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 54.163.0.0/16 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 17:28, 10 March 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.

__NOTOC__
[[File:Kinsley Post Office - Wakefield Road - geograph.org.uk - 1341071.jpg|thumb|Kinsley post office, which later closed.]]
'''Kinsley''' is a village in the [[civil parish]] of [[Hemsworth]], and the [[City of Wakefield]] district of [[West Yorkshire]], England.

Kinsley is a rural, ex-mining village. Its neighbouring villages are [[Fitzwilliam, West Yorkshire|Fitzwilliam]] to the north, to which it is conjoined, and Hemsworth to the south-east.
 
The village is on the [[B6273 road|B6273]] Wakefield Road, and approximately ((convert|7|mi|km|0)) from [[Wakefield]] to the north-west and a similar distance from the towns of [[Pontefract]] and [[Castleford]] to the north. The [[M1 motorway (Great Britain)|M1]] motorway is ((convert|8|mi|km|0)) to the west, and the [[M62 motorway|M62]], ((convert|6|mi|km|0)) to the north. A railway station at Fitzwilliam gives access to Wakefield, [[Leeds]], [[Doncaster]] and [[Sheffield]].

==History==
The village is probably best known for ''the Kinsley evictions'' of 15 August 1905, when 25 families were evicted from their homes by police during a strike at Hemsworth Colliery.<ref>((cite book |last=Routledge |first=Paul |date=1994 |title=Scargill: the unauthorized biography |location=London |publisher=Harper Collins |page=6 |isbn=0-00-638077-8))</ref>  They were made temporarily homeless, and eventually set up camp at Outwood Hall farm in [[Outwood, West Yorkshire]].<ref>"Outwood Hall Farm and evicted miners", Wakefield Express, page 30, 12 December 2014</ref>

== Landmarks ==
[[File:Track-side bench, Kinsley Greyhound Stadium - geograph.org.uk - 1628739.jpg|thumb|Kinsley Greyhound Stadium]]
[[Kinsley Greyhound Stadium]] is at the centre of the village on Wakefield Road.

To the south of the greyhound stadium and Hoyle Mill Road, is [[Hemsworth]] Water Park & Playworld, which has two lakes: the larger lake is used for pedalo rides and has sandy beaches; the smaller lake is in a more secluded area which attracts wildlife. Both lakes are stocked for fishing. Grassed areas provide for picnics and games, contain an outdoor adventure playground for children, and a miniature railway.

At the south of the Water Park is Vale Head Park, with 9-hole golf course, tennis court, crazy golf and play park facilities.

== Education ==
Education in Kinsley is provided by Kinsley J&I School on the Wakefield Road. [[Hemsworth Arts and Community Academy]] in the neighbouring village of Hemsworth is the secondary school for 11- to 16- and 16- to 19-year-olds.

In December 2016, three cleaners at Kinsley J&I School were sacked after striking in protest at [[outsourcing]].  The sacking was condemned by Labour Party leader [[Jeremy Corbyn]].<ref>
