Well you say you can use a VPN, but you may often see that you’re not able to edit using a VPN IP if that IP block has been used for vandalism in the past. So then you’d have to potentially revert to a coffee shop or library which would still identify your location.
Point of clarification: I said that you can’t use a VPN, and that’s because those IPs are blocked. As noted, you need to ask for a special exception, which for most people isn’t navigable and may not even be granted without a good stated reason and/or trust built up through good edits.

Oh whoops, my bad I must have been reading too quickly. Thanks for clarifying!
I was surprised I was blocked from editing even after logging in. They do hate some IP blocks.
Make a list of necessary changes then go to your local cafe.
Sounds like a nice plan.
