A white list function can be usefull to have. A proxy blocker override.
That would mean knowingly allowing specific open proxies (which, by definition, anyone can then use to troll/vandalise/etc.).
Yes, off course. That is the idea of a override. It is not because a user is using a open proxy the will vandalise anything. I would like to have the option to allow write acces to a user who has been blocked by the proxy blocker if I feel it is necessary.
Do you know what the effect is when the user "proxy blocker" is blocked? Will that stop the proxy blocker? And does it harm the working the proxy blocker on the other wikipedias?
Label; Now the proxy blocker is using the notice;
/Your IP address has been blocked because it is an open proxy. Please contact your Internet service provider or tech support and inform them of this serious security problem/
For the Dutch Wikipedia I would like to see this notice used;
/Dit is een automatische preventieve blokkering omdat U gebruik maakt van een open proxyserver. Zie [[gebruiker:Proxy blocker|Proxy blocker]] voor meer informatie/
