Speedy deletion nomination of User:Elphas Mashamba/Elphas Mashamba edit

 

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Elphas Mashamba/Elphas Mashamba, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

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.

Request reason:

my account was hacked and you left me with no choice am stuck here please help me unblocking my account so that I can get back my editing rights Elphas Mashamba (talk) 01:40, 26 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

I have no idea what you're talking about.

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
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

  • On UTRS you claimed that you were trying to advertise yourself(which based on your edits, you were), but here you claimed that you were hacked. Which is it? 331dot (talk) 09:17, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

If you don't know what you have done wrong, we can't unblock you. You need to tell what you did wrong, why you won't do it again, and what contributions you want to make. I am declining your request.

That's not why you were blocked. 331dot (talk) 16:53, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

With due respect I now do not have the actual reason why I am blocked I apologize 😔 , that was my fault Elphas Mashamba (talk) 16:58, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Please click "edit" instead of "new section" when posting, to avoid adding unnecessary formatting. The reason given for your block is given in the block notice above: "You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or promotion." 331dot (talk) 17:15, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thanks 😊 am I unblocked now Elphas Mashamba (talk) 17:20, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

No. You need to make another unblock request, that does as I asked above. And please do as I asked immediately above. 331dot (talk) 17:23, 20 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi Please Unblock me edit

217.15.117.120 that is my IP address Elphas Mashamba (talk) 17:43, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

You are blocked directly, the IP address is blocked only because your account is blocked. You will need to make another unblock request for it to be considered. 331dot (talk) 17:48, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Unblock edit

So what am I supposed to do now. I have been begging you guys to unblock me Since January 😭😔😒 Elphas Mashamba (talk) 17:56, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

You are supposed to follow instructions, as you have been asked again and again. If your next post is anything other than a formal unblock request as your block notice instructs, I will remove your ability to edit this page. 331dot (talk) 17:58, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
You should see the word "edit" next to the word "unblock" above. You should also see the word "edit" at the top of this page. Stop clicking "new section" and click either "edit". If you are using a phone to edit, switch the version to the full version instead of the mobile. 331dot (talk) 17:59, 20 September 2019 (UTC) please may you unblock me pleaseReply

Since you are either unable or unwilling to follow the instructions you have been given, I am removing your ability to edit this page. You may use the UTRS system to make an unblock request should you choose to attempt to address the reason for the block. 331dot (talk) 19:56, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
