Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hi,

We would like to request a temporary lift of the IP cap for account creations for next week's WikiGap editathon at the Chalmers University of Technology in Göteborg.

Time: 2020-03-06 from 10am to 6pm UTC
The range is 130.241.4.0/22 – 130.241.8.0/22. More exactly, the addresses available will be 130.241.4.14 - 130.241.7.254 and 130.241.8.14 - 130.241.11.253.

Attendants: About 35. We encourage them to create accounts beforehand, but we expect some people will not have done that.
Wikis: enwp and svwp.
