The reason given is this:
Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "<a href="/wiki/User:Melvis" title="User:Melvis">Melvis</a>". The reason given for Melvis's block is: "Sockpuppet. Only edits are VfD votes, user page, and a dozen minor tweaks.".

Innocent?
Sometimes IP ranges or shared proxies are blocked from editing Wikipedia. This means that lots of innocent people can't edit. If this is the case, it should be explained in the reason given above.
Also, some individual dynamic IP addresses may be blocked, usually for a 24 hour period. Occasionally, users with dynamic IPs will be blocked accidentally, due to that fact that their present IP was previously used by a blocked user.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. If this problem affects you repeatedly, and you would like to help us resolve this issue, you will need to contact a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators" title="Wikipedia:Administrators">Wikipedia administrator</a> and your <a href="/wiki/Internet_service_provider" title="Internet service provider">internet service provider</a> (ISP). The administrator should be able to obtain the time, date, and IP address used for the inappropriate behaviour in question, and describe what the problem was. You can then pass this information on to your ISP, explaining that you are unable to edit Wikipedia due to the inappropriate actions of another person using this ISP, and ask them to remedy the problem.

Just reading?
You are not blocked from reading pages, only from editing them. If you were only intending to read a page and are seeing this message, you probably followed a red link. These are links to pages that do not exist, so they take users to an editing screen. You should have no problem if you follow only blue links.
