FWIW, we might want to figure out a better solution here, maybe? :) There are a lot of people who face this problem. Some (thankfully!) care enough to drop in a mail or raise an issue (for example, here[1]). Others might just drop the idea of dropping mails, chasing people for getting access to the wiki. (which in the first place should have been accessible!) Maybe we want to figure out some better alternative/approach to this problem? (Of course, I am not saying the wiki admins aren't doing a good job, they are! Thank you, wiki team, for all your work that you do! \o/) But what I want to convey is that there are lots of people who face this problem and just turn away from accessing or using the wiki and never look back. And it's a bit...upsetting :( Best, Utkarsh --- [1]: https://github.com/utkarsh2102/rubocop-packaging/issues/9

Hello, thank you for your reply Andrei. "As far as I know certain IP addresses could be banned if they were used by spammers in the past." I am not a spammer, I do not understand... It is the first time I use this service, and it happens just after I tried to create an account. I will wait a reply from www team. Thank you.

Debian artwork Bullseye - not allowed ?
Hello dear Debian team, This morning, I tried to create an account there: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/Artwork/Bullseye?action=newaccount Because I would like to participate to Debian artwork for Bullseye... I encode my information, but after that, I get this message: "Forbidden You are not allowed to access this!" After I get this error message, I tried a second time with a VPN to connect back to the website and it works fine... Maybe I am "blacklisted/banned" ? (I don't know why) Or maybe it is a bug? Could someone help me to understand what happens? Could we fix that and create an account to let me participate to Debian artwork for Bullseye? (and let me back access to this website) If you need more information about me, let me know. If you are not the right team concerning this request, please, let me know who I have to contact. Many thanks, have a nice day. JCZ
