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 3.82.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪L235‬ 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 21:36, 3 July 2026.

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 '''Kanak and Socialist National Liberation Front''' (((lang-fr|Front de Libération Nationale Kanak et Socialiste)), '''FLNKS''') is a pro-independence alliance of political parties in [[New Caledonia]]. It was founded in 1984 at a congress of various political parties. Its supporters are mostly from the [[Kanak people|Kanak]] indigenous population but also include supporters from other ethnic communities.

==History==
It is composed of the [[Caledonian Union]] (UC) (a centre-left formerly multi-ethnic party dating back to the early postwar period) on the one hand and the [[National Union for Independence]] (UNI) on the other.<ref>((cite book | last = Derbyshire | first = J | title = Encyclopedia of world political systems | publisher = Sharpe Reference | location = Armonk, N.Y | year = 2000 | isbn = 9781317471561 | page=834))</ref> The UNI includes [[Melanesian Progressive Union]] (a political movement based on the island's west coast and mainly around the village of Poya, where its founder, the late Edmond Nekiriai, came from), the [[Oceanian Democratic Rally]] (a [[Polynesians|Polynesian]] ([[Wallis and Futuna|Wallisian-and-Futunian]]) based party) and the [[Party of Kanak Liberation]] (PALIKA), a more radical party founded by left-leaning students that came back from France after the [[May 1968 events in France|May 1968 riots]]. Both the UC and UNI are of approximately equal size, and with varying rhetoric. However, all support the independence of [[New Caledonia]]. The party boycotted the [[1987 New Caledonian independence referendum|1987 independence referendum.]]<ref name=DD>[http://www.sudd.ch/event.php?lang=en&id=nc011987 New Caledonia (France), 13 September 1987: Status] Direct Democracy ((in lang|de))</ref>

The party has been divided since the early 1990s between the Caledonian Union and UNI, and, as a result, the two factions often run candidates and lists against each other and neither can agree on a leader of the FLNKS. The coalition only has a spokesperson, Victor Tutugoro.

An attempt to re-unite the party was made on the occasion of the [[2007 French legislative election|2007 legislative elections]] in France, in which both New Caledonian [[Constituency (France)|constituencies]] were up for election. In [[New Caledonia's 1st constituency]], Charles Washetine, a member of UNI-Palika, ran with a Caledonian Union running mate. In [[New Caledonia's 2nd constituency]], the leader of the Caledonian Union, Charles Pidjot, ran with a UNI-Palika running mate. However, both were defeated by the candidates of [[The Rally-UMP]].

The FLNKS ran a common list in the [[South Province, New Caledonia|South Province]] in the [[2009 New Caledonian legislative election|2009 election]] which obtained 8.82% and 4 seats in the province. In the province during the [[2004 New Caledonian legislative election|2004 elections]], the pro-independence faction was divided and did not win any seats.

==Presidents==
*[[Jean-Marie Tjibaou]] (1984–1989)
*[[Paul Néaoutyine]] (1989–1995)
*[[Roch Wamytan]] (1995–2001)
