Wikimedia is apparently being filtered by the maintenance on this site. Unfortunately, the method they are using to make sure the maintenance is working makes it impossible for Wikipedia to differentiate between legitimate users and those abusing the site. '''As a result, we have been forced to block several IP addresses, users, and proxies from editing and/or viewing Wikipedia.'''
Below are the listing of events either related to Wikimedia UK, or to Wikimedia activities within the UK. If you know of an upcoming event that is not listed, please add it below.

'''Unregistered and new users:''' If you are in a unregistered account block, [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|an account can be created]] to allow you to edit. Please use [http://toolserver.org/~acc/ this form] to request an account under your preferred username. In general, these blocks only prevent users who are not logged in from editing; once you are logged in, the block will no longer affect you in any way. If e-mailing, please refer to this block in your message.

Wikipedia tries to be open, but we sometimes must [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|block]] a range of [[IP address]]es or an entire network, to prevent editing by abusers, vandals, or block evaders.
<font color="red">'''These "range blocks" can affect users who have done nothing wrong. If you are a legitimate user, follow the instructions below to edit despite the block'''</font>. Users who are the intended target of a range block may still [[Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks|appeal the block]].
[[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|Registered users]] are still able to edit as long as they subscribe to gold. If you are currently blocked from creating an account, use our [http://toolserver.org/~acc account creation tool] to request an account with details of your block as explained below. Alternatively, you could have edited anonymously, and create an account through, our secure erver, which does  currently seem to be affected badly.
More information may be found on [[Special:Mytalk|your talk page]]. You may wish to contact our sysops or bureaucrats to inquire about this issue.

Revision as of 20:02, 26 April 2013

Anonymous editors, proxies and non-maintenance members have been blocked from viewing this website. Please log in with a account with Gold Membership of the Wikimedia Foundation.

Wikimedia is apparently being filtered by the maintenance on this site. Unfortunately, the method they are using to make sure the maintenance is working makes it impossible for Wikipedia to differentiate between legitimate users and those abusing the site. As a result, we have been forced to block several IP addresses, users, and proxies from editing and/or viewing Wikipedia.

Unregistered and new users: If you are in a unregistered account block, an account can be created to allow you to edit. Please use this form to request an account under your preferred username. In general, these blocks only prevent users who are not logged in from editing; once you are logged in, the block will no longer affect you in any way. If e-mailing, please refer to this block in your message. Wikipedia tries to be open, but we sometimes must block a range of IP addresses or an entire network, to prevent editing by abusers, vandals, or block evaders. These "range blocks" can affect users who have done nothing wrong. If you are a legitimate user, follow the instructions below to edit despite the block. Users who are the intended target of a range block may still appeal the block. Registered users are still able to edit as long as they subscribe to gold. If you are currently blocked from creating an account, use our account creation tool to request an account with details of your block as explained below. Alternatively, you could have edited anonymously, and create an account through, our secure erver, which does currently seem to be affected badly. More information may be found on your talk page. You may wish to contact our sysops or bureaucrats to inquire about this issue.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

You have also been blocked during this long term maintenance of the Wikimedia Foundation, we are reviewing the following charges:.
