Line 111: Thanks in advance! [[User:Sir Kenneth Kho\|Sir Kenneth Kho]] ([[User talk:Sir Kenneth Kho\|talk]]) 21:14, 10 July 2024 (UTC) :@[[User:Sir Kenneth Kho\|Sir Kenneth Kho]]: Thanks for taking the time to write in. I'm sorry about the situation you found yourself in. In this particular case, I would note that the IP range is also [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=gblblock&page=User:107.181.176.0%2F20 blocked globally], which means that even without any action on the English Wikipedia side, it would still be blocked. {{pb}}It's a difficult balance -- we can't allow known webhost or proxy IP ranges to have unrestricted edit access to Wikipedia because of the degree of abuse we see from those ranges. However, I know that there's often a lot of collateral damage that comes from those decisions. Ultimately, in the longer run, we probably need to get smarter about risk mitigation on Wikipedia — our current tools were created back in the early 2000s and broadly haven't been updated much since then.
