I don't know how to get unbanned from the debian wiki. I created accounts too quickly?
(lemmy.world)
I don't know how to get unbanned. I created an account with a wrong username (with typo) a few nights ago, tried again, and failed, gave up. Tried to create an account with a different name/email and got this. Unsure how long this will take to cool off. It said something about "send a mail to explain why you're creating accounts" before It just shows everything as this.
The only bloody reason I wanted to create an account was to see if I could set some kind of dark mode, looking at that wiki makes me feel like I'm starting into a lightbulb, but I'm running debian, and wanted to get info on the init system in use in debian.
Debian, like Wikipedia, uses MediaWiki. On MediaWikis, Dark Reader will let you view a wiki without needing to create an account and set the thing to dark mode.
EDIT:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianWiki/FAQ
Might try that.
EDIT2: Sorry, take it back about using MediaWiki. Debian uses MoinMoin. But it still does work with Dark Reader.
thank you for everything, you're fixing both my problems.
Also, ironically, the fucking FAQ with the 403 forbidden solution is behind the goddamn 403, but thanks to you, at least I have the email address.
It is probably ip based since they are asking for your ip. Unplug your modem for 10 seconds, plug it back in, and you will get a new ip address and should be to access the site again

I second the dark reader recommendation, it'll save your eyeballs and works on (almost) every site. You can even install it on Firefox mobile and its various forks
