I seem to recall some comments made by someone in the know that
there is extensive IP-based blocking used on wiki.debian.org within
the web server and this sometimes causes collateral damage, i.e.
some people unable even to read the site, let alone modify it.
Unfortunately I can't remember any more details than that.

I was going to say that it could be worth OP's time to create a bug
against the wiki, and I already see this one:

    <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=885433>

I think this would tend to support the possibility of this being
the culprit, though the lack of resolution here does suggest the OP
may have a long road ahead if that is the case.

Cheers,
Andy
