And can anyone tell me why? I thought there was a system in place for legitimate users to create accounts and then edit via Tor... -- [[User:AndySimpson|AndySimpson]] <sup>[[User talk:AndySimpson|talk?]]</sup> 11:09, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
:Tor is hardblocked because we get an overwhelming amount of abuse from it. Legitimate users with good reason to use it can request [[WP:IPBE|IPBE]]. I've updated the page to reflect the status quo - the system for creating accounts is described there. -- [[user:zzuuzz|zzuuzz]] <sup>[[user_talk:zzuuzz|(talk)]]</sup> 13:19, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
== 3,000 diffs for new users in China ==
The project page states:
:[[Wikipedia:WikiProject on closed proxies/Usage instructions|Ask someone outside of mainland China to set you up with an account]]
However, [[Wikipedia:WikiProject on closed proxies/Criteria]] states:
:Do you have over 3000 edits on Wikipedia?
How is someone from China supposed to make 3,000 edits in order to qualify? Is one supposed to make 3,000 diffs and e-mail them to a closed proxy operator? --[[User:Damian Yerrick|Damian Yerrick]] ([[User talk:Damian Yerrick|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Damian Yerrick|stalk]]) 14:39, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
