Problems Creating a Wikipedia Account

Q: I got a "Account Creation Error" or "You are currently unable to edit Wikipedia due to a block affecting this IP address" when I tried to create my Wikipedia account.

A: If you are able to use the UW VPN, give that a try. Access to VPN can be subject to international law, so please be aware of the restrictions that may apply to you if you are accessing the course from a country other than the US. Use the 'all internet traffic' option. If you are unable to use the VPN, please contact the teaching team.
