If you are using an open proxy or VPN service, you will need to disable it or turn it off 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, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can email staff@testwiki.wiki.
More rarely, your network equipment or that of your service provider may be misconfigured or compromised by malicious software (such as a virus). For more information, see the WikiProject on Open Proxies.
