Your recent editing history at Emirate of Granada shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editingespecially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warringeven if you do not violate the three-revert ruleshould your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

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 resolve this:

  • Turn off VPNs, proxies, or tools such as iCloud Private Relay (for Apple users) or Microsoft Edge Secure Network. This is the most frequent reason that users encounter this block.
  • Try a different network connection. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or use a home network instead of a public or work connection.
  • Whitelist Wikipedia. You may be able to whitelist Wikipedia from your VPN service so that connections to Wikipedia aren't tunneled through the VPN. Instructions for whitelisting Wikipedia on iCloud Private Relay can be found here.
  • Still blocked? If you believe that you are not running an anonymizing proxy or Tor, you should consider checking your network configuration to verify that this is actually the case. Network configurations can be changed without your knowledge, sometimes due to 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 applied because of the configuration of your network or internet connection. They are not applied as a result of your actions, nor are they applied in order to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. We always appreciate good-faith contributors to this project, and we want to help you with being able to edit Wikipedia again.

How to appeal if you are confident that your network connection does not use an open proxy or VPN service:
If you are confident that you are not connecting through an open proxy, web host, VPN service, or using Tor, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by an open proxy 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 an open proxy provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you are certain that your IP address is in fact not an open proxy provider.
Information for administrators:
Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using open proxies, web hosts, VPN services, or using Tor in very exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to grant the IP block exemption user right, a CheckUser must take a look at the account first. 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.
