Request reason:

Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 208.87.236.201. Brookswriter (talk) 05:22, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

That IP is indeed a webhost or proxy server. You will have to use other means to edit. 331dot (talk) 11:02, 12 January 2020 (UTC)


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:

I'm appealing the block. I will henceforth use a different computer to make edits. The new IP address is 50.53.241.78. Hopefully that meets the policies? If not, I could use suggestions because I don't understand why Wikipedia thinks I'm a Web host or proxy server; I'm just using regular Windows machines. Brookswriter (talk) 03:28, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

Accept reason:

You should be able to edit now. If you can't, file another unblock request, and I'll do what I can. You were probably using some kind of web filtering service earlier. Those are sometimes blocked on Wikipedia as proxies. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:54, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

That IP address is not blocked. Try editing now. MER-C 06:08, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Leon & Malia (March 2)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Sulfurboy was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Need to see more coverage of the duo than just one local story.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
