Speedy deletion nomination of Khalo Yasir[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Khalo Yasir requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

November 2023[edit]
Thank you for your work adding new content to Wikipedia. Not all topics are notable (suitable for a stand-alone Wikipedia article). An article you created does not cite sources establishing notability, so it may get deleted. A source shows that the article topic is notable when it:
- contains significant coverage: it addresses the topic directly and in multiple paragraphs of detail. A source with only trivial or off-topic mentions of the subject doesn't count.
- is a reliable source: it has a reliable publication process, or a suitable expert author (look up the reliability of common sources, or discuss). Newspapers and books usually meet this criteria, company and personal websites usually do not.
- is independent of the subject: it isn't produced by the article's subject or someone similarly affiliated with it. For example, these are not independent: the subject's press releases, autobiographies, website, and interviews.
If you can find notability-establishing sources, please add them: more than one is needed unless the applicable subject-specific notability guideline states otherwise. Specific questions can be answered live at the Teahouse help forum. Thank you. Taking Out The Trash (talk) 23:03, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
I am not aware that I was making disruptive edits. I genuinely thought I was bringing good contributions. I was not warned or told about any disruptive edits. Next time I will make sure that I bring something of substance onto a page and verify facts before adding. I did not intend to disrupt, and I do not know what I did to be blocked. There is a lack of details and I received no warning. Gym Gordon (talk) 01:38, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You received messages on this very page. Please do not request unblock until you can tell us what it is that you did wrong and what you will do differently. If you don't know what you did, then you might repeat it if unblocked, so I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 09:16, 21 November 2023 (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.

Request reason:
It seems I was making new pages that were unnecessary, which I did not realize. The pages I made weren't exactly the most famous people, and I promise not to do it again. I plan to compensate for my mistakes by contributing and translating pages. I was not aware that I was making disruptive edits. I genuinely thought I was bringing good contributions. I was not warned or told about any disruptive edits. Next time I will make sure that I bring something of substance onto a page and verify facts before adding. I did not intend to disrupt. There is a lack of details and I received no warning.
Decline reason:
I don't understand this unblock request. You say you did not receive any warnings. I count three warnings on this page, at least one more warning in your edit filter, and two warnings on the deleted articles you created. You acknowledged one of the warnings and responded to the contested deletion. If you thought these were appropriate articles for Wikipedia, I'm afraid Wikipedia isn't the place for you at the moment. You are welcome to try again in a few years, when you can clearly explain what was wrong with these obviously inappropriate articles. Yamla (talk) 13:46, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
I acknowledge that what I did was disruptive because the information and pages I added and created added no benefit and were of useless value. I apologize for the useless things I have put. I acknowledge that my edits were disruptive and will from now on only add factual things of value. I have come to the realization that I should only add things that bring benefit. I have realized that if I want to practice editing, there are probably tools to help me do that and explore Wikipedia without actually disrupting the site. I have now realized all of my edits and pages should have been made in sandbox. I am deeply sorry. I will contribute to Wikipedia's diversity and add factual information that others may disregard. I plan on translating a page soon once I get unblocked. However, I should have paid attention and used the sandbox feature instead. Therefore, this ban could have been avoided if I just used the sandbox feature. Forgive me for being a beginner contributor.

Confirmed block evasion as Mastercoolisnumber7. --Yamla (talk) 16:53, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
Raising Awareness of Lack of Access. I am blocked from contributions so I'll leave this note.[edit]
There is a Wikipedia article titled Wikipedia:Why Wikipedia is not so great the url being https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Why_Wikipedia_is_not_so_great The article mentions: "Wikipedia is not a democracy, and its editors may face numerous restrictions on freedom of speech, including various types of sanctions. Editors can be indefinitely blocked from Wikipedia if their usernames do not conform to Wikipedia's username policy." Ironic how this one isn't considered disruptive editing but here you go. I always thought Wikipedia was diverse. I have a theory that my ban is either due to an opposition towards a certain idea, perspective, or maybe even racism about the fact that I made edits suggesting I either have knowledge of certain cultures or are a part of. But yeah, Wikipedia definitely ain't diverse like I thought. Some administrators definitely engage in censorship. The power structure should be changed to make sure that admins are approved by the top people in Wikipedia whether it be founders, CEO, etc. I sincerely acknowledged my disruptive edits and my mistakes, and I acknowledge my warning now. However, they accuse me of block evasion even though long before this block I had multiple accounts, to be honest I don't recall why. Maybe I forgot about one account or maybe I wanted another account to give myself a restart and become a big contributor. Nonetheless, they act as if I made the other accounts following the ban. It seems the admins must've seen some political statement or perspective they didn't like and banned me for years but used "disruptive editing" as an excuse. There's no reason I shouldn't be unblocked following acknowledging my vandalism, though my intent wasn't so, other than they have other grudges that they do not mention. Lack of accountability and transparency is what I call it. Gym Gordon (talk) 17:38, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.
Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice.
