Request reason:
I have been blocked for creating a table of books in my sandbox, and then copying that table to the real page. As a new user, I was checking out the formats and proper formatting of the table in the sandbox, before editing the main content. I was not comfortable editing a page content directly. If that is not the purpose of the sandbox, how is one supposed to test and validate formats. It believe it is a legitimate use of sandbox, check out formatting instead of messing up main page articles. As part as the fact that the contents were not encyclopedia style, I would accept that I am new and that my writeup would need improvement. I am Indian and interested in maintaining/editing pages about Indian scientists. I believe this decision is arbitrary and unfair, and should be reversed.

Decline reason:
Nonsense, none of this is relevant. Please reread your block notice. Yamla (talk) 13:46, 22 March 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.
