SHISHIR DUA: Hi, I'm pleased to see someone with so much enthusiasm. But I do agree with GiantSnowman that it's a bit early for you to be seeking adminship. I assume you have read the Advice for RfA candidates? Note there that six months is the absolute minimum length of time on Wikipedia that most editors expect a candidate to have, and that an admin is expected to be familiar with Wikipedia policy and conventions; an important part of the job is explaining it to others. You need to start signing all your posts on noticeboards and talk pages (either type four tildes, ~~~~, or click the symbol for signature), and since you have had a lot of articles either PRODded or nominated at AfD, your knowledge of our notability criteria appears to be weak; start with those and go from there in learning about how we do things and why. I suggest you then ask for advice at this page—also mentioned on the Advice for candidates page—experienced Wikipedians can advise you there on ways to improve your editing before running for adminship. Finally, I looked at your user page and I note your date of birth. This is a piece of information you may not want to have posted publicly for privacy reasons (if you want, an admin can delete it so that only other admins, or only those with the "suppress" right, can see it in the page history; just ask for whichever you want). In any case, we have a page of advice for younger Wikipedians; have you read it? Yngvadottir ( talk) 16:43, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
Please go through WP:CS to get educated about citation and how to add a citation in an article. You recent edit at the ISL 2019-20 articles id shows not a proper way of citing source.

US Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |

Hi SHISHIR DUA, I wanted to explain why I reverted your edit here. The sentence in the Wikipedia article talked about an investigation from 2006 carried out by a Swiss bank, while the source you added described a different study. It might be relevant to add something about that study as well, because it is much newer (and it still includes Oslo), but the source you added can't be added to the article as it is written now. I hope that makes sense. Regards, -- bonadea contributions talk 07:12, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi, as I pointed out the first time you nominated it, List of 2019–20 Indian Super League season roster changes should be nominated as a featured list not a good article if you wish to seek promotion as this is a separate criteria for list articles.

Hello. Please read the documentation for infobox cricketer. Of note is that per the infobox documentation we only add teams when the player has actually played a match for them. That means we don't add them if they were just in a squad or if they might play for them in the following year.
As an example of why this is important, players may be injured prior to a tournament and be unable to play in it. Or the tournament may be cancelled entirely.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Víctor Pérez Alonso a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Víctor Pérez (footballer). This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 16:07, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi SHISHIR DUA, thank you for creating the article Bo Augustsson a few months ago! Unfortunately, there were some factual errors in the article – some that were probably caused by automatic translations from the Swedish article, or misunderstandings of what that article said, and some that were a bit odd. For instance, where does the information that he was born in Gärds Köpinge come from? It is a very tiny little village in the same region of Sweden (but not the same municipality) as Mala, where several different sources sources say he grew up – but none of them mention Gärds Köpinge at all. I have spent some time looking for other sources for this, but can't find a single one, other than websites copying their info straight from Wikipedia. I also wonder where you've seen his birth date, which has no source – unless it is in the hd.se source which I don't have access to. Anyway, I've fixed the errors, removed some unsourced claims and added some other sourced information, so other than the birth date I don't think the article has any particular issues right now. Happy editing, -- bonadea contributions talk 14:20, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I have seen your comments here-and-there, and I wanted to ask this earlier but couldn't. Do you use some sort of software for grammer/vocabulary? Like a thesaurus?
Also, even though not mandatory, we try to keep conversations on English wikipedia formal, and "global", in a way that would be understood by the editors all around the world. Some of your sentenses/comments are over the top. If possible, kindly try to use formal/plain English. Regards, —usernamekiran (talk) 22:25, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

