You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''28 May Street''' (((lang-az|28 may küçəsi))) is located in the [[Nəsimi raion]] of [[Baku]]. Beginning at the Bulbul Avenue, it spans about ((convert|1|km|mi)) and ends up at the Richard Sorge Street. The street, among other names, was known as '''Telefonnaya''' (Telephone Street) during the [[Russian Empire|Russian rule]], then was renamed to '''28 April Street''' to mark the date of the establishment of [[Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic]].<ref>((cite web|url=http://azer.com/aiweb/categories/magazine/71_folder/71_articles/71_bakudiary.html|title= Baku Diary|publisher = Azerbaijan International|author=Jonelle Glosch|access-date=2010-06-27))</ref> Since 1992 it is known under the current name, which highlights the date when [[Azerbaijan Democratic Republic]] was declared.

==History==
Until the middle of the nineteenth century, the area was occupied by farms and orchards which belonged to the residents of Baku. After the construction of the [[Baku Train Station]] in 1883, there arose a need in a paved road that would connect the station with the city. In 1887, the first [[telephone exchange]] in Baku was built here. It gave the street its first name, Telefonnaya (Telephone Street). By the end of the nineteenth century, horsecars already ran on the street. The street itself, however, continued to be regarded as a city periphery, home to the urban poor and beggars, well into the end of the nineteenth century. In 1898, it gained importance due to the construction of the first [[Church of the Saviour, Baku|Lutheran church]] in Baku. In the early twentieth century, oil magnate [[Musa Naghiyev]] had the city's first [[multi-family residential]]s built on this street. In 1913, Telefonnaya was renamed to Romanovsky Prospekt (Romanov Avenue) to mark the 300th anniversary of the Romanov rule in the Russian Empire. In 1918, after Azerbaijan became independent from Russia, it was renamed to Lindley Street after Sir [[William Lindley]] who had contributed to the infrastructural development of Czar-era Baku. In 1923, after the Bolshevik power was installed in Azerbaijan, the Soviet government decided to get rid of the "bourgeois toponymy" and the street was given the name 28 April (the date of Azerbaijan's sovietisation in 1920). It was gradually built up as one or two-storey courtyard-based buildings gave way to blocks of flats, or were transformed into taller buildings through superstructures. In 1934, two massive identical [[Stalinist architecture|Stalinist]]-style buildings were completed at the very beginning of the street, designed by [[Mikayil Huseynov]] and [[Sadikh Dadashov]]. One of them housed the Nizami Cinema, while the other later became the head office of [[AzerTaj]]. In the 1950s, the so-called Soldier Market was removed from the former Yarmarochnaya Square to be replaced by the [[Samad Vurghun]] Park, featuring the poet's giant statue at the entrance.<ref>Gylman Ilkin. [http://kitabxana.net/files/books/file/1322564602.pdf «Baku and Bakuvians»].</ref> In 1967, the underground of the street was traversed by the first [[Baku Metro|metro]] line, with 28 April station built nearby. In 1991, both the street and the station were renamed to 28 May to mark the anniversary of Azerbaijan's declaration of independence in 1918. Today 28 May Street is one of the largest in the city. The traffic between Bulbul Avenue and Sorge Street is one-way from east to west. The [[tram]]way which connected the easternmost part of the street with the [[Black City (Baku)|Black City]] was dismantled in the early 2000s.

Among the street's landmarks are the Lutheran [[Church of the Saviour, Baku|Church of the Saviour]] and [[Samad Vurgun]] park. The nearest [[metro station|metro hub]] is 28 May Station.
