This category allows administrators to quickly locate current requests for unblock from blocked users; these requests may come from users if they are suffering from collateral damage caused by an unrelated block, or from users who would like a block removed or reduced. Users can add themselves to this category by placing the {{unblock}} template on their user talk page, which they can usually edit while blocked.

Per the blocking policy and block appeals guidelines, unless exceptional or expedient circumstances apply, administrators should not unblock a user without prior discussion with the blocking admin, nor should they review an unblock request where they have a conflict of interest, whether by having set the original block or by participating in disputes relating to it. In general, an unblock request should be removed and replaced with an appropriate response, when unblocking or reviewing a block.
The list of pages in this category are also on a bot-generated list at User:Cyde/List of requests for unblock.
