FOLU AGOI
Hello Oluwa2Chainz,
I will like to know the reason why you have flagged the new living biography: Folu Agoi I have created. Well, I think the problem with the page is that I have been editing regoriously since yesterday that it was created but with the 7days grace of a new published biography, I don't think you should flag it. I have now provided a least three references for the article.
I am willing to take correction if there is any at all but I find flagging frustrating as you know that gathering data on a living person is not an easy job with Wikipedia specifications.
I have improved the article with new sources.
Please check and let me know what you think.

Hello Oluwa2Chainz, do help improve article. The subject is pretty popular in the entrepreneurship space in Nigeria and there are many inquiries and searches. Especially as she is the codirector of Startup Grind, the notable entrepreneurship community. Analyze critically and share tips to help improve the article.

Removal Of My Addition to Lagos under sleep section
Hi, Thanks for reaching out. I'm quite confused about why my link would be considered promotional being as there is a very similar link on that page. kindly provide a clearer definition of what is classified as promotional because after reading the guidelines it would seem the other links are also promotional and you have only removed mine due to some affiliations you have. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Osa1234 (talk • contribs) 17:01, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

- Velella, your suspicion is false and I dare you to bring up convincing proofs to back up your suspicion about me being a sock. For the records I have been on this project for over 2 years and I know the consequences of creating sock accounts. The previous socks you pointed out were blocked by JamesBWatson following an SPI started by me.
- if you believe you were blocked unjustly, why don't you appeal through the right channels? There might be a patrolling admin that will see things from your perspective. It was Checkuser that associated your ip address with that of those vandals/socks, it has nothing to do with Velella. Velella didn't present you as a sock in his initial submission. Putting blame on an innocent editor will complicate the case. I suspect you were using Globacom to access the internet. Darreg (talk) 20:47, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
WikiCup 2018
So the 2017 WikiCup has come to an end. Congratulations to the winner, to the other finalists and to all those who took part. 177 contestants signed up, more than usual, but not all of them submitted entries in the first round. Were editors attracted by the cash prizes offered for the first time this year, or were these irrelevant? Do the rules and scoring need changing for the 2018 WikiCup? If you have a view on these or other matters, why not join in the WikiCup discussion about next year's contest?

Request for unblock
Oluwa2Chainz (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
. .
To Versace1608, Darreg and Mahveotm, your concern towards this issue is highly appreciated. Thank You.Notes:
- In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
- Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.
If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:
{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=I am making this appeal due to my passion for this project and the pressure to prove my innocence. An editor with over 500 created articles should know that sock puppetry is what the community frowns at. No? I edit from Nigeria and the IP service provided by my ISP shows "Suspected Network Sharing Device" i.e a public IP address of a router with more than one device behind it. After this observation, it dawned on me that I surely must have been sharing the same IP with several accounts on here. I must admit that I began to fear for a situation like this ever since my IP got affected following the block on Wikicology before I was given the IP-exempt user right after an appeal. I have seen some usernames popping up and I am being accused to be the owner of those accounts which is, to me, quite ''laughable''; but I won't blame the CUs anyway. . . To [[User:Versace1608|Versace1608]], [[User:Darreg|Darreg]] and [[User:Mahveotm|Mahveotm]], your concern towards this issue is highly appreciated. Thank You. |3 = ~~~~}}

- This is a CU-block. Pinging Berean Hunter as the blocking admin. GABgab 19:28, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
- For what it's worth- and bearing in mind I don't think we ever directly interacted- I'd just like to put it on the record that, patrolling the various "List of-" pages regarding Nigerians as I do (I think they're all watchlisted), I was never more pleased to see the many occasions where my rv. "reverted to last version" by them, or I saw them "rv to last version" by me. And those pages can be truely spambanks for non-notable DJs, holy men, poets, singers, and, of course, "businessmen." Etc; few of whom- unlike O2C- have the faintest regard for WP:LISTN but plenty for self-aggrandisment. I hope this can be resolved to the benefit- not of individuals- but the encyclopaedia. Cheers, SerialNumber54129 20:01, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
- Kaizenify admitted that Imagekraft was his in this thread and there is more evidence laid out there. Additionally there is more evidence here. WP:MEAT means that multiple editors work together illegitimately..and some of those appear to sock. Kaizenify still denies wrongdoing despite clear socking. Oluwa2Chainz, please read those threads and then explain.
— Berean Hunter (talk) 20:18, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
- It is true that I used to manage the social media accounts of Wikimedia Nigeria UserGroup but I have never attended any WNUG function and know nothing about "modem sharing". I am not doubting the CU evidence but I feel justified since Darreg also pointed out that Nigerian ISPs usually assign one IP address to multiple internet users. —Oluwa2Chainz »» (talk to me) 20:35, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
