Welcome!

Hello, Onoja1, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you created or edited appears to be an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is a common mistake made by new Wikipedians—as this is an encyclopedia, we wouldn't expect to have an article about every contributor. We require individuals to meet Wikipedia's definition of a notable person to accept articles about them.

The page you created about yourself may well be deleted from the encyclopedia. If it is deleted and you wish to retrieve its contents, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page. If your contributions to an existing article about yourself are undone and you wish to add to it, please propose the changes on its talk page.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (October 2)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Onoja1/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Please, how can I put a profile of someone on the Wikipedia? Onoja1 (talk) 11:18, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You were doing the correct thing to submit an article however all new articles on Wikipedia have to show the subject is notable (See WP:N) which in most cases requires significant coverage (WP:SIGCOV) in multiple independent (WP:INDY) reliable sources (WP:RS). User:Onoja1/sandbox just shows they/you have written things not that anything has been written about them. KylieTastic (talk) 11:34, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Onoja1! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! KylieTastic (talk) 11:00, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Anthony Edogbo (October 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Jamiebuba were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Anthony Edogbo and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Anthony Edogbo

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Anthony Edogbo, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. Jamiebuba (talk) 17:08, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please, I would like to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement Onoja1 (talk) 17:44, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Edogbo Anthony

Hello Onoja1,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Edogbo Anthony for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Arthistorian1977 (talk) 11:15, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please, help me check if Edogbo Anthony has improved and what else I should do. Thanks. Onoja1 (talk) 13:10, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Edogbo Anthony for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Edogbo Anthony is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

Pleas, help me check the page. Is it not better now? Onoja1 (talk) 08:47, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How can I join the discussion? Onoja1 (talk) 20:23, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

October 2022

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Onoja1. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. DatGuy^Talk_Contribs 18:39, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I was asking users/editors for general advice on how to improve the quality of the article. I even joined live chat room. Onoja1 (talk) 14:14, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Onoja1 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Sincerely, it's unfortunate that I got blocked within feed days of staying active and making efforts to become a better contributor here. I read through the findings of the investigation and I now understand the reason I was blocked. Henceforth, I will avoid anything that could link me to abuses. I appeal to be unblocked as I have understood the platform better and have prepared articles on notable subjects I would like to work on. Thank you. Onoja1 (talk) 05:13, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This doesn't address the reason for your block. It's just a generic "I will do better" unblock that could apply to almost anyone. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:59, 11 November 2022 (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.

But did you use multiple accounts or not? That's what we really want to know first. Daniel Case (talk) 06:25, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sincerely, I have one account. I just can't figure out how other accounts were linked to me. I was frantically on the platform reaching out to users for assistance on how I can improve on my article up for deletion.

I still suspect attempts were made from people in the country to frustrate the article because of the position of the subject in the upcoming election. I am a journalist and I more interested in becoming a better editor here. Onoja1 (talk) 06:34, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I was frantically on the platform reaching out to users for assistance on how I can improve on my article up for deletion - as suspected in the SPI, this is meatpuppetry and it's disallowed on Wikipedia. DatGuy^Talk_Contribs 07:31, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please, what do I do now? Onoja1 (talk) 12:49, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Onoja1, I may have misunderstood your statement. Do you mean that you were asking people to join the deletion discussion to help keep the article? Or that you asked them for general advice on how to improve the quality of the article? DatGuy^Talk_Contribs 11:23, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oops! I understand now. I have just gone through that. It will never happen again, I promise. Onoja1 (talk) 09:13, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Closing this as stale, since the user did not respond to the questions below. The user can open a new request that addresses the questions below when they return. Z1720 (talk) 16:04, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Given that you have misled us about your editing at least once already, why should we trust you to continue editing? What sorts of contributions do you intend to make if unblocked? _signed,Rosguill ^talk 22:32, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How can I open another unblock request? Onoja1 (talk) 16:57, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock

Please, what else do I do to be unblocked? Onoja1 (talk) 16:48, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please open a new unblock request that addresses the question above. Z1720 (talk) 16:49, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

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.

Request reason:

First, I want to say that understand what I blocked for. I want to admit that I attempted manipulating an article's approval via discussion with multiple accounts. I have learnt my lesson and will not continue to cause damage or disruption to the platform, instead, I will be making meaningful contributions with notable references and allow admins to approve or disapprove without attempting to manipulate.

Decline reason:

Question below was answered with a vague answer that provided essentially no detail whatsoever, and the above unblock request is similar (what lessons did you learn, and what specifically should you have done differently?)

I will dedicate my time to making quality and verifiable contributions to projects I have good knowledge and information on. Especially African and Nigerian focused projects.

As a Journalist, I believe I can contribute to truthfully through researches without cutting corners like I did.
