Please stop reverting my aesthetic fixes to the spacing of the article. I don't understand why you think that's a good idea. These repeated reversions could probably serve as grounds for a report under the three-revert rule, so I would take this to a talk page if I were you, rather than continuing your reversions and blankings without explanation. --HappyWithWhatYouHaveToBeHappyWith (talk) 05:13, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@HappyWithWhatYouHaveToBeHappyWith: The article is about Jasper's Riddle which is a project or band name. I removed content unrelated to that for accuracy. The 3 revert rule applies to you too. If you want to create a biography about L. S. Zeickner feel free, otherwise biographical content doesn't belong on this band page. You made aesthetic fixes after adding content inappropriate for the article. You are the one vandalising the page. 

The subject themselves never referred to Jasper's Riddle as anything other than a specific project "Acoustic storybook" hence this article should only refer to that. As another editor said, if it survives deletion then you can move the article to the subject's own biography.

Request reason:

The first article I contributed to was an article about Lukas Zeickner who has a project called Jasper's Riddle. I learned about him from his work on Benin Bronzes and contributed to the article adding further information and sources about that his bronze work. The article was then nominated for deletion for reasons relating the original article about his music career added by other contributors that were removed. Since then I have been disputing argument against his notability. After fact checking I made accurate contributions to the article and also removed unrelated information about his biography because the article is actually not about the user himself but refers the project Jasper's Riddle. The biographical data has nothing to do with the article in question. How exactly is this not contribution to the encyclopaedia? Please look into this so that my contributions on Wikipedia to this page is not removed. You protected a page with has BLP information in an inappropriate article, against wikipedia policies. I was just trying to follow policy but you blocked me for it which I cant understand. Please revert the page about Jasper's Riddle to contain information about Jasper's Riddle an acoustic storybook as per wikipedia guideline and protect from vandalism. The 7 day period for its deletion has also expired so if its not being deleted or retaining biography of the person it should be moved to the name of the person. I thought I contributed in line with policy, please correct me if I'm wrong and review your block with this appeal @EvergreenFir: Factsaboutnigeria (talk) 08:24, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You seem to have a battleground mentality here and are not interested in collaborating with others to improve this project- which is the definition of WP:NOTHERE in my opinion. So this is a good block and I see no reason here to remove it. 331dot (talk) 08:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

@331dot: I have been collaborating with others to improve this article, these are fair disagreements when I have made efforts to resolve. I definitely dont have a battleground mentality, please check the talk page I have been trying to collaborate amicably to improve this article and you can see an example of another editor who I discussed amicably we discussed on my talk page and he later agreed with my revision and affirmed it on the talk page because my points were completely valid in line with wikipedia policy as against the current article. I am surprised by the block without context. I have been actively dissuading battles and pushing for collaborative edits please look at the deletion discussion. You can also see the discussion in the deletion discussion where other user also points out that the independent sources dont even mention "Jasper's Riddle" hence information doesnt not belong in the page. This was all I pointed out and made valid improvement to the article by removing content unrelated to Jasper's Riddle. I reached consensus with two other editors who mistakenly undid my revision but then agreed with my point and kept the revision after discussing on our respective talk pages. To my surprise the user who had nominated it for deletion undid the improvements with no explanation or contribution to the talk page, ignoring the consensus with other editors/ all the people who pointed out that the BLP does not belong to this article and undid the revisions already agreed on by 3 others (myself included). I tried to discuss with her but she did not engage with me instead falsely reported me which seems more like a personal attack, its not based on any policy violation on my part. I do want to contribute to wikipedia and collaborate with others. I only raised valid points about an article and was blocked for no reason. Please look into it. As it stands now the page about Jasper's Riddle should contain information about Jasper's Riddle the title of a music project which L. S. Zeickner refers as an acoustic storybook. Right now it contains unrelated information which belong in a BLP and do not reference the subject title. The 7 day period for its deletion has also expired so if its not being deleted and retaining biography of the person it should be moved to the name of the person. I thought I contributed in line with policy, please correct me if I'm wrong and review your block with this appeal. I really want to be a contributor for wikipedia.

Decline reason:

Editor seems to have moved on (last edit was November 13 and hasn't responded to any of the subsequent unblock appeal replies). Feel free to open a new unblock request if you wish to re-engage. -- Euryalus (talk) 04:53, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You have addressed me specifically, but it is no longer up to me, someone else will review your request. 331dot (talk) 10:06, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@331dot: Can you read my request and put in a good word please? Is there any way for me to get it reviewed again? It doesnt seem to have been seen by another admin

Your request is open and visible to other administrators. We are all volunteers doing what we can, when we can do it, in our free time. Please be patient. 331dot (talk) 09:45, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay understood, thanks. Factsaboutnigeria (talk) 10:26, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(copied from the "unblock on hold request in early December)

Factsaboutnigeria:
  • First, regardless of what anyone else did in the AfD your edits to the article (and the AfD) did display a battleground approach. Have a read of the policy and consider what might be done differently next time, for example by commenting on content and not contributors.
  • Second, the Jasper's Riddle article has also now been deleted for lacking notability: if you were unblocked you should not simply recreate it using the previous references as it will likely be deleted again. To advance this unblock request please outline some other articles you'd be interested in editing. You should also give some indication that you've read and understood the reliable sourcing policy as the Jasper's Riddle article had some sourcing problems.
  • Third, your focus on this one article and artist suggest you may have a conflict of interest with Zeickner-Okoro. If so please provide some detail of this association including any paid relationship. Wikipedia allows paid editing in certain circumstances, but only if it the policy is very precisely followed.
  • And fourth, an unblock needs permission from the blocking administrator. I've pinged them to this discussion but they're unlikely to agree to an unblock without some evidence that your previous battleground approach has been abandoned. Even if they do agree, they may have further conditions beyond those listed above.

I appreciate this all seems like a lot of work, but a battleground approach to editing is highly disruptive and there needs to be reasonable evidence it won't resume. -- Euryalus (talk) 21:23, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
