June 2020[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Junior5a. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Habesha peoples—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. ~ Junior5a (Talk) Cont 23:15, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Silver Spring, Maryland, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:47, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Dear Wikipedia, please unblock me, I do not have multiple Wikipedia accounts and I have cited all of my sources when contributing to Wikipedia. If you’re going to block me and delete all my hard work can you at least revert the Template:Ethnic groups in Ethiopia to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Ethnic_groups_in_Ethiopia&oldid=962764574 and Template:Ethnic groups in Eritrea to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Ethnic_groups_in_Eritrea&oldid=962751199 . I worked really hard on these and they all show accurate information by any standard. The citations for the information is found within the respective pages found in template (I don’t believe that I have to have in text citations for template, correct me if I am wrong). The information in these two templates are accurate, just please revert them back. Why do you have to delete everything I wrote, because I made a few mistakes in citing sources, I went back and fixed the mistakes after an admin told me to fix them ? This seems like overkill. Another issue is that someone keep deleting my contributions to the Habesha peoples article on Wikipedia, here is a link to my contributions https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Habesha_peoples&oldid=962751042 they are in no way violations of Wikipedia because I have sourced all information that I personally have added, I am not responsible for mistaken citations for contributions from others that came before me.

Decline reason:

Once again, you've failed to address the issue that got you blocked. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 06:56, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]


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.

Hi @Magnolia677:!, can you help me with this. I eventually fixed my mistakes you told me about and added citations to the pages. I fixed those mistakes, why is this happening to me? They were only a few mistakes that I eventually corrected.
