Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The People's History Museum in Manchester and the Working Class Movement Library in Salford, in partnership with Wikimedia UK, are organising a Wikipedia edit-a-thon on 20 November between 10:00 and 16:00 UTC, and need an exemption for the number of new accounts created on the English Wikipedia for the IP address 146.87.210.102 (University of Salford).

TL;DR;

  • Duration: 2016-11-20T09:00 -0:00 - 2016-11-20T17:00 -0:00
  • Range: 146.87.210.102
  • Dbname: enwiki, commonswiki
  • Value: 30

I'll take care of the patch myself.
