Change Details

My global account is in the stewards' global group [[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalGroupPermissions/steward | which includes ]] both `ipblock-exempt` and `globalblock-exempt` permissions. That should allow my account to edit on all wikis even if the IP or IP range I am using (or any other member of said global group) is locally or globally "hardblocked" (i.e. logged-in users using that IP or network are prohibited to edit). Since today, I am however no longer able to do so; not even my user page.and I'm suspecting a #regression of some sort is happening as I've been able to edit without issues until today, and the oldest block I can find on the VPN range dates from May 2020. An API query (`action=query&meta=userinfo&uiprop=rights`) on enwiki lists my account as indeed having `ipblock-exempt` and `globalblock-exempt` permissions. Filing privately for precaution, just in case private info is needed to identify the causes.
