Request reason:

I have a shared IP by SMILE an ISP in Nigeria which many people use. I took hours to edit this profile and expand the article and someone reverted it all. The arrest section is LIBELOUS. It must be reverted as it is an ongoing trial. Pls research the edits I made. I am not a COI Sock whatever that means

Decline reason:

If the current arrest section were libelous, the longer section you wrote would be even worse. This is beyond the pale. You clearly do not understand the policy on biographies of living people. Huon (talk) 19:20, 2 July 2017 (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.

Couple of notes

Welcome to Wikipedia! A couple of quick notes. While we always appreciate editors signing posts on talk pages, you shouldn't sign changes that you make to articles. Also, please only use the "minor edit" checkbox for really small things like spelling corrections, removing duplicate words or something small that doesn't change how things look on the page. Adding new information / source, or changing how something is phrased isn't considered a minor edit on Wikipedia. Thanks! Ravensfire (talk) 20:17, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
