Hello, dear friend, I would be very grateful if you could revive the Razmjoo page again Abarz54 ( talk) 22:48, 26 February 2024 (UTC) [1]
Hi! I'm a bit confused about what precipitated this block. My understanding is that blocks are only to be handed out when no other solution will do, so I am curious under what reason listed at Wikipedia:WHYBLOCK you carried out this sanction, and why a less disruptive result could not have been achieved through other means, such as, for example, simply informing the user in question that their comment was unnecessarily flippant. Is there some history I am unaware of here? Best regards ---- Licks-rocks ( talk) 15:13, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
Sandstein, I understand why you felt the block necessary based on your interpretation that this was an attack on the nom. of that AfD, but in view of the very clear evidence that this was no such thing, and merely a misunderstanding from a slightly unclear phrasing, could I ask that you lift the block? I don't know Tewdar's thoughts on this but my own are this: blocks leave a trail in the block log, and lifting the block would show a recognition that the block was over a misunderstanding/poor phrasing, and nothing more. Although short, simply allowing it to lapse without lifting it will leave no such trace. That can matter. Blocks also chase editors away. Sometimes those are bad editors, but a review of Tewdar's recent work would show he has recently created one of the most complete and carefully sourced articles on a matter of history that I can recall seeing. Losing an editor such as this over a misunderstood comment would be a grave loss to Wikipedia. Thus, if you could see your way to lifting this block, without having to take it through formal review, I think that would be a net benefit to the encylopaedia. Many thanks for your consideration.

Perhaps you could clarify that consensus not to delete refers to the new, rewritten version? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 22:39, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrative action review regarding an action which you performed. Thank you. Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk) 22:54, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
It says here on Wikipedia:Editing restrictions/Archive that If at any time a user listed here returns to active editing, their restriction should be removed from the archive and added back to the main list, Does this mean that I can remove myself from this list now? If not are people's names ever removed after a period of time? Davidgoodheart ( talk) 22:13, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
