103.23.206.0/23

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

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]

113.203.237.84

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

113.203.237.84 · talk · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google · ipcheck · HTTP · geo · rangeblocks · spur · shodan

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]

(Not a CU) IP2Location identifies this IP as a Surfshark VPN[1] but I don’t know how reliable IP2Location is. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 09:39, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

62.216.233.206

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

62.216.233.206 · talk · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google · ipcheck · HTTP · geo · rangeblocks · spur · shodan

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]

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Maharaja_Kam_Dev_Misir&action=history

Reason: (vandalizing and edit warring and putting unauthorized and wrong data on the page) Shaurya Singh Sikarwar (talk) 16:09, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined to run a check. Not on the basis of vandalism and edit warring. It’s caught up in a rangeblock 2409:4089:a000::/35 for one month anyway. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 15:40, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

86.62.29.101

– This proxy check request is closed and will soon be archived by a bot.

86.62.29.101 · talk · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google · ipcheck · HTTP · geo · rangeblocks · spur · shodan

Reason: Have seen a bunch of socking from this /24. The geolocate link shows it as a VPN. I don't know what the exact range is, but it looks like at least that much. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 16:45, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your instincts are good. Spur identifies the IP as belonging to the Nord VPN anonymization network. I’ll have a look at the range as there seems to be a web host provider in the mix. Thanks, — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 17:02, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Open proxy blocked 86.62.29.0/24 is blocked as a web host provider with multiple Nord VPNs in this range also blocked. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 17:47, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also blocked 86.62.30.0/24 for the same reason. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 18:06, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
