Wrongful ip address block

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).

Researcherofgreatness (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is 41.190.30.50. it's to expire in 11 hours, but I just want to address the unjust block as I don't use vpn and probably contribute tooResearcherofgreatness (talk) 19:25, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I cannot unblock because this account is not blocked, as you noted. But yes, the IP in question is. What I recommend to you is going to WP:IPECPROXY and following the directions there to request IP block exemption. — Daniel Case (talk) 06:51, 1 May 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.

Capitalization of food names

Please don't capitalize names of foods. This requires a lot of cleanup. The only exceptions are certain German-origin foods (because in German many nouns are capitalized that aren't capitalized in English) and any words in a food name that are a proper noun in their own right, as in oysters Rockefeller or chicken Kiev. Thanks for your attention to this in the future. - Julietdeltalima (talk) 16:25, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

March 6

Hello I’m Freddie Cas, please next time make your researches very well before including anything on Wikipedia, you added Chinedu to the article Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, I removed it because is false and please next time when adding anything on Wikipedia do provide a source to avoid confusion. For example, sources are now carrying and publishing on the name Chinedu because you added it on Wikipedia. Freddie Cas (talk) 23:00, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Researcher of greatness here. His middle name is Chinedu. He confirmed it himself in a club house interview and he contested for a political seat previously as "Chinedu Gbadegbo Rhodes Vivour". This is common knowledge. No, he was well known to also have the name Chinedu and it was spreading on social media before my Wikipedia edit.
I don't understand why you are against the fact that Chinedu is one of his names? As well as Patrick by the way, Which is written as the first name in his University certificate. Are you also denying that. I just edited the truth, but I'm tired of this back and forth, for now. Researcherofgreatness (talk) 14:30, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Yoruba women's clothing

Hello, Researcherofgreatness,

Thank you for creating Yoruba women's clothing.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for creating Yoruba women's clothing; the topic is clearly important. I've placed a few maintenance tags on the page, because at the moment it isn't structured like a Wikipedia article should be. Please take a look at Inuit clothing, a featured article on a similar topic; that is the sort of structure you should be aiming for. It would also be very helpful if you can explain the non-English terms you use, but please remember these need to be supported by reliable sources. Happy editing,

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Vanamonde93}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Addendum: I just removed some content from that article because you copied it verbatim from a website. That is a violation of our copyright policy; content from a source must be rewritten in your own words except when you quote brief fragments with quotation marks. Please don't do this again in the future. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:20, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't copy anything verbatim from a website. Be careful with how you frame accusations. I had help from different compilers and tools but i didnt copy anything from any website. I will keep in mind that nothing comes across as verbatim. Thanks. Researcherofgreatness (talk) 08:34, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BE WARNED!!!

Listen, Do not make any changes in the akwete article, especially when you are focused on propagating vandalism and wrong information with no credible citations on Wikipedia. Delimane (talk) 10:47, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Okay I will add more citations when I'm less busy if you want 😃. I only write on accurate history which you have a complex about. You will still get triggered and change it no matter how many citations I had. The facts remain facts, and the information is written in books and all over the Internet which is what matters. No body takes Wikipedia as a source anyways, so you can keep at it. The power of the truth is not in your hand and will never be. Researcherofgreatness (talk) 17:46, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pakaja moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Pakaja. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 00:55, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

South West (Nigeria) page

Could you explain this edit on the South West (Nigeria) page? Thank you, Watercheetah99 (talk) 18:43, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. South West Nigeria is a geopolitical zone and region that refers to part of the Region that is Yorubaland in Nigeria. This refers to 6 states, Oyo, Ondo, Lagos, Osun, Ekiti, Ogun. Kwara and parts of Kogi are Yoruba regions and part of Yorubaland in Nigeria but aren't generally groupedas south west due to location. The native language spoken in South West Nigeria is Yoruba, there are some migrants who can speak their own languages at home but those arent languages for the south west. Ewe and Gun also aren't any kind of Nigerian language.

Researcherofgreatness (talk) 16:28, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, Ewe and Gun are both indigenous languages of the South-West (mainly spoken around the Badagry area); additionally, Itsekiri and Izon are spoken in parts of Ondo State — all four of those languages have thus been readded. Secondly, that section is *not* just for languages native to the South-West, it is for major languages *spoken* in the South-West — thus Hausa and Igbo have also been returned (no one can claim these languages are not major in the SW). In the future, please explain edits in the edit summary space and research prior to making mass deletion edits. Watercheetah99 (talk) 00:41, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are wrong about Ewe andwhich are not indigenous to the south west Nigeria or any part of Nigeria, Yes Egun is spoken in parts of the Badagry area, thats about it. Adding non native languages conflates random things. Pls go do your research again if you think Ewe is spoken in South west Nigeria. If yiu mean some immigrants you might as well add wolof and french. 102.88.81.86 (talk) 16:42, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, non-native languages does not "conflate" anything, do you want me to remove English because it isn't native? No, of course not. Major languages is used in every page for all 6 geopolitical zones, using only native languages would be misleading, unhelpful, and play into ethnic/linguistic jingoism. Secondly, I appreciate you conceding that Gun is common in the Badagry area but you have missed that there is an indigenous Ewe community there as well — to be fair, your confusion may come from the fact that the community is sometimes labeled "Fon" but it is certainly present. One thing you could argue is "the indigenous Ewe community isn't large enough for their language to be major," which would be a fair point but as you noted, there is a large Ewe-speaking immigrant community so Ewe overall (Nigerians and immigrants combined) likely is a major language. Additionally, I don't think there is a large enough Wolof-speaking community in the South West, but you made a good point about Francophones so I will add French to the language list. Lastly, your most recent edits is false; there is no governing entity of the South West, thus there cannot be an "official language" of the South West. Further edits in an attempt to elevate Yoruba over other languages or sourcelessly remove non-Yoruba languages will be reverted and considered as evidence that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Creole cuisine, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page European. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
