Request reason:

I believe that my IP address has been incorrectly identified as an open proxy. REAN (talk) 16:01, 8 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

We can't unblock your IP address unless we know what IP address it is. Please make a new unblock request giving us that information. I suggest carefully reading the notice you see when you try to edit, which will probably tell you what you need to tell us. JamesBWatson (talk) 16:13, 8 August 2012 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

My IP 142.32.208.226 is caught in an open proxy block

Decline reason:

I checked the logs, and I do not see an active autoblock on this account. Are you sure that's the IP that the error message told you to report? —C.Fred (talk) 23:51, 22 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I believe that my IP address has been incorrectly identified as an open proxy. This is the exact error message I get. You are currently unable to edit Wikipedia. You are still able to view pages, but you are not currently able to edit, move, or create them. Editing from 142.32.208.226 has been blocked (disabled) by Courcelles for the following reason(s): The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be an open proxy. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you believe you are not running an open proxy, the most likely cause is that another customer from your ISP who was previously assigned this IP address was running an open proxy. If this is the case, please request to be unblocked using the unblock template, or request administrator attention using admin and indicate you are caught by an open proxy block. More rarely, your network equipment or that of your service provider may be misconfigured or compromised by malicious software (such as a virus). In some cases, this can be remedied by logging into the secure server. For more information, see the Wikiproject on Open Proxies and Wikipedia:Open proxies. This block has been set to expire: 21:21, 29 May 2013. Even if blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page and email other editors and administrators.

Accept reason:

While the IP was very likely an open proxy in the past, the proxy has either been taken down or moved to a new IP. In any event, your IP should now be unblocked. Reaper Eternal (talk) 16:59, 29 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
