You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range ‪2A02:4780:8:0:0:0:0:0/45‬ has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

{{notice|This page, concerning the weather of London, was considered an inappropriate title for an encyclopedia article in the past, and was long used as a deliberate example of a [[Wikipedia:Red link|non-existent page]] in Wikipedia documentation.

Can we redirect this to [[London#Climate]]? [[User:ViperSnake151|ViperSnake151]] 15:31, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
:Done. In before drama. --- [[User:RockMFR|RockMFR]] 18:15, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

== Aaarrrgh! ==

Let me just state, for the record, that creating "The weather in London" as a redirect -- "soft" or otherwise -- was '''wrong'''.  R-O-N-G '''''wrong'''''.

Yes, I know, I missed the [[Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2008_May_26#The weather in London → London#Climate|RFD]] and the [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Talk:The weather in London 2|MFD]] and all, so I can't really complain, but --- Sheesh.  What's Wikipedia coming to?  Grump. —[[User:Ummit|Steve Summit]] ([[User talk:Ummit|talk]]) 00:25, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

:Nobody cares anymore about [[Backward compatibility]] --[[User:Enric Naval|Enric Naval]] ([[User talk:Enric Naval|talk]]) 17:51, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

::The list of decisions above is fairly misleading, as it fails to distinguish clearly between the article and the talk page.  There was clear consensus [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/Talk:The_weather_in_London][http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2008_May_23][http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/Talk:The_weather_in_London_2] to keep the talk page which used to look like [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:The_weather_in_London&oldid=205156049] while the article had been a protected redlink for 16 months, suggesting to me that a consensus at existed at that stage that the article should stay a redlink.  Subsequently, discussion of the article being a soft redirect has in my view failed to reach consensus[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2008_May_26#The_weather_in_London_.E2.86.92_London.23Climate][http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2009_January_25#The_weather_in_London_.E2.86.92_London.23Climate] and for some reason that apparently means the soft redirect has to stay.

== Complete listing ==

Rumping was correct that the former list of deletion discussions was misleading, as it mixed in the various deletion discussions about the [[The weather in London]] and [[Talk:The weather in London]].  I have replaced it with a more comprehensive list of the discussions about this. Cheers,--[[User:Aervanath|Aervanath]] ([[User talk:Aervanath|talk]]) 19:34, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

==Errors==

The "heaviest snow for 2 decades" was experienced in February 2009, i.e. the winter of 2008/2009 not the "Winter of 2010". The article states that London experienced "its lowest temperature on record during the "winter of 2010" and then goes on to state a lower temperature recorded during January 1962. Naturally, neither of these "facts" is cited.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/69.86.130.251|69.86.130.251]] ([[User talk:69.86.130.251|talk]]) 03:14, 19 January 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

==London climate==

Just wondering that the greenwich climate box averages should really be changed to heathrow's avergaes ecause greenwich weather station (I may be wrong) closed down a while ago and is no longer recording data also Heathrow climate averges is more intune with that of most of London.  <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Vidal101|Vidal101]] ([[User talk:Vidal101|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Vidal101|contribs]]) 13:18, 18 March 2013 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Greenwich is still used by the Met Office, its the only station for central London they have, I've just (yet again) reverted falsified climate information by editor "RobertStaines", and have added Heathrow as the primary station on display for London. --[[User:Jacobfrid|Jacobfrid]] ([[User talk:Jacobfrid|talk]]) 23:20, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

<!-- Begin request -->
I've noticed that [[The weather in london]] (with a lowercase 'l'), which was added in order to catch all the actual searches for weather in London which may or may not have happened back when this was a redlink, now targets at [[Geography_of_London#Climate]] (which is a little more detailed than the current redirect target). This one should probably be changed to match. (I assume, looking at relevant discussions, that the reason it's fully-protected is to stop people AfDing it, rather than to stop people changing the content; I suspect the protection's unnecessary, but doubt the page needs to change all that often, so just {{tl|editprotected}}ing this for now.)
