{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Bbb23 (talk) 18:25, 7 August 2022 (UTC)- worth noting, the option to contest my deleted articles was not available to me as the articles were deleted by the time I got back to them, I never had a chance to save or even make further edits to correct any errors.

Request reason:
Your reason here Hey, long time fan of music here with successful articles and edits in the past, I reached out looking to retrieve my article written last night and make further edits to remove any errors and received a block. I'm here to clear up any problems and learn from my mistakes, also receive any help gaining a better understanding of how to move forward! Would appreciate anyone's assistance up to this point I have been met with nothing but resistance.Witman21 (talk) 18:30, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

This does not address your problems with WP:PROMO and WP:UPE. Yamla (talk) 19:07, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:
As stated before, I am just a fan of the music and do not intend to write anything that would come across promotional. I do not intend to violate any guidelines. I want to help out by sharing the information I have gathered, I understand this may need to be rewritten in a nonbias - non conflicting manner and that is completely understandable, however it was not my intention for the information to come across promotional or as a paid writer. I started this article last night completely off of free will and the love for the music. I was just modeling text for the page after other successful similar musicians to Wyatt Coleman. Being careful to not just copy and paste from the articles written about him, the final page looked very similar to Mick Jenkins when I finished minus the discography section. Hope this helps.

Decline reason:
You didn't pick this musician at random to edit about. That, plus some other clues, leads me to conclude that the reason for block is valid. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 20:01, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

Definitely not random, I was inspired! Just learning the platform. I do understand the initial block is because of my ignorance of the platform. I was acting out of fear of losing the article I had worked on. Witman21 (talk) 20:09, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:
hey after a long day of confusion and misunderstanding and a headache at this point I am attempting to clear this up again, Last night I created my first account and first article on wikipedia, I went to publish the article and came back today to see the article had been deleted through Speedy Deletion.. (this is where everything became new to me because I have only made edits in the past on existing articles and never went through the process of making an account or publishing an article) I began working to figure out how to retrieve the text/article I had written, I reached out to the IP that was attached to taking my article down because I couldn't find the the "contest my article" button, or any of the information I had written. My interaction with the IP ended up getting me blocked indefinitely after submitting three messages trying get my text back. I no longer am concerned about the article as I realize i will not retrieve it at this point and would just like to appeal the blocking of my account. I have no intentions to make any further edits or publish anything. The block is unnecessary, I realize and understand all the guidelines and as stated above did not intend to break any of them. In the future, I plan on teaming up with someone with more experience than myself with things like this to prevent something like this from happening again. Witman21 (talk) 23:02, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Sorry, I'm afraid this just does not address the reasons for the block. Again, "teaming up" sounds like WP:sockpuppetry. That would destroy any hope of getting you unblocked. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 03:32, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

- "Remember, our motto and our invitation to the newcomer is be bold. We have a set of rules, standards, and traditions, but they must not be applied in such a way as to thwart the efforts of newcomers who take that invitation at face value. A newcomer brings a wealth of ideas, creativity and experience from other areas that, current rules and standards aside, have the potential to better our community and Wikipedia as a whole. It may be that the rules and standards need revising or expanding; perhaps what the newcomer is doing "wrong" may ultimately improve

Request reason:
I did not know being a fan is a COI. My intention remains the same in wanting to achieve unblock to rid this talk page of all of this nonsense. I felt I was contributing something good to the platform and have no intentions on sock puppetry either, just seeking guidance in how I could've contributed meaningfully. Feel as if this entire interaction there has been little consideration for me as a new user. Lots of microaggressions being thrown around and assumptions turning into projections towards me as a user. Witman21 (talk) 10:09 am, 10 August 2022, last Wednesday (2 days ago) (UTC−4)
Decline reason:
I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
- the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
- the block is no longer necessary because you
- understand what you have been blocked for,
- will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
- will make useful contributions instead.
Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information.. Your avenue of appeal is via WP:UTRS. Please follow the instructions there. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 18:17, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

- The repetitive unblock requests and other comments have become disruptive; I have therefore revoked TPA.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:19, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

- hey, just curious does this give me the right to archive/clean up my talk page now? Witman21 (talk) 19:59, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- You may not remove declined unblock declines while blocked. Traditionally, the only reason to restore talk page access is for the user to request unblocking. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:03, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I think one more edit that is not a successful unblock request will result in loss of talk page access. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:05, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
