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 3.236.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ 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. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host 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 web host'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 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 (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.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they 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 06:21, 30 September 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.

'''Pompeu Fabra i Poch''' (((IPA-ca|pumˈpɛw ˈfaβɾə)); [[Gràcia]], [[Barcelona]], 20 February 1868 – [[Prada de Conflent]], 25 December 1948) was a [[Catalans|Catalan]] engineer and [[Linguist|grammarian]] from Spain. He was the main author of the normative reform of contemporary [[Catalan language]].

==Life==
Pompeu Fabra was born in Gràcia, which at that time was still separate from Barcelona, in 1868. He was the last of twelve children born to Josep Fabra i Roca and his wife Carolina Poch i Martí. When Pompeu was six, the family moved to Barcelona.

From a fairly young age Fabra dedicated himself to the study of the Catalan language.((sfn|The Architect of Modern Catalan)) Through the journal and publishing house ((interlanguage link|Tipografia de L'Avenç|wd=Q11951928)), he participated in a campaign to reform [[Catalan orthography]] between 1890–92. He published ''Tractat d'ortografia catalana'' with the writer and publisher ((interlanguage link|Jaume Massó i Torrents|wd=Q11927313)) and ((interlanguage link|Joaquim Casas i Carbó|wd=Q11928079)), a notable lawyer and writer, in 1904.

Despite his personal interest in linguistics, Fabra studied industrial engineering in [[Barcelona]] and in 1902 accepted a chair of chemistry position at the School of Engineering in [[Bilbao]].((sfn|The Architect of Modern Catalan)) During his tenure in Bilbao, Fabra participated actively in the [[First International Congress of the Catalan Language]] held in 1906. This event gave him a certain prestige in the field of Catalan linguistics. In 1911, he returned to Barcelona to become a professor (''[[Catedrático|catedràtic]]'') of Catalan &mdash; a position created by the ''diputació'' (local government) of Barcelona &mdash; and a member of the department of [[philology]] at the newly created [[Institut d'Estudis Catalans]], of which he would later become president. In 1912 he published his ''Gramática de la lengua catalana'' (in Spanish).

The Institute published the ''Normes ortogràfiques'' in 1913, the ''Diccionari ortogràfic'' in 1917, and its official ''Gramàtica catalana'' in 1918.((sfn|The Architect of Modern Catalan)) That same year, Fabra also edited the textbook ''Curs mitjà de gramàtica catalana,'' published by l'Associació Protectora de l'Ensenyança Catalana. His "Converses filològiques," first published in the newspaper "[[La Publicitat]]," were later collected as "Popular Barcino." Probably his most famous work was the ''[[Diccionari General de la Llengua Catalana]]'' (1932), the first edition of which later became the Institute's official dictionary.

[[image:Selva fabra varela.jpg|thumb|Pompeu Fabra is located in the center]]
In 1932, owing to his scientific prestige, he was unanimously named a professor (''catedràtic'') of the Republican ''Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona'' (not to be confused with the later [[Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona]] created in the 1960s during the [[Spain under Franco|Francoist régime]]). The following year he was named President of the University's governing council, which resulted in his imprisonment in 1934 following the "events of 6 October" when troops of the [[Second Spanish Republic]] put down a Catalan government uprising led by [[Lluis Companys]].((sfn|The Architect of Modern Catalan))

Fabra was reinstated to his faculty position after the elections of February 1936, but the [[Spanish Civil War]] began in July of that year, and he had to flee his country when Barcelona was being invaded by the Francoist army.  By 1939 he was in exile in [[France]] where he endured many hardships. He lived in [[Paris]] and [[Montpellier]], where he presided over the ''[[Jocs Florals]]'' literary competition in 1946. He eventually moved to [[Prada de Conflent]] in the [[Catalan language|Catalan]]-speaking area of France, where he died on 25 December 1948. At some point during the exile, he made his will in [[Andorra]], so that it would be done in a country where Catalan was the official language.((sfn|The Architect of Modern Catalan))

==Legacy==
Every year, his tomb in the [[Saint-Michel-de-Cuxa|Cuixà]] monastery near Prada is visited by thousands of Catalans.

The [[Universitat Pompeu Fabra]] in Barcelona bears his name.
