Hello, I'm Rusty Cat. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Apkallu—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Rusty 🐈 15:16, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm StefenTower. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to John Harwood (journalist) seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. It appears you are injecting your personal opinion when the content is supposed to be based on what reliable sources say.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Fort Sheridan, Illinois, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Picard's Facepalm • ^{Made It So} _Engage! • 21:44, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cannolis. I noticed that you recently removed content from Black panther without adequately explaining why.

Yes, this is a shared IP address belonging to the public computers at the Brooklyn Public Library. Please do not send anymore messages to this IP address. Thank you, 208.87.239.201 (talk) 18:55, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

November 2024

Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Harley Quinn (TV series), please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Please stop adding categories for memes (e.g., Category:Internet memes or Category:Film and television memes) to articles that are not about memes but works that may have led to memes (e.g., articles about films or TV shows) (although in this and other instances there wasn't even anything about a meme in the article; but even if there is something about a meme in the article do not add those categories unless the article itself is about a particular meme), thank you!

Okay. I will explain next time. Can I please revert the changes. I read a history book and realized the other version was more accurate. 208.87.239.201 (talk) 19:31, 24 August 2025 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Why you are seeing this message: Your current IP address is blocked from editing Wikipedia because it appears to belong to a VPN or proxy service.

These types of services are commonly used for abusive editing and circumventing Wikipedia policies, so Wikipedia blocks them as a preventive measure — even if you personally haven't done anything wrong.

How to fix it:

• Turn off VPNs, proxies, or tools like iCloud Private Relay (for Apple users) or Microsoft Edge Secure Network. This is the most frequent reason users encounter this block.
• Try a different connection. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or use a home network instead of a public or work one.
• Whitelist Wikipedia. You may be able to whitelist Wikipedia from your VPN so that connections to Wikipedia aren't through a VPN service. See whitelisting instructions for iCloud Private Relay
• Still blocked? If you believe you are not running an anonymizing proxy or Tor, consider double checking your configuration. Sometimes the configuration for your network is changed without your knowledge, for instance by malware. In truly exceptional circumstances, you may request IP block exemption. Approval is limited and based on specific criteria, and you should only request it if you have no other way to edit Wikipedia.

Note: These blocks are about the type of internet connection, not your actions. We appreciate good-faith contributors and want to help you get editing again.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:

If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Information for administrators:

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.
