Request reason:

Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 88.98.86.128. This is a residential broadband IP address used by Zen Internet in the UK. Error message: You are currently unable to edit Wikipedia. You are still able to view pages, but you are not currently able to edit, move, or create them. Editing from 89.238.166.0/23 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Mike V‬ for the following reason(s): 88.98.86.128 (talk) 12:03, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The IP range you give is very different from the one you are posting under, and since that range is blocked as a webhost, that would suggest that you are using a VPN or proxy; you will need to turn it off and clear your browser's cache if you want to edit. 331dot (talk) 12:18, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) So, looking at the IP from your block message, this IP is not inside the range 89.238.166.0/23. That range is owned by M247, a cloud services / hosting provider.

The most likely cause for this is attempting to edit via an open proxy, VPN, or other anonymizing service. If you are still running into this specific block with your VPN off, you may need to clear your cache / cookies. SQL ^{Query me!} 12:20, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add that if you don't wish to reveal your IP address, you should create an account, which hides your IP from the general public. 331dot (talk) 12:23, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Request reason:

Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 88.98.86.128. This is a residential broadband IP address used by Zen Internet in the UK. Error message: You are currently unable to edit Wikipedia. You are still able to view pages, but you are not currently able to edit, move, or create them. Editing from 89.238.166.0/23 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Mike V‬ for the following reason(s): I know it says that my IP address is not in that block, but that's the error message I am getting. Obviously there is some kind of fault here. I'm not using a VPN, I disconnected specifically to try to edit Wikipedia. This is the IP address of my internet connection, I verified it's what the router was handed by the ISP. Something is screwed up on your end. If it's a bug and I should escalate it please let me know where. 88.98.86.128 (talk) 18:54, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
