Back but Blocked
I took a not so short break from Wikipedia, but as promised I returned only to be greeted by a blocked message!
I understand Wikipedia's policies regarding blocking IP ranges of schools and colleges (I am at BITS, Pilani). But, since I am logged in this should not be an issue.
I have no previous experience of a Wikipedia block, does this mean I cannot edit Wikipedia at all from my college? This is sad. Is there no way? Someone please help!
I hope we can figure out some solution!

Block message:
This IP address has been blocked because it is believed to be an open proxy or zombie computer. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. If your ISP has misconfigured its proxy, you can try bypassing it by logging into Wikimedia's secure gateway at https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/. For more information about open proxies and what you can do, please see the WikiProject on open proxies. |
Decline reason: Your IP, 202.78.165.2 (talk · contribs) is blocked as an open proxy; see meta:WM:OP/H. — Sandstein 08:52, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- I know I am blocked because I am behind a proxy. Can anyone help me find a solution to this? Please I request.

- I appealed for IP block exemption to be enabled on my account at unblock-en-l (at) lists.wikimedia.org. I hope that was the right thing to do for now. I am awaiting a reply. Any suggestions, anyone? Mayank Abhishek 14:23, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi. In reply to your e-mail, please ask the IT staff of your university to secure their server so that it is no longer an open proxy. Once that is done, please ask at WP:OP for a check of the server's status and a removal of the block. Best, Sandstein 15:22, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
