Block message:

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be an open or anonymizing proxy. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Blocking administrator: ProcseeBot (talk • blocks)

Decline reason: Sorry; that IP is known to be a SOCKS proxy. You may wish to request an IP block exemption if for some reason it is necessary for you to edit through a proxy. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇} 17:46, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Further information (please read): The block message appearing when I try to edit a page says that "editing from 186.204.109.32 has been blocked (disabled) by ProcseeBot" and the reason provided was "because it is believed to be an open or anonymizing proxy". I do not understand what is this. There's no way to follow these instructions since there are no sections named "What do I do know?" or "IP blocked?". This is the third time I try to contact an admin to help me with this problem. The two previous ones asked a few questions, which I answered, but then they apparently just ignored me. I have no idea about why I've been autoblocked. - Alumnum (talk) 03:32, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You are not autoblocked. The IP you are using is directly blocked for being WP:open proxy (log). Using open proxies for anonymity is not allowed (see: WP:NOP) except is some special cases. You should simply stop using proxies unless you have some spacial need for it. Vanjagenije (talk) 10:21, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism of the Talmud[edit]

Hi, there's no reason why you should have been aware, but the contents of this article were extensively discussed in an arbitration case years and years ago, following which it was switched to a redirect. Please do not revert the recent action taken on this page to return it to being a redirect. If you disagree with it, please discuss it at the article talk page. Thanks. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 15:50, 28 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

All right. But where are those discussions located? - Alumnum (talk) 16:57, 28 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 30[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of social nudity places in South America, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Entre Rios. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of AdNauseam[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on AdNauseam requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