The fourth round of the competition has finished, with 865 points being required to qualify for the final round, nearly twice as many points as last year. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants with 598 and 605 points being eliminated, and all but two of the contestants who reached the final round having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were
Between them, contestants achieved 14 featured articles, 14 featured lists, 2 featured pictures, 87 good articles, 90 DYK entries, 75 ITN entries, 95 featured article candidate reviews and 81 good article reviews. Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Guild of Copy Editors September 2020 Newsletter
Hello and welcome to the September GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since June 2020. Current and upcoming events
September Drive: Our current backlog-elimination drive is open until 23:59 on 30 September (UTC) and is open to all copy editors. Sign up today! Election reminder: our end-of-year Election of Coordinators opens for nominations on 1 December. Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them here. Drive and Blitz reports
June Blitz: An uncorrected typo (even copy editors make copy editing mistakes!) led to an eight-day "leap blitz" from 14 to 21 June, focusing on requests and articles tagged in May. 19 participating editors claimed 54 copy edits. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. July Drive: Over 750,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event, keeping pace with the previous three self-isolated drives. Of the 38 people who signed up, 30 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. August Blitz: From 16 to 22 August, we copy edited articles tagged in June and July 2020 and requests. 12 participating editors completed 37 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. Other news
June election: Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Baffle gab1978, Tdslk, Twofingered Typist, and first-time coordinator Puddleglum2.0. Reidgreg took a break after serving for a couple years. Thanks to everyone who participated! Progress report: As of 01:33, 18 September 2020 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors had processed 532 requests since 1 January and there were 38 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (see monthly progress graph above). Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you!

UTRS appeal #36164 is now close. My response is copied below.
I'm sorry, but as you have repeatedly inadequately addressed the reasons for your block, and by a consensus of reviewing admins, you are now ineligible for consideration at UTRS until six months from now. This has been an open-book test. All the policies and guidelines relating to correcting the problems you encountered and created are there for the reading. Even so, I see no indication of you actually understanding what to do and what to not do. It comes across that you don't really understand the manner in which your edits were wrong, so you cannot help but repeat them. Please consider spending that time constructively and collegially editing other Wikimedia projects and other versions of Wikipedia. Please do not evade your block or use sock puppets. After at least six months of constructive, collegial editing have passed, you may again request unblocking. Please describe in greater detail how your editing was unconstructive and how you would edit constructively if unblocked Please read Wikipedia's Guide to appealing blocks for more information.

Having read through your case, I'm going to have to decide against unblocking at this time. The issue isn't that you have made insufficient confessions, but rather that you haven't demonstrated a clear understanding of what you did wrong beyond name dropping a few policies that were quoted at you. At this point, I would suggest that you take the standard offer and come back to request an unblock after 6 months. You can increase your chances of the unblock request being accepted at that point by contributing constructively to other WMF projects in the meantime. signed, Rosguill talk 18:39, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

The 2020 WikiCup has come to an end, with the final round going down to the wire. Our new Champion is Lee Vilenski ( submissions), the runner-up last year, who was closely followed by Gog the Mild ( submissions). In the final round, Lee achieved 4 FAs and 30 GAs, mostly on cue sport topics, while Gog achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on important battles and wars, which earned him a high number of bonus points. The Rambling Man ( submissions) was in third place with 4 FAs and 8 GAs on football topics, with Epicgenius ( submissions) close behind with 19 GAs and 16 DYK's, his interest being the buildings of New York.
The other finalists were Hog Farm ( submissions), HaEr48 ( submissions), Harrias ( submissions) and Bloom6132 ( submissions). The final round was very productive, and besides 15 FAs, contestants achieved 75 FAC reviews, 88 GAs and 108 GAN reviews. Altogether, Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors all through the contest. Well done everyone!
All those who reached the final will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or in the event of a tie, to the overall leader in this field.
Next year's competition will begin on 1 January. You are invited to sign up to participate; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to see you all in the 2021 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

Please unblock me, its my earnest request. Now I solemn that I've developed competence on the advice of you and other wikipedians. Sir please unblock me. Please for the last time unblock me. This time I mean it. I went to thread to read and reconsolidate what is required [ https://en.wikipedia.org/?oldid=983187059#Over_exhaustive_and_indecent_behaviour. I've attempt'd every sorta of indecency caused in the context of hat collecting behavior. inappropriate talk page messages to female editors ,canvassing and confront'd with it.

You indicate that you've worked on other wikiprojects, but since 2020-10-12 when you were blocked here, I see no substantial set of contributions to another project, there. A few edits, but nothing substantial. Maybe I missed a substantial set of edits, and you can point us to this set of constructive edits? Yamla ( talk) 19:52, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again.

You have created a large number of articles about non-notable footballers. Please review WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL.

