Status: Not done
Requesting for unlock KnowlG. Block him on this wiki. --Kungfu2187 01:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Not done. Global blocks don't affect meta, and the IP has only made one edit here. If they cause problems, the address can be blocked locally. Jafeluv 08:58, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Global block for 193.57.201.2

Inserted the same wrong information in several wikies many times. --β16 - (talk) 12:34, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Global block/unblock for 80.58.205.107

Status: Done

I've been blocked for Open Proxy, but my IP is from Telefónica España, so it isn't an Open Proxy. -- TheMrJohannesburg · Parlem-ne! ;)/Talk out! ;) 20:47, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Comment Comment The IP adress is not blocked globally afaik, see here. Although it is blocked locally on some wikis (ca-wiki, commons, es-wiki...[1]) Trijnstel 21:30, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
Unblock requested @eswiki and unblocked at commons. I do not know what the procedure is to request an unblock there.
This is a proxy caché service that hundreds of users use to access the Internet. Telefónica is the biggest ISP in the Kingdom of Spain.
-- Dferg ☎ talk 05:05, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Please, unblock me at wiki-ca... :( -- TheMrJohannesburg · Parlem-ne! ;)/Talk out! ;) 10:49, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Request for Global unblock from Casperruegg

Status: Done

The IP I am using now is a School IP, whick gets a lot of vandalism. It is not, however, an Open Proxy. I am requesting a global unblock so I can edit with my account at school Casperruegg 08:25, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Done. See usertalk page. -- Dferg ☎ talk 19:17, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Global unblock for Holraven

Status: Done

Our company is using Symantec.Cloud. This is not an Open Proxy, but a subscription service aimed at corporations.

I does not appear to be an open proxy. Ruslik 18:14, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
Unblocked. See request below. -- Dferg ☎ talk 18:55, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Global unblock for MessageLabs proxies

Status: Done

Request for lifting of the global block on these IPs (and any similar ones you can find). MessageLabs proxies are not open proxies by any usual definition. Please don't rely on nmap when checking. See also request immediately above. Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 18:46, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Done Ruslik 19:10, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Global unlock for BBGOnline

Status: Not done

i cannot edit as i am blocked, it says its a proxy error. i have no idea why this has happened but need to be unblocked as i need to edit our company wikipedia page.help, thanks

The "i need to edit our company wikipedia page" is why you are locked. Promotional usernames are not allowed on Wikimedia. Ajraddatz (Talk) 14:09, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
As the matter of fact the account is not locked. Nor does it seem to be blocked anywhere. This is probably related to an IP block. Jafeluv 18:58, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Personal reasons... thanks for all :-)

Also, if someone can: remove me from Checkuser/Steward (削除) mailing list (削除ここまで), wiki, and OTRS access ---- Màñü飆15 talk [es] 02:28, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

I've removed you from the wikis, can't do OTRS and won't lock you. Thanks for all your services around the wikiworld! -Barras 07:01, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Done, will arrange the rest. :( Matanya 07:03, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Cada día símplemente entiendo menos... Cuídate, -- Dferg ☎ talk 13:48, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Tampoco entiendo esta decisión. Muchísimas gracias por todo tu trabajo y tu ayuda, Manuel. Se te echará de menos on-wiki y en el IRC también. Mis mejores deseos y, aunque espero que vuelvas, te deseo lo mejor para el futuro. Sa vh ñ 14:03, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Take care Manuel. I hope you resolve your issues and come back some day. Thanks. Theo10011 14:10, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Maybe it's strange, but I'm a bit shocked. Why did you do this? Imo you were a great steward. Thanks for all and take care. Trijnstel 14:45, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Cuídate mucho Manu. Espero que no sea por asuntos graves. Si decides volver, ya sabes por dónde estamos. Un abrazo. Tirithel 18:33, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Global lock/unlock for KnowIG

Status: Not done

Nobody bothered last time I'm not going away or giving up. I never spammed across multiple wikis. I was persected by certain admins on wikipedia who refused to talk. Talk to me and unlock me now. --78.146.10.134 13:48, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Global unlock for KnowIG

Status: Not done

I have not engaged on cross wiki spam and frankly deserve to be unlocked. This is rediculous how can I appeal if I am locked from this page. I have never had a warning I have never had a message about this locking. This is silly, as I say I haven't spammed, --78.147.16.142 11:54, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Not done as per before. PeterSymonds (talk) 12:02, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Global lock for Pedophile duck

Status: Done

Non-acceptable username. Regards, Toto Azéro follow the guide ! 08:07, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Done fr33k man 20:50, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
I don't disagree with the action, but it's probably not necessary to bring every inappropriate enwiki username here unless they're actually creating accounts across multiple projects. After all, a lot of accounts are blocked for inappropriate usernames on enwiki every day and the cases that actually start registering the same username on other projects afterwards and need to be locked are a very small minority. Just my two cents... Jafeluv 21:19, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
You're probably right actually, but I saw no advantage to allowing the username to edit any WMF wiki. fr33k man 21:40, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
