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.

The '''Lord of the Isle of Wight''' was a [[English feudal barony|feudal title]], at times [[hereditary title|hereditary]] and at others by royal appointment in the [[Kingdom of England]], before the development of an extensive [[peerage]] system.

[[William the Conqueror]] granted the lordship of the [[Isle of Wight]] to his relative and close counsellor [[William FitzOsbern, 1st Earl of Hereford]] in 1066. He died in 1071 and was succeeded by his son [[Roger de Breteuil, 2nd Earl of Hereford]], whose surname was taken from his father's lordship of [[Breteuil, Eure|Breteuil]] in [[Normandy]]. Roger is known to history for his role in the [[Revolt of the Earls]], for which he was deprived of his lands and titles and imprisoned in 1075.

The next creation of the title was by [[Henry I of England|Henry I]] in 1101 for [[Richard de Redvers]], who had been one of his principal supporters in the struggle against his brother [[Robert Curthose]] for control of the English throne. On his death in 1107 he was succeeded by his son [[Baldwin de Redvers, 1st Earl of Devon|Baldwin]], who was created [[Earl of Devon#Earls of Devon, First Creation (1141)|Earl of Devon]] in 1141. The lordship of the Isle of Wight was thereafter held with the earldom by the de Redvers family. The last holder of both titles was [[Isabel de Forz, 8th Countess of Devon|Isabella de Fortibus ''nee'' de Redvers, 8th Countess of Devon]], who inherited them on the death her brother [[Baldwin de Redvers, 7th Earl of Devon|Baldwin]] in 1262. Widowed the previous year, she became the wealthiest woman in the [[British Isles]] who was not a member of a royal family. She lived in [[Carisbrooke Castle]] on the island and exercised her rights and privileges as feudal overlord. On her deathbed, she sold the island to [[Edward I of England|Edward I]] for 6,000 [[Mark (currency)|marks]].

The Lordship thereafter became a royal appointment. Its holders were usually close confidants of, or closely related to, the monarch. For example, in the fourteenth century [[Edward II of England|Edward II]] appointed his [[favourite]] [[Piers Gaveston, 1st Earl of Cornwall|Piers Gaveston]]. Edward's son [[Edward III of England|Edward, Earl of Chester, afterwards King Edward III]] was also appointed as were the latters' grandson [[Edward of Norwich, 2nd Duke of York]]. In the fifteenth century [[Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester]] "son, brother and uncle of kings" was appointed, as were members of the [[House of Beaufort|Beaufort]] and Woodville families during the [[Wars of the Roses]]. The last appointee, [[Edward Woodville, Lord Scales|Edward Woodville, ''styled'' Lord Scales]], who had supported [[Henry VII of England|Henry VII]] in that conflict, died in 1488.
