Appealing block
Thank you for responding. However, I don't understand. How can a blocked IP address such as mine request to be unblocked from a registered Wikipedia account? I don't have a registered Wikipedia account. If I did, I would not be editing Wikipedia from an unregistered IP address. Are you saying I need to create a Wikipedia account from a different IP address in order to request my IP block be reviewed? (And if so, wouldn't that be considered block evasion?). The instructional prompt that was given to me on how to request an unblock did not say anything about restrictions on who can request an unblock. By the way, I can prove I am physically present in Cambodia. The person who blocked me did so soley on the assumption that I am editing a cryptocurrency article from a non-English speaking country, therefore I must be using a proxy. 58.97.215.166 (talk) 08:12, 22 January 2024 (UTC) Update 20-02-2024: Proof I am physically in Cambodia. I took this photo personally on February 19th.

 * What I meant was pretty simple: If your IP is on a server we have identified as being configured as an open proxy (even if you yourself are not using it disruptively, and you may indeed be unaware of your ISP having done this) we will not unblock it, as that would defeat the purpose of blocking it in the first place. So if you don't want to register an account but still want to edit, your only option is to use a device connected to a server that is not blocked. Daniel Case (talk) 07:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Okay, thank you. That's all I wanted to hear. There was no reason for the admin who blocked me to make all of these assumptions about me in their talk page. If they had said what you just said, I would have been okay with it. I appreciate your openness to the idea that I may be telling the truth. It's how Wikipedia should operate. 58.97.215.166 (talk) 15:13, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
