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 44.201.0.0/16 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 23:54, 31 July 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.

'''Ruisrock''' is a [[rock festival]] held annually on the island of [[Ruissalo]] in [[Turku]], [[Finland]].
Ruisrock, founded in 1970, is the second oldest rock festival in Europe<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.ruisrock.fi/en/info|title=Festival Information » Ruisrock|website=Ruisrock.fi|access-date=14 December 2017))</ref> (after [[Pinkpop Festival|Pinkpop]]) and the oldest in Finland. The festival has attracted international artists throughout its lifetime except around the start of the 2000s (decade), due to the organiser's economic issues.

==History==
The festival area is divided into two sections, Niittyalue ("meadow section") and Ranta-alue ("beach section").

In 2005, when the German [[industrial metal]] band [[Rammstein]] performed at the festival, 71,000 visitors attended the festival. In recent years, the number of visitors has fluctuated around 70,000. However, the all-time record was set in 1971, when there were about 100,000 visitors, with artists such as [[Canned Heat]] playing.

The 2009 edition of the festival saw a rise in attendance, when during 3 days there was a total of 92,000 visitors. In 2009, musical acts such as [[Slipknot (band)|Slipknot]], [[Disturbed (band)|Disturbed]], [[Faith No More]], [[Mew (band)|Mew]], [[In Flames]], [[Volbeat]], [[Glasvegas]], [[The Sounds]], [[D'espairsRay]], and popular domestic artists including [[Children of Bodom]], [[HIM (Finnish band)|HIM]], [[Eppu Normaali]], [[Tehosekoitin]] played at the festival, including the last live performance by [[The Crash (band)|The Crash]].

In 2010, the festival was celebrating its 40-year anniversary, with popular artists such as [[Slash (guitarist)|Slash]] and [[Ozzy Osbourne]] playing.

In 2016, three reports of [[rape]] that occurred at the festival had surfaced and an additional two for [[sexual harassment]]. These claims are still under investigation by the Finnish police.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://yle.fi/uutiset/one_ruisrock_rape_investigation_still_underway_rest_halted/9018349|title=One Ruisrock rape investigation still underway, rest halted|website=Yle.fi|access-date=2016-07-12))</ref>

In 2017, 2018 and 2019, the festival gathered 105,000 people in the Ruissalo People's Park during the weekend, and all three days were sold out in each of the three years. The 2020 and 2021 Ruisrocki were canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.<ref>((Cite web |date=2020-04-21 |title=Ruisrock peruuntuu – koronavirus pakotti järjestäjät vaikeaan päätökseen |url=https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-11315003 |access-date=2022-08-03 |website=Yle Uutiset |language=fi))</ref>
