Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. I am currently using an internet service provider (ISP) from an African country. The internet infrastructure in this country differs significantly from that of my home country. An IP block exemption would be the most effective solution. Unfortunately, the exemption I previously had expired last week. Despite its expiration, I was able to edit Wikipedia without any interruptions until my IP address was caught by an open block today. It's important to note that I am not utilizing any proxy or VPN during my editing sessions. The current block is set to expire in approximately two weeks. Thank you.

Accept reason:

I've renewed WP:IPBE for another year. Spicy (talk) 10:15, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to join the Fifteen Year Society[edit]

Dear Cyfraw,

I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Fifteen Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for fifteen years or more.

Best regards, Chris Troutman (talk) 16:26, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I recognize now that you registered your account in 2009 but did not start editing until 2010, 14 years ago. Please consider this invitation early in arrival. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:29, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem @Chris troutman, I know I didn't start my account a year later. But my editing anniversary will be in March 2025, just a year's time.--cyrfaw (talk)
