User talk:Brighton Reuben

Hello. I just created an account today. I tried to edit from my local starbucks and it says I cannot for some reason. Please help.

Hold on. I'm new at this. I just got some message. Let me see if I can find it again.

unblock

Okay, it says "CheckUser evidence has determined that this IP address or network has been used (not necessarily by you) to disrupt Wikipedia. It has been blocked from editing to prevent further abuse."

Not sure what this means. I'd like to edit Wikipedia. I'm here at a coffee shop. I could edit it fine at home. What do I do?

Also said some other stuff. What's going on? Anybody there?


 * In short, return home to edit. It appears someone (not necessarily you, as the message says) edited Wikipedia disruptively from the copy shop's IP address, leading to a block. It's unfortunate that you also suffer for it, but since you have a way to edit without the coffee shop's internet connection, it's better for Wikipedia to not have you and the vandal both edit from there, and we cannot block one person from that IP and let another edit.

That's really inconvenient. You guys need a better system.

 Your ability to edit this talk page has been revoked as an administrator has identified your talk page edits as inappropriate and/or disruptive. ([ block log] • [ active blocks] • [ global blocks] • [//tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/autoblock/?user=&project=en.wikipedia.org autoblocks] • contribs • deleted contribs • [ abuse filter log] • [ • change block settings • [ unblock] • [ checkuser] ([ log]))

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System. If the block is a CheckUser or Oversight block, was made by the Arbitration Committee or to enforce an arbitration decision (arbitration enforcement), or is unsuitable for public discussion, you should appeal to the Arbitration Committee. Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice. Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:25, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
