Welcome to The Sims Wiki. Due to persistent vandalism/abuse from the IP range you are on right now, it has been blocked from editing.

It is most likely not your fault that you are blocked, but by the actions of another user who was using this IP range.

Do not panic - you are still allowed to read The Sims Wiki. If you would like to edit, you will need to log in to a Wikia account. If you do not have an account, you can try to create one. Depending on the nature of the block, you may or may not be allowed to create a new account from this IP range.

If you need assistance, you can ask at the IRC Channel, or use your user talk page, as you should usually be able to edit that page. You can also create an account on another IP address, and log in with it here.

Please note that you may be allowed to request that this block be removed. Go to your talk page, edit it, and add the text "{{Unblock|1 = Your reason here}}".

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Description
This template is intended for use in the block summary when range blocking an IP range. Because a range block can affect hundreds if not thousands of users, a block message that reassures all innocents that the block they received was merely collateral damage is important. This template should inform innocent users caught up in a range block that the block was not aimed directly towards them, and provide tips on how to get around the block.
Usage
This template should be used in the block summary/reason of the user, not the talk page, as it is meant for range blocks, which block multiple IP addresses. Thus it should be transcluded:
{{Rangeblock}}
