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 44.195.0.0/16 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.

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 09:46, 11 January 2025.

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.

((Refimprove|date=March 2014))
[[Image:Beaverriverpamap.png|thumb|Mahoning Valley in [[Northeast Ohio]] and [[Western Pennsylvania]]]]
The '''Mahoning Valley''' is a geographic [[valley]] encompassing [[Northeast Ohio]] and a small portion of [[Western Pennsylvania]] that drains into the [[Mahoning River]]. According to information at the bottom of Page 321 in a publication<ref>((cite web | url=https://www.sos.state.oh.us/sos/upload/publications/election/fedroster2009/HistoricalAppendix.pdf | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130712062648/https://www.sos.state.oh.us/sos/upload/publications/election/fedroster2009/HistoricalAppendix.pdf | url-status=dead | archive-date=12 July 2013 | title=Ohio County Name Origins | publisher=Ohio Secretary of State | access-date=25 February 2019))</ref> by the [[Ohio]] [[Ohio_Secretary_of_State|Secretary of State's Office]], the river name comes from an Indian word meaning “at the licks.”

==Geography==
Downstream of [[Youngstown, Ohio]] through [[Struthers,_Ohio|Struthers]] and [[Lowellville,_Ohio|Lowellville]] in Ohio and [[Edinburg,_Pennsylvania|Edinburg]] in Pennsylvania, the river runs through a significant valley. In contrast and notwithstanding some shallow reservoirs and short waterfalls, the river upstream of there flowing through [[Newton_Falls,_Ohio|Newton Falls]] and [[Warren, Ohio|Warren]] encounters less relief in the ground and the terrain is largely flat right up to the riverbank. Therefore, the term "Mahoning Valley" is generally applied locally only to the lower portion of the drainage unless addressing the [[Youngstown–Warren–Boardman metropolitan area|Youngstown–Warren, OH-PA Combined Statistical Area]] which is also often referred to colloquially as the "Mahoning Valley" for the purposes of referring to issues such as job opportunities and housing markets.

==Other places named Mahoning Valley==
There are also several other locales, most in the state of [[Pennsylvania]], where the term "Mahoning Valley" are applied. There are four townships in [[Indiana County, Pennsylvania|Indiana County]] that include the name "Mahoning": [[East Mahoning Township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania|East]], [[West Mahoning Township, Pennsylvania|West]], [[North Mahoning Township, Pennsylvania|North]], and [[South Mahoning Township, Pennsylvania|South]] Mahoning Townships near [[Mahoning_Creek_(Allegheny_River_tributary)|Mahoning Creek]] which flows into the [[Allegheny River]] north of [[Templeton,_Pennsylvania|Templeton]]. 

There is also [[Mahoning Township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania]], downstream on the same creek, [[Mahoning Township, Montour County, Pennsylvania]], where there is another [[Mahoning_Creek_(Susquehanna_River_tributary)|Mahoning Creek]] which flows into the [[Susquehanna River]] near [[Danville, Pennsylvania|Danville]], and [[Mahoning Township, Carbon County, Pennsylvania]], on yet another [[Mahoning_Creek_(Lehigh_River_tributary)|Mahoning Creek]] which flows into the [[Lehigh River]] at [[Lehighton,_Pennsylvania|Lehighton]] and from there into the [[Delaware River]].  Near these communities are various businesses such as a nursing home, golf course, race track, cinema, butcher shop, mini-storage, and auto parts store, that have incorporated "Mahoning Valley" into their name. There is also Mahoning Valley Christian Camp near [[Rushville, Indiana]].
