Wikipedia Request An Account Wizard
IP address blocks
Don't worry! You can still create an account for yourself in most of these situations!

From time to time, specific networks and network connections must be prevented from creating accounts on Wikipedia. Depending on the circumstances of the block, you still may be able to create an account. To avoid having to request an account and wait in line, please review the information below before requesting an account using the ACC process.

Details and information on different errors regarding IP or network restrictions:
I am the block target
If you have edited Wikipedia before and believe that the block is a result of your edits or actions, you may not create an account or request that an account be created for you. Instead, you should appeal your block. Your IP talk page may contain more information about the block.
My School, Library, or Organization is blocked
Schools, libraries, organizations, public locations, and other locations where multiple people are able to access the internet using the same connection will sometimes have to be blocked because of persistent vandalism or abuse by other users. If the block does not relate to your actions, try using a non-shared internet connection (such as your home internet, or your mobile device's LTE, 5G, or data service) to create an account for yourself.[notes 1][notes 2]
I'm using a proxy, VPN, or Tor
To prevent abuse, editors connecting via a proxy, VPN, or Tor exit node are not permitted to edit pages or create accounts without special permission. Some browsers, such as Opera Mini, may automatically connect via a proxy. Before requesting an account, please try creating an account from another browser or with your proxy turned off. You however may request an account if you can not access Wikipedia without a proxy (e.g. because of internet censorship).

If none of these circumstances apply to you, you may request an account.

  1. ^ If the block is a result of your edits or actions, you cannot request an account using the this process. Blocks on Wikipedia apply to the person, not to the network or the account that it was applied to. Therefore, you must appeal your block or let the block expire first. It is against Wikipedia policy to evade, circumvent, or otherwise bypass your block, and violation of this policy will result in longer blocks and stricter sanctions.
  2. ^ It is highly recommended that you only connect to WiFi networks and access points that you fully know and trust to be safe and secure. Never attempt to use a public WiFi connection if you're not sure of its security or trust level.