SHISHIR DUA: Hi, I'm pleased to see someone with so much enthusiasm. But I do agree with GiantSnowman that it's a bit early for you to be seeking adminship. I assume you have read the Advice for RfA candidates? Note there that six months is the absolute minimum length of time on Wikipedia that most editors expect a candidate to have, and that an admin is expected to be familiar with Wikipedia policy and conventions; an important part of the job is explaining it to others. You need to start signing all your posts on noticeboards and talk pages (either type four tildes, ~~~~, or click the symbol for signature), and since you have had a lot of articles either PRODded or nominated at AfD, your knowledge of our notability criteria appears to be weak; start with those and go from there in learning about how we do things and why. I suggest you then ask for advice at this page—also mentioned on the Advice for candidates page—experienced Wikipedians can advise you there on ways to improve your editing before running for adminship. Finally, I looked at your user page and I note your date of birth. This is a piece of information you may not want to have posted publicly for privacy reasons (if you want, an admin can delete it so that only other admins, or only those with the "suppress" right, can see it in the page history; just ask for whichever you want). In any case, we have a page of advice for younger Wikipedians; have you read it? Yngvadottir ( talk) 16:43, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
Please go through WP:CS to get educated about citation and how to add a citation in an article. You recent edit at the ISL 2019-20 articles id shows not a proper way of citing source. I would ask you please go through the guidelines, it will help you in future editing. Thank you. Dey subrata ( talk) 22:13, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

We have a policy of protecting editors' safety by hiding such information if they share it. I'm really sorry about having to suppress your edits, and I know it's annoying, but it's for the best. Please don't re-add the information.

US Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |

Hi greetings, I would like to share you some information about
indentation in

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:SD7, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.
You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.
If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Hi SHISHIR DUA, I wanted to explain why I reverted your edit here. The sentence in the Wikipedia article talked about an investigation from 2006 carried out by a Swiss bank, while the source you added described a different study. It might be relevant to add something about that study as well, because it is much newer (and it still includes Oslo), but the source you added can't be added to the article as it is written now. I hope that makes sense. Regards, -- bonadea contributions talk 07:12, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi SHISHIR DUA. I wanted to leave a note about reverting this edit you made to Aldonza Alfonso de León. It appears you had copied much of the content from the Spanish language article. I appreciate your attempt to improve the article, but it did break many templates, and looked quite messy. I welcome you to continue to contribute to the page, but please use the page preview before publishing any changes, to ensure nothing breaks when you add content.
Please feel free to reach out with questions. I also welcome you to visit the Wikipedia Teahouse for advice or questions. = paul2520 ( talk) 19:48, 27 November 2019 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Juan Mera (footballer). Since you had some involvement with the Juan Mera (footballer) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. S A H A 14:27, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi, as I pointed out the first time you nominated it, List of 2019–20 Indian Super League season roster changes should be nominated as a featured list not a good article if you wish to seek promotion as this is a separate criteria for list articles. However, I would ensure you understand the criteria before doing so, in its current form I don't believe it would pass. You have next to no actual prose included.

Alright guy thanks for pointing out the requirements of article SHISHIR DUA ( talk) 09:43, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
Hello. Please read the documentation for infobox cricketer. Of note is that per the infobox documentation we only add teams when the player has actually played a match for them. That means we don't add them if they were just in a squad or if they might play for them in the following year.
As an example of why this is important, players may be injured prior to a tournament and be unable to play in it. Or the tournament may be cancelled entirely.
Please ensure that you follow the requirements of the infobox documentation Thank you. Blue Square Thing ( talk) 06:09, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Víctor Pérez Alonso a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Víctor Pérez (footballer). This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 16:07, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi SHISHIR DUA, thank you for creating the article Bo Augustsson a few months ago! Unfortunately, there were some factual errors in the article – some that were probably caused by automatic translations from the Swedish article, or misunderstandings of what that article said, and some that were a bit odd. For instance, where does the information that he was born in Gärds Köpinge come from? It is a very tiny little village in the same region of Sweden (but not the same municipality) as Mala, where several different sources sources say he grew up – but none of them mention Gärds Köpinge at all. I have spent some time looking for other sources for this, but can't find a single one, other than websites copying their info straight from Wikipedia. I also wonder where you've seen his birth date, which has no source – unless it is in the hd.se source which I don't have access to. Anyway, I've fixed the errors, removed some unsourced claims and added some other sourced information, so other than the birth date I don't think the article has any particular issues right now. Happy editing, -- bonadea contributions talk 14:20, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Also, even though not mandatory, we try to keep conversations on English wikipedia formal, and "global", in a way that would be understood by the editors all around the world.

