Says it's not an open proxy; block was a while back. Is this still operative? Daniel Case ( talk) 12:11, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
Reason: Requested unblock. It's not an open proxy. It's an MWEB DSL IP address. It was blocked with a message of "{{blocked proxy}} <!-- 41.240.253.112:8080 -->", but I checked and port 8080 is not open. - htonl ( talk) 12:47, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
User talk:Euriditi has been requesting unblock. He says he is stopped from editing by this IP block. The editing record of Euriditi seems harmless, and it goes back many months. Mostly he is (correctly) adding interwiki links from topics in our Wikipedia to the Albanian wikipedia. I was unable to activate 79.106.109.123 as a proxy on port 8080. That IP does show up at Project Honeypot as having been recently used in dictionary attacks. It would not trouble me to issue IPBE in his case, since he has a good edit history. This is part of a range of IPs from Tirana, and they show up in editing articles on Albanian football players (as does Euriditi), so everything looks logical to me. I am unsure about lifting the IP block. Perhaps it could be reduced to anon-only. Here is Euriditi's record:
-- EdJohnston ( talk) 15:00, 29 March 2011 (UTC) Reason: Requested unblock.
Reason: There is a block for OVH's range 91.121.192.0/20. This includes one of my servers (91.121.197.199) which I occasionally use to get access to the Internet from severly filtered locations. This server does not run any proxy software. -- ColdWind ( talk) 18:09, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
