This is the correct mailing list.

In general we allow all Tor exit nodes to access the wiki regardless
of how spammy they are.
It is hard to tell how you got this error without knowing your exit
node at the time.
If you are still getting the problem, you can share your exit node
with the wiki admins via wiki@debian.org and we will investigate,
there may be a bug in how we enable Tor exit nodes to bypass the
blocklists.
In the meantime, you can switch to a new exit node easily in Tor
Browser. Just restart it, start a new identity or start a new circuit.
