    The WikiProject on open proxies seeks to identify, verify and block open proxies and anonymity network exit nodes. To prevent abuse or vandalism, only proxy checks by verified users will be accepted. All users are welcome to discuss on the talk page, report possible proxies, or request that a blocked IP be rechecked.

    • If you've been blocked as an open proxy, please see: Help:blocked.
    • To report a proxy check or an incorrect block, see the #Reporting section.

    Open proxies may be blocked from editing
