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 35.172.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪JJMC89‬ 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.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:20, 2 July 2025. Your current IP address is 35.172.195.215.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Diocese of Oslo''' is the [[Church of Norway]]'s [[Diocese|bishopric]] for the municipalities of [[Oslo]], [[Asker]] and [[Bærum]]. It is one of Norway's five traditional bishoprics and was founded around the year 1070.

==History==
Oslo was established as a diocese in 1068. It was originally a [[suffragan]] of the archdiocese of [[Hamburg-Bremen]], from 1104 on of that of [[Diocese of Lund|Lund]] and starting from 1152 on of [[Archdiocese of Nidaros|Nidaros]]. It then covered the (modern) counties of [[Oslo]], [[Akershus]], [[Buskerud]] (except [[Hallingdal]]), [[Hedmark]] (except the northern part of [[Østerdalen]]), [[Oppland]] (except [[Valdres]]), [[Telemark]], [[Vestfold]] and [[Østfold]], and the province of [[Bohuslän]], and the parishes of [[Idre]] and [[Särna]].

The [[Ancient Diocese of Hamar|Diocese of Hamar]] was established and separated from Oslo in 1152, but it was again merged with Oslo in 1541 (together with the northern part of Østerdalen from [[Diocese of Nidaros]]). The regions of Hallingdal and Valdres were transferred from [[Diocese of Stavanger]] to Oslo in 1631. (But Oslo had to give the upper part of Telemark to Stavanger in return.) The parishes of Idre and Särna were lost to Sweden in 1644, and the province of Bohuslän was lost in 1658. Hamar (with Hedmark and Oppland) was again separated from Oslo in 1864. The rest of Telemark was transferred to ''Diocese of Kristiansand'' (see [[Diocese of Agder og Telemark]]) the same year. The [[Diocese of Tunsberg]] (with Vestfold and Buskerud) was established and separated from Oslo in 1948. The [[Diocese of Borg]] (with Akershus and Østfold) was established and separated from Oslo in 1969.

Today the Diocese of Oslo only covers the county of Oslo and the municipalities of [[Asker]] and [[Bærum]] in Akershus.
