Wikimedia Alert
Hello, I'll like to know why I got an alert from Wikimedia asking me to create my user page. I have done that previously on Wikipedia Thank you! Grey Matter Copy (talk) 16:49, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

I strongly suggest you delete the "This is a new user" from your signature. Experienced editors can look at how long you have had an account with Wikipedia, and respond accordingly. I suppose you could put it on your User page until you feel the newness has worn off. David notMD (talk) 21:22, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Also, asking questions on your own Talk page is not effective. David notMD (talk) 21:23, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

I appreciate your response,David notMD will definitely put your advice to use. Grey Matter Copy (talk) 23:17, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Welcoming New Volunteers
 WikiProject Nigeria



Note that the dates observed in bold under the underlined title of message help reflect and clarify the most current & oldest messages with the most current being at the top and the oldest being at the bottom.

Welcoming New Volunteers '  (25/06/2021)  We hereby want to officially welcome new volunteers who have recently joined the collaborative project and have volunteered to work in WP:NIGERIA. The arrival of new volunteers is often associated with the confusion of “what to do” on their part, it is then behoove of us to treat them with care, guide them, and protect them from the general pitfalls a new editor would most usually fall into. We are also admonished to clean up after them if they err and encourage them, most especially when they are genuine editors with potential to do good work not just for us, but for the community as a whole. Once more, we hereby thank all new editors who have volunteered to work here and hope they enjoy their stay here. Requests for uncreated articles  (24/1/2020)  Greetings & a great weekend to you all. It would be great if the (Requests for uncreated articles) section in our wiki project can be attended to & at least one article be created this weekend as some requests have been pending since 2016. I believe this would be pivotal to the encyclopedia as a whole & a means to get editors who have gone inactive to revive their Wikipedia activities.

Disambiguation link notification for August 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 8th Nigeria National Assembly, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Abu Ibrahim. 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.)

Please Assist to Remove Block

 * Hey, There's an existing Twitter ban in Nigeria so some of us use VPNs to gain access to twitter. My understanding of what they wrote is that they had used a VPN to access twitter and forgot to turn it off and tried to edit on Wikipedia and was caught by an auto block. I had similar experience a while ago but decided to wait out the block duration. Hope this helps.  Princess of Ara  11:41, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

I appreciate you❤️ Princess of Ara  but I'm one person. Also, After the contest, I hope you can put me through creating a better article, for my draft page you reviewed 🙏🏿 Mr Grey

I have confirmed that is indeed a proxy. Please stop claiming you aren't using proxies/vpn's when you know, based on the above, that you are. --Yamla (talk) 17:37, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I have deleted said VPN app and cleared my history, cache and cookies. Won't happen again, kindly assist.

 * You are still operating from a proxy. However, this particular proxy isn't blocked. You should be able to edit after waiting 24 hours. Note, though, that you should expect this proxy, too, will be blocked shortly. --Yamla (talk) 21:50, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
