MediaWiki talk:Autoblockedtext/sandbox

  You are currently unable to edit Wikipedia due to an autoblock affecting this IP address. This is because someone using this internet address or shared proxy server was blocked. The ability of all users on this IP address to edit pages has been automatically suspended to prevent abuse by the blocked party. Innocent users are sometimes caught in an autoblock. It may be the case that you have done nothing wrong.

A user of this IP address was blocked by $1 for the following reason (see our blocking policy):

This block has been set to expire: $6. The block ID is: $5.

'''Note that you have not been blocked from editing directly. Most likely your computer is on a shared network with other people.''' If you believe that you should not be subjected to this autoblock, please follow the instructions at Autoblock.

Unblock request
If you are unjustly affected by this block, please copy-paste the following text to the bottom of your user talk page:

An administrator will show up shortly to review the block once you have added the above template to the bottom of your talk page.

If this problem affects you repeatedly, we encourage you to contact your service provider or IT department and ask them to contact Wikimedia's XFF project about enabling X-Forwarded-For HTTP headers on their proxy servers. This will reduce the chances of you being affected by future automatic blocks.

Alternative option
You will usually get a faster reply by posting the  template on your talk page, as described above. If you need help, however, you can submit a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System at the link below for assistance. Make sure to include the block ID number shown above.

Even though requests sent to the Unblock Ticket Request System are viewable only by administrators and trusted volunteers, under no circumstances should you send us your account's password or reveal it to anyone else even if asked to.

This system exists for the purpose of reviewing blocks only—any request to make edits to articles on your behalf will be disregarded. Correspondence containing legal threats, personal attacks or rudeness are likely to be ignored and may result in the lengthening of pre-existing blocks.
