    WikiProject Open proxies Shortcuts

    The WikiProject Open proxies seeks to identify, verify and block open proxies and anonymity network exit nodes. To prevent abuse or vandalism, only proxy checks by verified users will be accepted. All users are welcome to discuss on the talk page, report possible proxies, or request that a blocked IP be rechecked.

    • If you've been blocked as an open proxy, please see: Help:blocked.
    • To report a proxy check or an incorrect block, see the #Reporting section.

    Open proxies may be blocked from editing


    Reporting

    Please report IP addresses you suspect are open proxies below. A project member will scan or attempt to connect to the proxy, and if confirmed will block the address.

    Before reporting any suspected open proxies here, please remember that not all vandals are open proxies and vandals should not get an automatic check here; remember that it takes the volunteers here about 5-10 minutes to give a request a thorough check.
    File a new report here
    I. For block requests:

    Verify that the following criterion has been met:

    • The IP has made abusive contributions within the past week
    For unblock requests:

    Verify that the following criteria has been met:

    • No current criteria
    II.

    For block requests Replace "IP" below with the IP address you are reporting.


    For unblock requests Replace "IP" below with the IP address you are reporting.


    III. Fill out the resulting page and fill-in the requested information.
    IV. Save the page.
    Verified Users/Sysops Templates
    • IP is an open proxy {{Proxycheck|confirmed}} for confirmed open proxies and Tor exit nodes.
    •  Likely IP is an open proxy {{Proxycheck|likely}} for likely open proxies and Tor exit nodes.
    •  Possible IP is an open proxy {{Proxycheck|possible}} for possible open proxies and Tor exit nodes.
    •  Unlikely IP is an open proxy {{Proxycheck|unlikely}} for unlikely open proxies and Tor exit nodes.
    • Not currently an open proxy {{Proxycheck|unrelated}} for IP's confirmed not to be an open proxy or Tor exit node.
    • Inconclusive {{Proxycheck|inconclusive}} for IP's that are inconclusive.
    • no Declined to run a check {{Proxycheck|decline}} to decline a check.

    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 01:23, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

    @Rich Smith. Have you discussed this with the blocking admin ST47? Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:07, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
    @Malcolmxl5: I have not, my last attempt at asking ST47 about a block, albeit by their bot, was left unanswered - Rich 15:43, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
    @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)
    @Malcolmxl5: Anything? - Rich 23:20, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

    113.203.237.84

    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)

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

    62.216.233.206

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

    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. Klinetalkcontribs 19:36, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

    91.239.6.150

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

    Reason: Showed up at the same AFD that's been getting hit with these, and the geolocate link reports it as a VPN server. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 16:48, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

    Open proxy blocked. Another Nord VPN. 91.239.6.0/24 is blocked as a web host provider with multiple Nord VPNs in this range also blocked. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:28, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

    27.254.113.0/24

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

    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)

     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)

    Automated lists and tools

    • User:AntiCompositeBot/ASNBlock maintained by User:AntiCompositeBot is a list of hosting provider ranges that need assessment for blocks that is updated daily. Admins are encouraged to review the list and assess for blocks as needed. All administrators are individually responsible for any blocks they make based on that list.
    • ISP Rangefinder is a tool that allows administrators to easily identify and hard block all ranges for an entire ISP. It should be used with extreme caution, but is useful for blocking known open proxy providers. All administrators are individually responsible for any blocks they make based on the results from this tool.
    • IPCheck is a tool that can help provide clues about potential open proxies.
    • Bullseye provides information about IPS, including clues about potential open proxies.
    • whois-referral is a generic WHOIS tool.
    • Range block finder finds present and past range blocks.
