This page hosts requests for global (un)blocks, (un)locks and hidings.

If you are here because you have been affected by a global block, please see Global blocks/FAQ for more information about global block and routes to appeal.

Note: (un)blocks apply to IP addresses or accounts; and (un)locks apply to global accounts.

Cross-wiki requests
Meta-Wiki requests


Requests for global (un)block

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 .
Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address or account is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses or accounts that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat instead of here so that they can be blocked locally.
Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP or account. Saying an IP or account is a long term abuser is not helpful, but saying "IP vandalizes at ban.wikipedia, no.wikipedia and vi.wikipedia" is. This is especially important for range blocks. If you do not provide enough details, your request might be declined.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You know the IP address(es) or accounts 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 or account, if any.

To make a request for the address(es) or account(s) to be blocked or unblocked

Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) or account(s) should be blocked/unblocked.
=== Global block/unblock for [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address or account|Some IP address or account]] ===
{{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template -->
* {{Luxotool|IP address/username}}
Description, evidence, diffs, etc. --~~~~
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 https://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 at: stewards@wikimedia.org

Global block for 223.140.132.100

Global unblock for 162.243.153.182

Status:    In progress

Billinghurst overzealously blocked this entire /16 because he found one open proxy. He does not respond to questions about this block, and deletes any messages about it within minutes of posting on his talk page. There is no legitimate reason to block any other addresses on this /16, and this particular IP address has been my own static IP address for over a year. --162.243.153.182 05:12, 20 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Let me start by stating I'm not a steward, neither is Billinghurst now. At the top of his talkpage a message says to direct your questions of global blocks to this page. It does not matter if you try to poke him anyway, as he can't do anything about it. About your address itself: its address and the range it lies in belongs to a hosting company called Digital Ocean. As far I know this provider has been abused by a lot of people, and thats also the reason why your range was blocked (and likley wont be unblocked per policy). The block should only affect anonymous users and people who have a account shouldn't be affected by it. If you have account you should login, and if you still have issues with an account you could try getting a global IP block exemption for it. If you still insist on editing anonymous, than its possible you might have to wait quite some time for that. --Wiki13 talk 08:30, 20 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Global unblock for 91.121.145.199

Status:    In progress

Hi, my IP has been blocked by User:zzuuzz. I am not sure whether I've just got hit by a ricochet (zzuuzz blocked the entire 91.121.144.0/20 range) or if the reason is that the address 91.121.145.199 indeed belongs to my private OpenVPN gateway. Your policy says that open proxies are not allowed, but this is somewhat different. My server acts as a gateway for a handful of friends only (for security reasons like connecting through unprotected wireless). I highly doubt any of them would participate in any kind of malicious activity against Wikipedia. And even if someone did, I'm always ready and willing to ban such person from using any of my on-line resources for the rest of his/her life. I've double-checked the logs to make sure my server wasn't compromised and I'm pretty confident that it does proxying, but it's definitely far from being open. I'd understand if you didn't care about such nuances and kept the block in place, but I'd like to ask you for lifting the ban anyways, I can assure you that no packet from 91.121.145.199 comes with evil intent. Thanks in advance, chase.

91.121.0.0/16 is blocked in English wikipedia and globally. I think you are talking about English wikipedia block, Please follow their procedures to get unblocked from English wikipedia. Regarding the global block, Seems the Ip 91.121.244.232 is spamming, so the range soft blocked, you should be able to edit with an account, please let us know if you need an account. Also you can email stewards-at-wikimedia.org with an official email address if you need the whole range block to be lifted.--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 04:29, 29 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Blocked account 208.98.237.125

Hi Billinghurst,

I have been trying to fix an issue that I have had with my Wikipedia account for awhile. First I was blocked on my account for something about having a promotional account so I tried to change my username thinking that was possibly the problem but I was still blocked. The message I got before said I was welcome to make an account for myself so I tried to make a new account and now I got a message saying you blocked my IP address and something about a spambot. Here is the message I got when I tried to make a new account:

"You do not have permission to create this user account, for the following reason:

Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis.

The block was made by Billinghurst (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is Cross-wiki spam: spambot: Calgary Adfarm Ticket#2015120910025961.

   Start of block: 11:35, 10 December 2015
   Expiry of block: 03:43, 7 November 2016

You can contact Billinghurst to discuss the block. You cannot use the "Email this user" feature unless a valid email address is specified in your account preferences and you have not been blocked from using it. Your current IP address is 208.98.237.125, and the blocked range is 208.98.224.0/19. Please include all above details in any queries you make."

Can you please clarify with me what is going on and tell me if there is anyway for me to fix this issue?

Thanks! — The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.98.237.125 (talk)

The IP address range is blocked, but you can still create an account then login to edit. QuiteUnusual (talk) 14:30, 15 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding

Be sure to follow the instructions below:
  • Your request might be rejected if it doesn't include the necessary information.
  • Warning! This page is publicly viewable. If the account name is grossly insulting or contains personal information please contact a steward privately in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards-oversight@wikimedia.org (direct wiki interface) but do not post it here. Thanks.
  • Warning! This is not the place to ask for locks based on your opinion that someone is disruptive. Global locks are used exclusively against vandalism and spam, not because of content disputes, not because you think that someone deserves to be globally blocked. In such cases, you should ask for local blocks at appropriate places.
  • If you are globally locked, you should appeal your lock to stewards-appeals@wikimedia.org.

Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward.

Instructions for making a request

Before requesting that a global account be (un)locked, please be sure that:

  1. You have evidence of cross-wiki disruption from the account(s).
  2. You can show that it is not feasible to use local-only blocks or other measures like page protection to combat the disruption.
  3. You have considered making the request in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect, especially for account names which will be hidden, or for urgent requests.
To make a request for an account to be locked or unlocked
Copy one of the codes below to the bottom of this section and explain why the account(s) should be locked/unlocked.
=== Global lock/unlock for Foo ===
