Requesting temporary lift of IP cap
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hello!
I've been asked to contact you to request a lift of the IP cap for sign ups as we have an event scheduled for multiple classes and persons on campus. The information is as follows (taken from this site):

  • The event time frame (start and end) of your event, and the time zone you expressed the hours (local or UTC)

March 26th from 8:30 AM EST to 9:00 PM EST

  • The IPs to allow (you may have to contact the venue organization to learn this information)

192.154.64.244

  • The expected number of people to attend the event

around 200

  • The list of wikis you wish to allow account creation on

Wikipedia

  • A link to the Wiki page discussing the event or, if there is no such page, a link to your user page on your primary wiki:

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Salem_College/Day_of_Digital_Service_-_Salem_Storms_Wiki?enroll=wajlcour

The link above has been provided to me, but appears to be having technical issues. I've reached out to the organizers and they're looking into what may be wrong.

Please let me know if there's any more information you may need. Thanks!

Hi, I assume, based on location of Salem Academy and College, that EST is Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5) and not Egypt Standard Time or others. Also I assume that "Wikipedia" means the English Wikipedia, based on the configuration of the Outreach Dashboard course.

Those are all correct assumptions. Thanks!
