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 35.171.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ 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 05:20, 2 December 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.

'''''Armando Diaz''''' was a [[light cruiser]] of the ((sclass2|Condottieri|cruiser|4)) and the sister-ship of the ((ship|Italian cruiser|Luigi Cadorna||2)). She served in the [[Regia Marina]] during [[World War II]]. She was built by OTO, La Spezia, and named after [[Armando Diaz]], an Italian Field Marshal of [[World War I]].

She was launched on  29 April 1933 and served in the Mediterranean after her completion. From 1 September 1934 until February 1935 she made a cruise to Australia and New Zealand.

During the [[Spanish Civil War]] she served in the western Mediterranean and was based at [[Palma de Mallorca]] and [[Melilla]].

In July 1940, she was present at the [[Battle of Calabria]], also called the battle of Punta Stilo. In October she took part in a mission to Albania, and in December she came under direct orders of [[Supermarina]] (Naval Headquarters) for special duties in connection with the protection of traffic to [[Albania]] from January 1941. However, the following month an important supply convoy to [[Tripoli, Libya|Tripoli]] required her use for cover, in company with the light cruiser ((ship|Italian cruiser|Giovanni dalle Bande Nere||2)) and some destroyers.

In the course of this operation the ship was torpedoed and sunk by the British submarine ((HMS|Upright)) off the [[Kerkennah Islands]] in the early hours of 25 February. It took the Italian cruiser only six minutes to sink after her magazine detonated, with the loss of 484 men.<ref>((Cite web|title = HMS Upright, submarine|url = http://www.naval-history.net/xGM-Chrono-12SS-09U-HMS_Upright.htm|website = www.naval-history.net|access-date = 2015-11-19))</ref>

==Wreck==
The wreck of ''Armando Diaz'' was located around 2009-2010. The ship lies on her port side in less than 50 meters of water, with her bow blown off. Her aft turrets are still in place, their guns buried in the bottom.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://esstre.pl/wrecks/CR/armandodiaz.php|title=Lost Cruisers - Armando Diaz))</ref>
