The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be an open or anonymizing proxy, such as a VPN service. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Test Wiki.

If you are using an open proxy or VPN service, you will need to disable it or log in to an existing account in order to edit Test Wiki.

If you believe you are not using an anonymizing proxy, the most likely cause is that another customer using your IP address who was previously assigned this IP address was running an open proxy. You may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: I am not using a proxy, or I have a valid reason to use one. My IP address is (your IP address). I should be unblocked because (Your reason here). Your IP address can be determined using whatismyip.com. Alternatively, you can email staff@testwiki.wiki to keep your IP address private.
