Since my IP address is different from the one provided in that message, why the Abuse Filter is blocking me?
137.65.227.73 is the IP of one of the authentification proxies (all requests to the wiki go through one of them). It looks like AbuseFilter does IP blocking :-/ (besides user blocking) - and with the current config, it blocks the auth proxy IPs (instead of the real IP [1]) and therefore also blocks valid edits :-( I just disabled the "block user and/or IP" option in AbuseFilter (hopefully this doesn't result in too much spam) and removed the IP blocks so that you can edit the wiki again. Regards, Christian Boltz [1] There is a MediaWiki setting for proxy handling [2] so that the original IPs are honored, but obviously nobody did set that for the openSUSEwiki, and the server admins in Provo are less responsive than I'd hope :-/ [2] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSquidServers -- Es gibt Leute, bei denen man im Killfile sein sollte, oder man hat etwas flashc gemacht.
