This template may be used by a blocked user or IP address to request a review of the block in accordance with the [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocking policy]]. It is recommended to read the [[Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks|Guide to appealing blocks]] before using this template.

===Usage===
The following should be placed on [[Special:MyTalk|your talk page]]:

<code><nowiki>{{unblock | reason=</nowiki><var>Your reason here</var><nowiki> ~~~~}}</nowiki></code>

Remember to replace "<var>Your reason here</var>" with why you think you should be unblocked.

===Notes===
* This template puts pages into [[:Category:Requests for unblock|Category:Requests for unblock]].
* Abuse of this template may result in your access to the talk page being removed.
* Do not [[Wikipedia:Substitution|subst]] this template.
* Do not unblock users without consulting with the administrator who placed the block, except in obvious, uncontroversial cases. Blocks marked as {{tlx|checkuserblock}}, {{tlx|checkuserblock-account}}, {{tlx|OversightBlock}} and {{tlx|ArbComBlock}} can only be reviewed by the users specified on the individual templates.
* Administrators can mark unblock requests as "awaiting response from the user" by adding the parameter <code><nowiki>|idletimestamp={{subst:CURRENTTIMESTAMP}}</nowiki></code> to it <em>without previewing the result for more than 10 seconds</em>. The request will disappear from [[CAT:RFU]] until any further edit is made to the appeal's page.
