Hi, I noticed your edits and the addition of the infobox to Mohammed Sulemana's article. Good work. However there were a few errors. No need to add date. All you need to add is the (–) sign. Then also you need to add the Ghana U-20 rather to the national team career not the club team career. Also you used blogs, AshesGyamera.Com and MahamaShaibu.com. Wikipedia does not accept blogs. If you get any information on a blog kindly do a search online and get a reliable source that has published the same thing, then add it. He went for trials in Rio Ave, however the sources do not state that he has signed a deal with the team. Good work overall. I would have to take off the Rio Ave aspect till it is confirmed officially. Ampimd (talk) 19:04, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
Thank You
I've taken notice of that. I'm really grateful. I'll check to do the right thing in future. Sweetabena (talk) 07:23, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Sweetabena. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:42, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
Okpekpewuokpe Torgbuiga Dagadu IX moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Okpekpewuokpe Torgbuiga Dagadu IX, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hi Ampimd, I appreciate your message. Especially the guide you just shared here have been helpful to me in terms of understanding key basic things about editing on wikipedia. I'm really glad for your message. Sweetabena (talk) 07:48, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Great I noticed you do know how to sign articles with your name. You also ping or name someone in a comment or statement to give them a direct notification, by either copying their name for example Sweetabena, or click the @ illustrated as @Sweetabena, mostly that works if you are replying directly to a message the person sent out to you. I am happy to be of help. Ampimd (talk) 08:11, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- If you hover the mouse over my name you would realise it comes out as User:Ampimd, so you can link it as User:Ampimd or Ampimd - which is User:Ampimd|Ampimd then put them into [[.]] Ampimd (talk) 08:24, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
Yes please. Very well noted. Many thanks Ampimd. I have now done the right thing in my earlier statement. You've been helpful Sweetabena (talk) 09:43, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Great! You are a fast learner. Which articles or topics do you have interest in working on? Ampimd (talk) 12:02, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
I have interest working on articles related to Biographies,Sports, Lifestyle, Politics and History. Sweetabena (talk) 09:40, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
- So would you like to work on a project on women's football in Ghana? Also on project on Women in Politics in Ghana? Ampimd (talk) 10:01, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry for the delayed reply to this. I went off for a while because of some issues I had. Yes I would be glad to work on such projects. Do I still have the chance to work on any? Sweetabena (talk) 08:33, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
The article Keala Kanae has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Does not appear to meet WP:GNG based on sources. Included sources penned by contributors, search has not turned up anything better.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ASUKITE 02:38, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Okpekpewuokpe Torgbuiga Dagadu IX
Hello, Sweetabena. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Okpekpewuokpe Torgbuiga Dagadu IX".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 03:20, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is 154.160.18.75. Sweetabena (talk) 00:36, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Procedural decline since, as your account is not directly blocked, there is no block to lift on it. As to the proxy block on your IP, it is a much better option for you to go to WP:IPECPROXY and follow those directions to request IP block exemption by email. — Daniel Case (talk) 07:28, 12 December 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.
Thank youSweetabena (talk) 16:49, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
- It finally worked. Thank you Daniel Case for your suggestion. I was denied on my first attempt to send the email, but I have now been granted IP extension upon my second time sending the email with a proper explanation. I really appreciate. Sweetabena (talk) 08:44, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
Sweetabena (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is 154.160.18.191. I would be grateful if you could assist me on how to get my IP out of a constant block. Any time a date is given for the release of my up, it automatically keeps saying that the IP address has been blocked again and then it extends to another longer period and I am wondering exactly what crime is. Sweetabena (talk) 09:32, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
Decline reason:
If you were not granted an IPBE, there is nothing we can do for you. You last successfully edited on December 10th or thereabouts(depending on your time zone) so I would suggest recreating the conditions you were in that day to be able to edit- it could just be that you need to reset your modem to get an IP that is not blocked. See Template:Blocked p2p proxy. 331dot (talk) 10:12, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Did you follow the instructions provided by Daniel Case above? 331dot (talk) 09:48, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- Yes please I did and the response I got from the email I sent did not address nor provide solution to my situation.Sweetabena (talk) 09:59, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- I've been sorted now. Many thanks 331dot for your concern. I was denied on my first attempt to send the email, but I have now been granted IP extension upon my second time sending the email with a proper explanation.Sweetabena (talk) 08:49, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
- Very good. Happy editing and best wishes to you. 331dot (talk) 09:07, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
Appreciated
Thank you for your contributions. Your enthusiasm is truly a breath of fresh air and very much appreciated. If there is ever any questions you have you are welcome to ask them again at the Teahouse or you may ask directly at my talk page. I wonder if you might want to participate in our Mentorship program, as a mentee, started by the WMF Growth team. Although 100% of new accounts are automatically enrolled it is voluntary for existing users. I am a mentor and a mentee myself. There is no pressure to participate as a mentee, I just thought you might read what it is about and consider it as another avenue of guidance for you. Regardless, happy editing and wishing you all the best. --ARoseWolf 14:04, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
