"please unblock me, I will not self promote, I will provide real value" Tguideweb (talk) 13:13, 15 June 2023 (UTC)


 * i was trying to edit and add reference to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Gatos-Saratoga_Joint_Union_High_School_District and my intention was not to self promote, the reference I attached inline with the reference I provided.
 * Please unblock my account and approve my username change request Tguideweb (talk) 13:17, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * If you wish to be unblocked, you need to demonstrate you understand why your edit was inappropriate and what you'd do differently if unblocked. If your claim is that your edit was appropriate, this is the end of the line. --Yamla (talk) 13:18, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I understand my edit was inappropriate, I will follow Wikipedia's policy.
 * And I will not do inappropriate edit again
 * Please forgive me. Tguideweb (talk) 13:21, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * You need to convince us. What was wrong with your edit? How will you avoid making inappropriate edits in the future (how will your future edits differ)? What will you write about instead, if unblocked? --Yamla (talk) 13:24, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I am writing to appeal my block from editing Wikipedia and a change of username from tguideweb to Auwal M Abdullahi. I understand that my previous edit was inappropriate because it was self-promotional. I apologize for this error and I will take steps to avoid making inappropriate edits in the future. In my previous edit, I added a reference to my own blog post about a topic that was also covered on Wikipedia. I did this because I thought the information in my blog post was helpful and relevant to the Wikipedia article.
 * However, I now understand that adding a reference to my own work is considered self-promotion and is not allowed on Wikipedia.
 * In the future, I will avoid making inappropriate edits by following these guidelines: * I will only add references to reliable sources, such as peer-reviewed journals, books, and government websites.*
 * I will not edit Wikipedia articles for the purpose of promoting myself or my work.
 * I am committed to following these guidelines and I believe that I can be a valuable contributor to Wikipedia.
 * I am interested in writing about a variety of topics, including technology, science, and history. I am confident that I can provide accurate and unbiased information to Wikipedia readers.
 * Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, [Auwal M Abdullahi] Tguideweb (talk) 13:34, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Please make an unblock request. WP:GAB explains how. --Yamla (talk) 13:35, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * i don't really understand, I should create another topic making a request? Tguideweb (talk) 13:40, 15 June 2023 (UTC)


 * This sounds pretty good to me, but what do you think? 331dot (talk) 19:22, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't know what to do, I have tried My best to Appeal but it doesn't feel like it will work Tguideweb (talk) 19:24, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * We're working on it. Please be patient. I've renamed your account. 331dot (talk) 19:25, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
 * my friend you can please change any of my administrative decisions without asking me (blocking or page protection, except CS). Thank you for your ever gracious outreach to me -- but I am absolutely thankful for your presence here. Warmly, Lourdes  04:58, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
