Request reason:

Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. I mean, this IS a webhost, but it's not the web servers. I work at a webhost. This is just our VPN. Ipstenu (talkcontribs) 22:12, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

Decline reason:

VPNs are considered a form of anonymizing proxy and are blocked on sight. You'll need to find another way to connect to the internet to edit Wikipedia. Huon (talk) 22:24, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment.
