This page in a nutshell: This page explains the problems and solutions related to editing using Google Web Accelerator. |
When you access Wikipedia using Google Web Accelerator, the connection is routed through one of a small pool of proxy servers set up by Google. Because of persistent abuse and vandalism by some users, these proxy servers are now being indefinitely blocked from editing Wikipedia. Other innocent users may also end up "automatically blocked" as "collateral damage". This document attempts to explain why this happens and what you can do to avoid it.
