Edo State
Hello. Your recent edit to Edo State appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 20:39, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

- I simply don't believe you and that's all I'm going to say. Graham87 (talk) 12:10, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, Graham87!
- I understand trust is earned over a period of time. I joined Wikipedia over a year ago on the notion of helping contribute to some of all human knowledge, bridging Content Gap and contributing reliable, accurate and verifiable information.
- In the first few months, I was largely passive until I was reading a medical laboratory info that I saw the citation needed tag. I made efforts to get it fixed and ever since, most my edits revolve around fixing citation tag until recently I learnt how to add Wiki links. Seeing (on my User home page) the little efforts I have made and how people all over the world benefits by reading it gives me joy and the zeal to continue.
- I would implore you to assume good faith and give me a second chance. I promise not to abuse these privileges going forward. Thanks for your time and consideration. Regards! Lazborn (talk) 14:06, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

Your editing pattern is highly suspicious. You've been making mass semi-automated edits of little utility. Graham87 (talk) 12:55, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
- Good day @Graham87!
- Thank you for finding your time to reply my messages. Despite you saying you "don't believe" me, I would once again implore you to good faith in any mistake I must have made unintentionally and plead you kindly reconsider and unblock my account.
- I would be glad if you could explain what "mass semi-automated edits" mean as most of my edit are all manually done on phone. Thanks for your time and consideration.
- Regards! Lazborn (talk) 18:56, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- No. If you were actually doing all those edits manually, it means you must be far too incompetent to edit here. Also see below. Graham87 (talk) 06:08, 4 January 2024 (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.

- I've just gotten your email; I've removed email access too now. The short answer to your email is ... no. Graham87 (talk) 16:29, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Unblocked
Hi Lazborn, I've just e-mailed you. Bradv has unblocked you. I apologise on behalf of the community for how you were treated. In case you want to give Wikipedia another chance, I've very belatedly placed a "welcome" template at the top of this page; it links to pages explaining our guidelines and rules as well as to places to ask for help. I also note from reading above that you were editing on a phone and having some trouble figuring out links and references; did you realise that it's possible to switch to the easier desktop interface on a smartphone? (This page is directed at experienced editors, but you may find it useful for the practical information. Again, I'm sorry, and I hope you do come back. Yngvadottir (talk) 02:52, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- Lazborn, unfortunately, you were blocked by an administrator who has largely lost the trust of the Wikipedia community. I very much regret that you were mistreated this way, and I hope that you will consider returning to editing. If you need any assistance with your return, I will be happy to help you. I am sure that Yngvadottir feels the same way. Cullen328 (talk) 03:42, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for posting this, Yngvadottir. Lazborn, I hope you read this and come back to editing. You deserve better than this. – bradv 05:00, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
