Request reason:
Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. I am using one of the major ISPs in the U.S. Does Misplaced Pages block whole ISPs? I switched my provider a few months ago and ever since I have been effectively banned from editing Misplaced Pages. I take great pleasure in editing grammar, syntax and puncuation in whatever Misplaced Pages article I come across. Occasionally I create but usually I add to new articles. Knowledge should be free (and free of typos and poor grammar). So...As I understand this problem, I am effectively being discriminated against because someone doesn't like the color of my IP address. How appropriate that I would discover this discrimination while trying to edit the "Jim Crow" article.XenoRasta (talk) 21:14, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Your IP address was blocked because it acted as a proxy server. PhilKnight (talk) 21:38, 17 January 2015 (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.
{{unblock reviewed|reason=Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. So it's "oh well, potential editor?" I have no other option than to use the IP I was given by my ISP. I am not using a proxy. I am not running Windows, but rather Linux. So the chances that my PC is infected is less probable. According to Whatismyip.com, I am not using a proxy. I have called my ISP and they state that my IP is dynamic and will change randomly. However, in practice my IP never changes. Even after I reboot the modem. Hell, I left th modem off last week for over 24 hours and my IP was still unchanged. Sounds dynamic, huh? Do you have suggestions that might help me to fix this problem? I have already read all of the IP blocking related articles on Misplaced Pages and have attempted several fixes. The rest of the options do not apply to my situation. Please help! I can no longer edit articles. XenoRasta
{{unblock reviewed|reason=Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy.I have tried several IP lookup services on the web. All of them show my correct location and that no proxies are being used. What does Misplaced Pages have that goes above and beyond these IP lookup sites? Of the several that I tried, one stated that I was on a blaclist. The rest did not. No one has effectively and definitively explained why I cannot edit Misplaced Pages. Claims that I am using a proxy have been dispelled. Why can I not edit? XenoRasta

Hello, I'm Elizium23. I noticed that you made a change to an article, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
