Hi Daniel,
The usual procedure is explained here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mass_account_creation
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Mass_account_creation
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Learning_patterns/Six-account_limit

Normally to request a temporary lift of the IP cap, they should file a task
as explained on that page. There are some quick workarounds, like creating
accounts with smartphones.

Cheers,
Micru
