<div style="border-top: 1px solid #AAA; clear: both;">Wikipedia tries to be open, but we sometimes must [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|block]] [[IP address]]es to prevent editing by abusers, vandals, or block evaders. <span style="color:blue;">'''These blocks can affect users who have done nothing wrong. If you are a legitimate user, follow the instructions below to edit despite the block'''</span>. Users who are the intended target of a range block may still [[Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks|appeal the block]].

{{strong|IP users (without an account):|style=color: #006400;}} If you do not have an account and wish to bypass this block, [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|an account can be created]] to allow you to edit. In general, these blocks only prevent users who are not logged in from editing; once you are logged in, the block will no longer affect you in any way. ''To request an account, simply '''[[Wikipedia:Request an account|click here]]''' and follow the directions provided on the page''. It is important that you '''use an e-mail address issued to you by your ISP, school, or organisation''', so we may verify that you are a legitimate user. When filling out the account request form, please refer to this block in the "comments" input field. If you've been instructed to request an account via email, please refer to this block in your message.

If you are unable to edit while logged in, you may request [[Wikipedia:IP block exemption|IP block exemption]] to bypass blocks unconnected with you that affect your editing.
