Problem with your username - your username was unsuitable and has been blocked; you need to choose another before continuing. Unintended triggering of anti-vandalism systems (known as "collateral damage") - your IP address unfortunately happens to match an IP address used by a blocked account. Ask for further information and/or request unblocking.
If I have been blocked, how can I get unblocked? See Wikipedia:Appealing a block and Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks . If I made an account on Wikipedia on one IP address but opened it on another, would that create problems?
A1: A block prevents a user account, an IP address, or a range of IP addresses from editing Wikipedia, either partially or entirely. Blocked users can still open, access, and read any article or page on Wikipedia; they just cannot modify or edit any pages that are restricted by the block.
Occasionally, a user will edit Wikipedia using the same IP address as another user who then becomes blocked. As a result, the first user will be shown a block message describing the other user's activity. If you receive a block notice about actions that you were not involved with, don't worry; stay calm.
If you have edited Wikipedia before and believe that the block is a result of your edits or actions, you may not create an account or request that an account be created for you. Instead, you should appeal your block. Your IP talk page may contain more information about the block. My School, Library, or Organization is blocked
Blocked users can continue to access Wikipedia, but cannot edit any page they are blocked from (including, if appropriate, their own user pages). In most cases, a site-wide blocked user will only be able to edit their own user talk page. Blocks are used to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, not to punish users (see § Purpose and goals).
