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 3.239.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ 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 or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation 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 colocation provider'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 colocation 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 or colocation provider (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 or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests 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 07:38, 2 November 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.

[[File:WV- Erma Byrd Center front.JPG|right|thumb|300px|Erma Byrd Center]]
The '''Erma Byrd Higher Education Center''' is a joint venture extension campus of several colleges in [[West Virginia]], US. It is located just off [[Interstate 64]] near [[Beckley, West Virginia|Beckley]]. It was dedicated in 2007 and is named for Erma Byrd, the wife of the West Virginia [[United States Senate|United States Senator]] [[Robert Byrd]].<ref>[http://www.register-herald.com/homepage/x519087223/Higher-Education-Center-dedicated-to-the-late-Erma-Byrd "Higher Education Center dedicated to the late Erma Byrd"], ''[[The Register-Herald]]'', October 8, 2007.</ref>

Currently it is used by [[Marshall University]] for extension graduate programs under the control of the [[Marshall University - South Charleston Campus]] branch campus, by [[Bluefield State College]] for programs in nursing, and by [[Concord University]] for programs in business and teacher education.  

[[New River Community and Technical College]] also used the facility, but was forced to vacate in 2010 when it was unable to secure budgetary approval to pay the increasing rent at the center.<ref>[http://www.wtrf.com/story.cfm?func=viewstory&storyid=81148 "Growing Pains: Community and Technical Colleges Come into Their Own"], ''[[WTRF]]'', June 10, 2010.</ref>

The Center consists of one building located on a reclaimed [[strip mine]] and is partly powered by [[wind energy]]. The reclaimed area has a larger potential development area than the campuses of the three constituent colleges combined. Eventual plans following a complete build-out, which will take several decades, are for new subject areas to be offered by [[West Virginia University]] and [[West Virginia University Institute of Technology]] followed by an evolution as a full branch campus of Concord, followed by an evolution into a stand-alone state college.
