Unblock 68.221.192.59

I was trying to edit the "Development of Windows Vista" article to have another picture on it, but it told me that my IP was blocked. I tried editing my talk page to appeal the block but I was blocked from editing my own talk page (linuxlove8088). I haven't done any malicious acts nor do I plan to. If I do, then most likely it will be someone who has hacked my account. So... Could I get this IP unblocked? Thanks.

A problem

I am editing from a neighborhood in Alabama that has been blocked for the reason "sock vandals". I have no idea how long it has been in effect but considering that who ever did it were bored teenagers that long forgotten about Wikipedia, can't you unblock the range? 68.221.199.166 22:49, 15 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions.
Please also review Global blocking. Only IP addresses can be globally blocked at this moment. Please see #Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding if your request involves an account.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You know the IP address(es) you wish to have globally blocked or unblocked.
  2. For blocks, the global blocking criteria are met.
  3. For unblocks, your request addresses the original reason for blocking the IP, if any.
When requesting that your IP be unblocked, note that stewards need to know your IP address to even consider a request.
To find your IP, please visit http://www.whatismyip.com/
You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on IRC or by email.

unblock 193.206.126.34

Status:    Not done

Again I request unblock of IP 193.206.126.34 because it's part of 50 computers in a national library in Italy where thousands different persons connect every day: 1 year global block is by user:M7 for insults but from solo guy in single language. I would like edit for support your project but it's impossible because this IP is static in all computers here in national library; evidence: see http://toolserver.org/~chm/whois.php?ip=193.206.126.34

To all admins I assert: I am not Italian but I am Croat and my name is Milan! You check: http://toolserver.org/~luxo/contributions/contributions.php?user=193.206.126.34 all edits from IP are valid and no vandalism! Evidence examples: 1 and 2 Admins M7 and Vituzzu where found insults? They can block IP in site of insults but 1 year global block is absurd and punitive for thousands different persons who connect in a national library free open for people's use! Consider this point: why punish guys who simple want to edit and develop wikipedia like as me?

You vandalised pt.wiki, it.wiki, en.wiki and simple.wiki (here some sockpuppet of yours): aren't these cross-wiki vandalisms?. Please don't lie you're italian but even if you were croatian you'd be just a troll. Thousands of users? It seems that just two people are using this ip, you and sometime (really rarely) another non-vandal one, please stop lying. --Vituzzu 14:18, 26 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

first of all you don't know me because I am an old editor since 2002 in several languages: sure I am older editor than you are! Do you understand? You must respect my effort and I don't tolerate your insults and personal attacks:

  • lier
  • vandal
  • troll
  • personator

when, why, where, who? You have no evidence for these insults against me! Do you met me in a place of this planet? And when, why, where, who? Do you watch me on your computer? But who are you: Supreme Court? Refrain to insult unknown guy! I usually edit unlogged by different computers. As well users Sir Floyd and Luigi28/Presbite are not sockpuppet!

I think you've made your point now. Please wait for a steward to look into this case. Thank you. Wutsje 15:11, 26 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
That's clear, in fact Presbite is free to help the growth of it.wiki. Dai hai ammesso tutto qui, non serve continuare a mentire. --Vituzzu 15:13, 26 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

this section is in English: use this language! I started over 1.000 new articles in six languages: Vituzzu you did many articles start? Who is Filipponio: your brother?

Evidence of disruption from this IP has already been provided, other findings are CU related and can be seen in part on SP lists and common interests for IVO/PIO/Tamburellista/Darius etc. --M/ 15:36, 26 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Six languages? I can rember just three (pretending to belive you're croatian), any reference for your words? Filipponio is a sock of yours. Now that your lies have been exposed as such, I (or we) can safely stop here, unless we are willing to waste time and space in order to expose a troll as such, as well. --Vituzzu 15:44, 26 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

I don't understand: Nick1915 are you responsable? It's impossible discuss with M7 and Vituzzu: they are like as a wall probably because they were insulted by an Italian user but global block by M7 is against all rules of this project! My question is: were insults in Portuguese section? If it's so, you can block this IP only in Portuguese section because sure IVO/PIO/Tamburellista/Darius/etc. never will edit in Croat or Chinese language but in this national library there are also Chinese and Croat guys like as me too! Global block by M7 is against growth of wikipedia: in this national library we are 30 guys who want to collaborate for this project! If you persist in this nonsense block, we 30 guys will edit a sort of petion in 30 different languages. I usually edit in these languages: Croat, Serb-Croat, Simple Eng., English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French--Milan7 14:30, 1 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Really strange things happen at a library in Bari (yes, Bari). 30 different people willing to *edit* Wikimedia projects in 30 different languages! Somehow, that's always the same attitude shown here, with similar lexicon. Maybe that's just the same one person? --M/ 14:49, 1 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

your link is evidence of situation in Bari: Bravo! The point is not if I and linked editor are solo guy but: I and IVO/PIO/Tamburellista/Darius/etc. are different persons!

  • @Stewards, in this case CU is total unreliable because we are 30 guys with same IP!

Block IP 71.51.79.126

Please see this edits. I think it is crosswiki spam. Vasiľ 21:33, 16 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Not done All spam was done within 15 minutes. If the spammers comes back, we can see whether blocking is an option, but for now I don't want to risk blocking what could be a dynamic ip, an internet connection that they used just once or somesuch. - Andre Engels 07:26, 17 March 2010 (UTC)Reply


Unblock User:samwaltz

I am a formerly active editor of the English Wikipedia. I am currently living in the Empty Quarter - and, needless to say, I want to get more involved in Wikipedia again (because, yes, there's just as much social life here as the name suggests). However, the problem I have encountered is that there has been so much vandalism from this IP range that there has been a general block implemented. I am unable to start new articles. I can, however, still make edits. Will someone please fix this. 195.229.235.39 19:03, 20 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Erk. To make matters more complicated, I'm being automatically logged off. Some of the changes I've been prevented from making have happened while not logged in. *shrug* I'll check things out from my side. Samwaltz 19:12, 20 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Block my bot

Hello,

I thinked I could run my global bot with cosmetic changes activated, but it seem I was wrong.

Unfortunatly I can't access the bot computer before this evening. To stop it, can you please block HerculeBot for 10 hours.

Sorry for my mistake.

Regards

--Hercule 10:10, 22 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks --Hercule 10:21, 22 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
It's correct now, the bot can be unlock.
Thanks for all, and sorry for the trouble
--Hercule 19:50, 22 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
