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 54.234.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ 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 05:36, 2 January 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.

'''Son''' is an old town, and a former municipality. It is located in [[Vestby]] municipality in [[Akershus]].

== Overview ==
Son is located at the [[Oslofjord]], 50 kilometres south of the Norwegian capital Oslo, just north of [[Moss, Norway|Moss]] and near the border of [[Østfold]], and is located west of the village of [[Hølen]]. Before the merge with Vestby the number of inhabitants in Son was about 800–900 (1940). Today, Son, including Store Brevik has 5035 inhabitants (2006).

Son, together with the village of Hølen, was established as a municipality January 1, 1838 (see [[formannskapsdistrikt]]). Son and Hølen were separated as municipalities of their own January 1, 1848. On January 1, 1964, Son was merged with Vestby and then lost its status as a town (ladested).<ref name=his>[http://www.herison.no/ipub/pages/a-small-town-community.php A small town community] ((Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161102033454/http://www.herison.no/ipub/pages/a-small-town-community.php |date=2016-11-02 )) www.herison.no ((in lang|en))</ref>

== History ==
In the [[Renaissance]] era, Son became famous as a harbour.  Timber came from the nearby areas and was partially floated down the river.  On many Dutch maps from that time (the oldest being from 1582) the Oslo fjord is noted as ''Zoon Water''.  However, when this period ended, Son lost much of its importance.

Later, Son became known as an 'artist town', as many well-known painters and writers have resided there.<ref name="his" />

== The name ==
The name Son is pronounced with a long [[Close back rounded vowel|[u]]] > [su:n].

''Son'' is probably the old name of the river Hølenselva ([[Old Norse|Norse]] ''*Són''). Some distance up this river lies the parish [[Såner]] ([[Norse language|Norse]] ''Sánar''), and this name is most likely the [[plural]] of ''*Són''. In [[Norse literature]] is the word ''són'' used as a poetic word for [[blood]], and it is probably an old word for [[liquid]].

Until 1889 the name was written ''Soon''.
