troll? I only wanted some advice! Please can I be allowed to edit properly again, I'm sorry for posting what I did. I won't do it again, I promise. 109.166.233.126 (talk) 12:04, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Your suggested edit below would be completely inappropriate and shows you don't understand WP:CITE and WP:RS, nor WP:COPYRIGHT. WP:BLP may also apply. Yamla (talk) 12:34, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Please give a sample constructive edit that you plan to make. This must be non-trivial (so, no grammar or spelling fixes, for example) but doesn't need to be large. It must adhere to WP:5P. If you have no planned edit, there's no reason to consider lifting the block. --Yamla (talk) 12:06, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to add the following content to the article John Brennan Crutchley:

Proxy

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be an open or anonymizing proxy, such as a VPN service. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

If you are using an open proxy or VPN service, you will need to disable it or turn it off in order to edit Wikipedia.

If you believe you are not using an anonymizing proxy, the most likely cause is that another customer using your IP address who was previously assigned this IP address was running an open proxy. You may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the Unblock Ticket Request System.

More rarely, your network equipment or that of your service provider may be misconfigured or compromised by malicious software (such as a virus). For more information, see the WikiProject on Open Proxies.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using an open or anonymizing proxies in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
