It looks to me like I was blacklisted for EN Wikipedia
API requests. My
website has been using the API for awhile now, but suddenly I'm getting 403
errors coming back. I've tried to follow all the rules, but if I've missed
something I'm happy to make changes. What disturbs me most is that there
was no attempt to contact me before being blacklisted to let me know there
was a problem. Where should I go to find out what the problem is?****
Thanks,****
