I'll try to help
Hi PillowTalking. I saw the feedback you left and I'll try to get somebody to help. - Hydroxonium (T•C• [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&limit=1&amp;username=Hydroxonium V] ) 16:57, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Requesting IP block exemption for new user
This new user created an account a few days ago. They left this message at the feedback dashboard that they can't edit because of a block. I'm guessing a rangeblock. The rules at WP:IPBE don't seem to cover new users in this situation and I doubt a new user would know what to do even if it did. So I'm requesting an IP block exemption on this user's behalf. This may need a checkuser to do some checking, but I don't have any experience with this so I don't know for sure. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. - Hydroxonium (T•C• [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&limit=1&amp;username=Hydroxonium V] ) 17:15, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Hmm. If they can't edit, they shouldn't have been able to edit the feedback dashboard either....The underlying IP is not autoblocked, or blocked as a proxy. An IP rangeblock will not affect a logged in user, and there is at least one other user editing from this IP currently (to be expected in a public library I suppose). PillowTalking needs to post here with the message they are getting when they try to edit. It is possible that they tried to edit a semi-protected page, and of course couldn't because they wont be autoconfirmed. If they could try a few edits to their talkpage or userpage, that would confirm it. --Elen of the Roads (talk) 19:44, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
