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 34.205.0.0/16 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 05:44, 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.

== Quick overview ==
This template creates an [[Help:Link#Wikilinks|internal link]] to the specified page (1) with the specified [[query string]] (qs) of the form <code>qs=name=value&name2=value2</code> and optionally the specified caption (2) which defaults to the specified page (1). The intended purpose of this template is to provide the ability to create internal links with a query string component, which addresses a limitation of the current [http://www.mediawiki.org wiki software].

Example usage:
                      ''1         query string               2''
  <nowiki>((</nowiki>((BASEPAGENAME))|Special:Allpages|qs=namespace=1|See what people are talking about))

Produces:
(( ((BASEPAGENAME))|Special:Allpages|qs=namespace=1|See what people are talking about))

== Reason ==
The [[MediaWiki]] software does not support the use of a '''[[query string]]''' element of an [[URL]] as part of the [[Help:Link#Wikilinks|internal wiki link]] syntax. This means that when wishing to link to a page that requires a query string in order to display the desired view of a page, an [[Help:Link#External_links|external link]] must be used. This is misleading when linking to a page within the wiki itself. For example, to create a link to this page's edit page, one might use the following wikitext:
<code><nowiki>[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=((FULLPAGENAMEE))&action=edit edit]</nowiki></code>.
This would produce the following link: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=((FULLPAGENAMEE))&action=edit edit]. However, the edit page is not really an external link, so the desired result would be ((Querylink|((FULLPAGENAMEE))|qs=action=edit|edit)), without the external link graphic.

== Description of use ==
Internal links with a query string URL element may be achieved through the use of this '''querylink''' template. This template has been provided as a [[workaround]] for the described wiki software limitation. The template has been designed to be usable in a similar manner to creating a normal internal link, and takes two to three parameters depending upon how you wish to use it. To create the example link from before to this page's edit page using the querylink template, the following wikitext markup was used:
  <nowiki>((Querylink|</nowiki>((FULLPAGENAMEE))<nowiki>|qs=action=edit|edit))</nowiki>

All templates are called by enclosing the template name and parameters within a pair of curly braces "<code>(())</code>". All parameters are separated with the pipe character "<code>|</code>". The first "parameter" is always the ''name'' of the template that you wish to use and as such is not formally a parameter at all. In this case, it is <code>Querylink</code>.

#The first formal parameter passed to the template should be the name of the internal page that you wish to link. In this case, <code>((FULLPAGENAMEE))</code>.
#The second parameter is the query string used to display the desired view of the page. It has the form <code>qs=</code> followed by the name and value pairs of the query string of the form <code>name=value&name2=value2</code>. In this case, just one name and value pair is used: <code>action=edit</code>.
#The third parameter is optional. If included, the text of this parameter will be used as the display name for the link text in the article, similar to [[Wikipedia:Piped_link|piped links]]. If omitted, the page name will be used instead, similar to ordinary internal links. In this case, we specify a friendly name for the link: <code>edit</code>.

In some cases you might prefer to produce a query string without a page name. For that, simply omit the first parameter:
 <nowiki>((Querylink||qs=oldid=10000|10 000th revision))</nowiki>
This produces the link ((Querylink||qs=oldid=10000|10 000th revision)), pointing to the location https://en.wikipedia.org/?oldid=10000

==Limitations==

The template normally does not work as a target for [[Wikipedia:Redirect|<code>#REDIRECT</code>]] in redirect pages. You can [[Wikipedia:Substitution|subst:]] it to achieve that: <nowiki>((subst:querylink|...))</nowiki>
