What sorts of contributions do you want to make? Any particular topic areas you are interested in? 331dot (talk) 15:00, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

My academic background lies largely in the American trade union movement and the Progressive Era. Pages like the Labor Party (US, 19th Century) could certainly be longer, and I'd like to contribute to articles on Agrarianism in the US, the Greenbackers, etc.Vertci (talk) 15:16, 7 December 2022 (UTC)


 * What do you think? 331dot (talk) 15:25, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Nothing favorable. Vertci, the only edits you made were the disruptive ones to your sandbox, which were made over the course of three years, and two consecutive edits to Tanzania, the first of which was to vandalize the article and the second to revert the edit. Your comment "alongside minor edits to other pages" is disingenuous. Those two edits are consistent with the edits to your sandbox, meaning using Wikipedia as a place to screw around. Based on your actual history, I don't have any confidence that you would constructively edit any of the articles you mention above.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:13, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Those are some pretty specific topic areas to suggest if their only interest is in screwing around. Would it help if they demonstrated on this page a specific, substantive edit they would make? 331dot (talk) 16:21, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes. I'd also like to know why they came back here after over a year to request an unblock. After spending 3 years editing wikipeda unconstructively (at best) and then another year doing nothing, why the "sudden" interest in editing articles constructively?--Bbb23 (talk) 16:40, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
