103.23.206.0/23 · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google

Reason: Requested unblock or softening. Non-proxy collateral on this range. - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 01:23, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rich Smith. Have you discussed this with the blocking admin ST47? Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:07, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Malcolmxl5: I have not, my last attempt at asking ST47 about a block, albeit by their bot, was left unanswered - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 15:43, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rich Smith. I understand. ST47 hasn’t edited for a while so let’s have a look at this. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:34, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Malcolmxl5: Anything? - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 23:20, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Completed @Rich Smith: I've left the range blocked but removed the hard block as the blocking admin hasn't been around in several months.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:10, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A user has requested a proxy check. A proxy checker will shortly look into the case.

Reason: I've blocked this IP for vandalism, and I noticed that it's tagged by a third parts as a VPN server. It would be useful for a CU to check if this is a proxy, so as to both hardblock and extend the length. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 05:09, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Reported as a proxy/vpn via IPCheck and datacenter via whatismyipaddress. May be worth checking the whole range as the ISP (Equinix) provides datacenters. Kline • talk • contribs 19:36, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kline. I am doubtful that this is a proxy/VPN. Typically, a proxy/VPN hides the location of the user and this is a U.K. IP editing U.K. topics but this appears to be a former Telecity range (Telecity were acquired by Equinix in 2016) and they were a colocation/web host provider. Whois gives a range of 62.216.233.0/24, I will block that on this basis. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 14:15, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Completed. 62.216.233.0/24 blocked as colocation/web host. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 14:25, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• 27.254.113.0/24 · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google

Reason: Appears to be a datacenter range that also would appear to have a Spur-identified VPNgate proxy exit node at 27.254.113.70. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 03:56, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Completed. @Red-tailed hawk. A feature of VPN Gate proxies is that volunteers use their computers as 'servers' and the proxies are characteristically randomly located rather than grouped in a net block. The IP has been blocked by Rsjaffe and some spot checking shows no others in the /24. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 14:29, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

120.29.76.0/23 · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google

Reason: Requested unblock/softening. Another ST47 block which looks to be excessive. Converge ICT Solutions DO offer co-location, but they also offer residential fibre internet connections. This seems to be the latter. Outside of just this request I want to make 2 others

1. Any hardblock that ST47 (or their bot) has place is reviewed
2. Any Converge ICT Solutions block is reduced to a softblock (or unblocked), to be re-instated if issues occur. - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 15:22, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
