School computers being blocked

Hi Smartone027,

Thanks for your message and I apologise if you have been affected by blocks made to your school computers. What probably happened was that there was persistent vandalism coming from these computers and I temporary blocked them to prevent further vandalism from occurring. However, please note that if you are only trying to get information from Wikipedia, the blocks only prevent you from editing Wikipedia, not from reading it. What might have happened is that you clicked on a redlink to a non-existent article, which brings up a block message.

Could you copy and paste the exact block message you are getting when you try to edit Wikipedia from your school computers and I will look into the case for you. If your school doesn't have a long history of persistent vandalism, or the block has been in place for a long time, I may remove the block so your school computers are no longer affected.

Best wishes,