The fourth round of the competition has finished, with 865 points being required to qualify for the final round, nearly twice as many points as last year. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants with 598 and 605 points being eliminated, and all but two of the contestants who reached the final round having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were
Between them, contestants achieved 14 featured articles, 14 featured lists, 2 featured pictures, 87 good articles, 90 DYK entries, 75 ITN entries, 95 featured article candidate reviews and 81 good article reviews. Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs!

Guild of Copy Editors September 2020 Newsletter
Hello and welcome to the September GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since June 2020. Current and upcoming events
September Drive: Our current backlog-elimination drive is open until 23:59 on 30 September (UTC) and is open to all copy editors. Sign up today! Election reminder: our end-of-year Election of Coordinators opens for nominations on 1 December. Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them here. Drive and Blitz reports
June Blitz: An uncorrected typo (even copy editors make copy editing mistakes!) led to an eight-day "leap blitz" from 14 to 21 June, focusing on requests and articles tagged in May. 19 participating editors claimed 54 copy edits. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. July Drive: Over 750,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event, keeping pace with the previous three self-isolated drives. Of the 38 people who signed up, 30 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. August Blitz: From 16 to 22 August, we copy edited articles tagged in June and July 2020 and requests. 12 participating editors completed 37 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. Other news
June election: Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Baffle gab1978, Tdslk, Twofingered Typist, and first-time coordinator Puddleglum2.0. Reidgreg took a break after serving for a couple years. Thanks to everyone who participated! Progress report: As of 01:33, 18 September 2020 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors had processed 532 requests since 1 January and there were 38 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (see monthly progress graph above). Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Baffle gab1978, Puddleglum2.0, Tdslk and Twofingered Typist. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from

It comes across that you don't really understand the manner in which your edits were wrong, so you cannot help but repeat them. Please consider spending that time constructively and collegially editing other Wikimedia projects and other versions of Wikipedia. Please do not evade your block or use sock puppets. After at least six months of constructive, collegial editing have passed, you may again request unblocking. Please describe in greater detail how your editing was unconstructive and how you would edit constructively if unblocked Please read Wikipedia's Guide to appealing blocks for more information.

Request reason:
The block was intended to counter my indecent edits, I know, Sir I won't edit without any reliable sources, won't pick up quarrel and won't be involved in 3 revert rule.

Decline reason:
Having read through your case, I'm going to have to decide against unblocking at this time. The issue isn't that you have made insufficient confessions, but rather that you haven't demonstrated a clear understanding of what you did wrong beyond name dropping a few policies that were quoted at you. At this point, I would suggest that you take the standard offer and come back to request an unblock after 6 months. You can increase your chances of the unblock request being accepted at that point by contributing constructively to other WMF projects in the meantime. signed, Rosguill talk 18:39, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Sir, is there any other way SHISHIR DUA 05:17, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

The 2020 WikiCup has come to an end, with the final round going down to the wire. Our new Champion is Lee Vilenski ( submissions), the runner-up last year, who was closely followed by Gog the Mild ( submissions). In the final round, Lee achieved 4 FAs and 30 GAs, mostly on cue sport topics, while Gog achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on important battles and wars, which earned him a high number of bonus points. The Rambling Man ( submissions) was in third place with 4 FAs and 8 GAs on football topics, with Epicgenius ( submissions) close behind with 19 GAs and 16 DYK's, his interest being the buildings of New York.
The other finalists were Hog Farm ( submissions), HaEr48 ( submissions), Harrias ( submissions) and Bloom6132 ( submissions). The final round was very productive, and besides 15 FAs, contestants achieved 75 FAC reviews, 88 GAs and 108 GAN reviews. Altogether, Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors all through the contest. Well done everyone!
All those who reached the final will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or in the event of a tie, to the overall leader in this field.
Next year's competition will begin on 1 January. You are invited to sign up to participate; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to see you all in the 2021 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

You indicate that you've worked on other wikiprojects, but since 2020-10-12 when you were blocked here, I see no substantial set of contributions to another project, there. A few edits, but nothing substantial. Maybe I missed a substantial set of edits, and you can point us to this set of constructive edits? Yamla ( talk) 19:52, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
