Ask for help: editing via a proxy from China Mainland

Hello, I'm a Wikipedia user from China Mainland. According to Wikipedia policies, editing Wikipedia via a proxy is not allowed (See Wikipedia:Blocking_policy#Open_or_anonymous_proxies). But since China has a government-level censorship of Wikipedia, the only way to access Wikipedia is using a proxy/VPN. I request the permission to edit Wikipedia via a proxy/VPN.

According to a corresponding Wikipedia guideline Wikipedia:Open_proxies#Editors_who_need_to_use_proxies, I have tried mailing to a Checkuser, but up to now I haven't received a reply. If any admin sees this, is it OK to grant me the permission to edit Wikipedia via a proxy/VPN? Or what else can I do? Please help me, thanks a lot.

Tracked in ticket:2021121110001871, though I note that it was sent two days ago and processing IPBE requests sometimes takes a while. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 13:31, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
