Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Passion Pit may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Request reason:

Requesting an IP address block exemption, because I believe I have been a registered user on Wikipedia with a history of good edits over the past few years. At the current moment, I am using a privately rented and owned VPS running OpenVPN for all of my web traffic needs due to my current circumstances. My IP address is 107.191.125.145, and I am the only user of this address and will /only/ be the only user of this address. As a result, since all of my web traffic is routed through this VPN, I am hoping to be unblocked so I can once again edit articles I wish to contribute towards. I was intending to edit the El Ten Eleven article when I learned of my IP ban, but I have also contributed to a variety of other musically-oriented articles in the past. This block is likely affecting me because this IP range is undoubtedly used across an entire data center, so it's likely that this range is being used by several other machines with possible malicious intent. However, I am confident that this single IP address is trustworthy and completely verifiable to only be associated with my user account. This VPN is the only way I can browse the Internet 99% of the time, so it greatly impacts my ability to contribute to Wikipedia. Please consider lifting this IP ban!

Accept reason:

IP block exemption granted. The IP block is not lifted due to web hosting providers being constantly used for abusive edits. Reaper Eternal (talk) 13:17, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

You're better off requesting WP:IP block exemption as opposed to an unblock, if you literally have no choice but to edit thru a VPN. —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 18:14, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

I have modified my unblock request to request an IP address block exemption. Jflory7 (talk) 13:11, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

You might have more success emailing the functionaries group at functionaries-en@lists.wikimedia.org as they are in a better place to handle IP block exemptions. Also, the admin who placed the original range block, Elockid has disappeared, so we can't tell what the original rational for the block was, though as an open proxy, it's fairly obvious.

Replaceable fair use File:Signal Hill (band) group photo, taken by Pamela Masters.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Signal Hill (band) group photo, taken by Pamela Masters.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 19:24, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.
