Request reason:

I am from China Mainland and I must use VPN to edit Wikipedia because of the GFW. I have already got the zhwiki'IPBE and GBIPBE. But I still can't edit enwiki, I need IPBE on enwiki. I'm really looking forward to you reply. Because of my VPN tool, my IP address change frequently. Sometimes I could edit, but most time I can't. I need IPBE, and I promise to protect Wikipedia instead of damaging it. Thank you very much. $\sideset {_{R}^{u}}{_{u}^{y}}\prod _{\clubsuit }^{i}$ ${}_{S}^{h}\!\Omega _{n}^{e}$ 06:24, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

You've demonstrated you have the ability to edit Wikipedia without IPBE. Yamla (talk) 10:31, 13 April 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.

Additional discussion

Sorry, I must say that my VPN is decentralization. So the IP addresses change frequently. When I want to edit, IP may be blocked. IP changes even I was editing. It means that I can't post after the article is written and it's really a bad experience. Sometimes I can but other time I can't. So I need IPBE. Thank you very much.
It is useful for me, and I promise not to abuse any power. I just want to make edit more convenient. My account never being blocked and you can check it out. So please trust me.
All the best. --$\sideset {_{R}^{u}}{_{u}^{y}}\prod _{\clubsuit }^{i}$ ${}_{S}^{h}\!\Omega _{n}^{e}$ 11:28, 13 April 2020 (UTC)}}

Until now I still can't edit when I use my phone. Even while using the computer I also have to change my IP address and, it can fail sometimes. So please give me the permission. I will appreciate it.--$\sideset {_{R}^{u}}{_{u}^{y}}\prod _{\clubsuit }^{i}$ ${}_{S}^{h}\!\Omega _{n}^{e}$ 22:04, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

I am not an admin, but I think the instructions at Wikipedia:IP block exemption state that if you need to bypass a block on a VPN, you need to file a request either by emailing the checkuser team or by submitting a request to WP:UTRS. Aasim 04:05, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

@Awesome Aasim: Thanks. But I have sent two mails to checkuser-en-wp@wikipedia.org and had no reply. I consulted other wikipedians on zhwiki who got IPBE on enwiki, and most of them successed with one mail. I don't know why it is so difficult to me. Thank you very much for your reply. --$\sideset {_{R}^{u}}{_{u}^{y}}\prod _{\clubsuit }^{i}$ ${}_{S}^{h}\!\Omega _{n}^{e}$ 04:15, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Patience is key :) Aasim 04:21, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

I have disabled your unblock request, as that isn't the right way to request IPBE (and you have also followed the directions correctly). I looked at the checkuser-en-wp queue, and I can see your emails in there. I'm going to try to go thru as many of the requests in the queue as I can a little later tonight (in the order received), but I can't promise I can get to all of them today. SQL^{Query me!} 20:57, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Got it. Thank you very much. ❤️:)--$\sideset {_{R}^{u}}{_{u}^{y}}\prod _{\clubsuit }^{i}$ ${}_{S}^{h}\!\Omega _{n}^{e}$ 23:05, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Successful request

• Noted, and addressed. Per my message on SQL's talk page, I've granted for 6 months as you're a new user; you can request an extension if still required at that point. Risker (talk) 04:33, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 08:45, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Problems

• Commons will be on read-only for a few minutes on 12 May. This will happen around 05:00 UTC. This is for database maintenance. [2]

Tech News: 2020-21

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• If you forget your password you can ask for a new one to be sent to your email address. You need to know your email address or your username. You can choose that you need to enter both your email address and your username. This is a preference. This is to get fewer password reset emails someone else asked for. This is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. [6][7]

Problems

• There is a bug that creates problems for iPhone users with iOS 13 and Safari. If you use an iPhone to read or edit Wikipedia and see bugs on the mobile site you can report them. [8]
• Several wikis including Wikidata will be on read-only for a few minutes on 19 May. This will happen around 05:00 UTC. English Wikipedia will be on read-only for a few minutes on 21 May 05:00 UTC. This is for database maintenance. [9][10]

Changes later this week

• The Wikipedia app for Android can let users add depicts on Commons. The beta version used computer-aided tagging. This was removed to get more specific depicts. [11]
• There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Future changes

• Graphs will be rendered in the reader's browser. This will use Javascript. Graphs will hopefully work better for everyone who uses Javascript. It will not work for users who don't use Javascript. This will not affect diagrams in image files. [12]
• Some CSS for the skins has been simplified. This affects div#p-personal, div#p-navigation, div#p-interaction, div#p-tb, div#p-lang, div#p-namespaces, div#p-variants and div#footer. They will have to remove div. You will have to update your gadgets, scripts or user styles. This is so we can use HTML5. [13]
• Some CSS for the Vector skin has been changed. This affects #p-variants, #p-namespaces, #p-personal, #p-views and #p-cactions. They can no longer use > ul. You might need to update your gadgets, scripts or user styles. See how.
