194.230.159.246 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
This is the IP of a mobile internet network for Mobile Internet with many users who use this network. Block message says it was for dopenguins. However, this IP changes often, so the same IP is not and will not be used by dopenguins again. This is my second IP from this provider that has the same block message and now I cannot wikipedia. A 3 month range block on such a network with many users is way too much. @Djsasso: 194.230.159.246 (talk) 02:47, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
Decline reason:
If you are not the person the block was meant to stop, you are welcome to request creation of an account. Huon (talk) 02:56, 5 January 2018 (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.
- Only anonymous accounts are blocked. You can log into your account and you will not be affected. Going back many months the only editor from this entire range is the one targeted so if it is used by many people, it is not used by them to edit Wikipedia. -DJSasso (talk) 02:53, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
- It is a network with many users of the network. Maybe most users edit the German wikipedia, this is not in a an English speaking country, but I want to edit English wikipeida and I don't have an account on the English wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.230.159.246 (talk • contribs)
- As mentioned by Huon. If you are not Dopenguins then you may request an account at WP:ACC. -DJSasso (talk) 03:00, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
- Ok, so googling I found this page [1]
- Use careful judgement and make them as brief as possible; they can affect up to 65,536 IPv4 addresses or 649,037,107,316,853,453,566,312,041,152,512 (~6.49×1032) IPv6 addresses each, potentially affecting millions of users.
- If you propose to block a significant range, or for a significant time, consider asking a user with checkuser access to check for collateral damage – that is, for the presence of other users who may be unintentionally affected by the range block. Alternately, if you are unsure whether or not disruptive edits from a specific range can be matched to a single user, you can post a request at sock puppet investigations where an administrator or a checkuser will attempt to match users with IP addresses.

- Since this is an anonymous only block it doesn't require a CU because any admin can see the anonymous users on a range. As I mentioned above, there haven't been edits from the range in quite some time that were not the editor in question so it is low on collateral damage. And it is a very small range block only 256 addresses. -DJSasso (talk) 03:16, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
- Ok, I am seeing the IP edits too here [2]
- However, I don't see the same conclusion. Many edits have not been reverted, therefore I can reasonably assume that they are not sock edits. There were a lot of sock edits on 1st and 2nd Jan from 3 IPs, but previously there are also a lot of unrelated edits (all those that have not been reverted, which are many).
- Since this is a mobile IP and is going to affect many innnocent users, is it possible to reduce the block time?
![]() | 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. |
