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 3.237.0.0/16 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 March 2025.

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.

'''Lihue''' (((lang-haw|Līhu((okina))e)), ((IPA-haw|liːˈhuʔe|))) is an [[unincorporated community]], [[census-designated place]] (CDP) and the [[county seat]] of [[Kauai County, Hawaii|Kauai County]], [[Hawaii]], United States. Lihue is the second-largest town on the [[Hawaiian Islands|Hawaiian]] island of [[Kauai|Kaua((okina))i]], following [[Kapaa, Hawaii|Kapa((okina))a]]. As of the [[2010 United States Census|2010 census]], the CDP had a population of 6,455,<ref name="Census 2010">((Cite web| url=http://factfinder2.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/DEC/10_DP/G001/1600000US1545200| title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Lihue CDP, Hawaii| publisher=U.S. Census Bureau| work=American Factfinder| access-date=February 4, 2019))((dead link|bot=medic|date=April 2020))((cbignore|bot=medic))</ref> up from 5,694 at the 2000 census.

== History ==
In ancient times, Lihue was a small village. ''Līhu((okina))e'' means "cold chill" in the [[Hawaiian language]].<ref>((Hawaiian Dictionaries |Lihue |dic=pp |accessdate= September 24, 2010 ))</ref><ref>((Hawaiian Dictionaries |Lihue |dic=hpn |accessdate= September 24, 2010 ))</ref> Lihue is in the ancient district of [[Puna, Hawaii|Puna]], the southeastern coast of the island, and the land division (''[[ahupuaa|ahupua((okina))a]]'') of Kalapaki.<ref>((Hawaiian Dictionaries |Lihue |HASH974f8f322d5f24f0422bab |dic=hpn |accessdate= September 24, 2010 ))</ref> [[Governors of Kauai|Royal Governor]] [[Kaikioewa|Kaikio((okina))ewa]] officially made it his governing seat in 1837, moving it from [[Waimea, Kauai County, Hawaii|Waimea]];<ref name="Lihue">((cite web |url=http://www.hawaiianencyclopedia.com/l299hue.asp |title= Līhuʻe |work=Hawaiian Encyclopedia |access-date=2010-04-12|author=Daniel Harrington |publisher=Mutual Publishing ))</ref> he named the town after land he owned on [[Oahu]] by the same name.

With the emergence of the [[sugar plantations in Hawaii|sugar industry]] in the 1800s, Lihue became the central city of the island with the construction of a large [[sugar mill]]. Early investors were [[Henry A. Peirce]], [[Charles Reed Bishop]] and [[William Little Lee]]. The plantation struggled until [[William Harrison Rice]] built the first [[irrigation]] system in 1856.<ref>((cite web |title= Lihue Plantation Company History (Kauai) |url= http://www2.hawaii.edu/~speccoll/p_lihue.html |work= Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association Plantation Archives |year=2004 |access-date= September 17, 2010 |publisher= [[University of Hawaii at Manoa|University of Hawaii at Mānoa]] Library ))</ref>

Subsequent [[plantation]] owner [[Paul Isenberg]] helped [[German people]] emigrate to Lihue starting in 1881, with the first [[Lutheran]] church in Hawaii founded in 1883.<ref>((cite web |title= Our History & Heritage |work= official web page |publisher= Lihue Lutheran Church |url= http://www.lihuelutheran.com/ |access-date= September 24, 2010))</ref> Services were held in German well into the 1960s. By the 1930s, [[George Norton Wilcox]] became one of the largest [[sugarcane]] plantation owners, buying [[Grove Farm (Lihue, Hawaii)|Grove Farm]] from [[Hermann A. Widemann]].<ref>((cite web |title= History |work= Grove Farm web site |url= http://www.grovefarm.com/history |access-date=  September 17, 2010 ))</ref> The Wilcox family home, Kilohana, has been converted into a restaurant and gift shop. The surrounding plantation now grows crops and livestock. A [[narrow-gauge]] [[tourist railroad]] with vintage [[diesel locomotive]]s from [[Armstrong Whitworth|Whitworth]] and [[General Electric]] offers tours of the plantation; horse-drawn carriage tours are offered as well. The grounds are also the site of [[luau]]s, many of which are offshore excursions booked through [[NCL America]]. Lihue also houses the [[Kauai Museum]], which details the [[history of Kauai]].<ref>((cite web |title= Kauaʻi Museum |work= official web site |url= http://www.kauaimuseum.org/ |access-date= September 17, 2010  ))</ref>

== Geography and climate==
[[File:NASA 1929 2012 Lihue, Kauai.gif|left|thumb|300px|Air thermography, 1929 to 2012]]
Lihue is on the eastern side of the island of Kauai, bordered by [[Hanamaulu, Hawaii|Hanamaulu]] to the north and [[Puhi, Hawaii|Puhi]] to the west. Its shorefront on the [[Kauai Channel]] of the Pacific Ocean extends from Hanamaulu Bay in the north to the larger [[Nawiliwili Bay]] to the south. [[Hawaii Route 50]] leads west from Lihue ((convert|12|mi)) to [[Kalaheo, Hawaii|Kalaheo]] and beyond to the western side of the island, while [[Hawaii Route 56]] leads north ((convert|7|mi|0)) to [[Kapaa, Hawaii|Kapaa]] and onwards to the northern side of the island.

According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the Lihue CDP has an area of ((convert|19.3|sqmi|km2|order=flip)), of which ((convert|17.3|km2|order=flip)) is land and ((convert|2.0|km2|order=flip)), or 10.42%, is water.<ref name="Census 2010"/>

Lihue has a [[tropical wet and dry climate]] zone ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen classification]] ''As'') with a relatively dry summer season.<ref name = koppen>((Cite journal | last1 = Kottek | first1 = M. | last2 = Grieser | first2 = J.
