Hello, fellow Wikipedians I am new and aching to contribute to the collective human knowledge. Feel free to message me anytime.--LoveKhan69 (talk) 10:43, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Welcome LoveKhan69!

Now that you've joined Wikipedia, there are 40,721,967 registered editors!
Hello LoveKhan69. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm S0091, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Sincerely, S0091 (talk) 20:43, 15 January 2021 (UTC)   (Leave me a message)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Tariq Javed (Engineer)

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Tariq Javed (Engineer), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Your thread has been archived

edit
 

Hi LoveKhan69! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, How do I add a Crest or symbol for a University, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread.


The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both automated accounts. You can opt out of future notifications by placing {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}} here on your user talk page. Muninnbot (talk) 19:00, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Truck Art Plane moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Truck Art Plane, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello LoveKhan69. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:LoveKhan69. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=LoveKhan69|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. CUPIDICAE💕 14:46, 24 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

 

Your account has been blocked indefinitely for advertising or promotion and violating the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use. This is because you have been making promotional edits to topics in which you have a financial stake, yet you have failed to adhere to the mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a form of conflict of interest (COI) editing which involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is strictly prohibited. Using this site for advertising or promotion is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, please read our guide to appealing blocks to understand more about unblock requests, and then add the text {{unblock|reason=your reason here ~~~~}} at the end of your user talk page. For that request to be considered, you must:

  • Confirm that you have read and understand the Terms of Use and paid editing disclosure requirements.
  • State clearly how you are being compensated for your edits, and describe any affiliation or conflict of interest you might have with the subjects you have written about.
  • Describe how you intend to edit such topics in the future.

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).

LoveKhan69 (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I have gone through Wikipedia TOS and realize what I was doing is not only strictly against tos but also against the spirit of the Wikipedia Project. I was promised compensation for editing Ehthesham Shahid page, Zaki Nusseibeh, and Truck art plane page. But I realize that claiming ignorance of a rule does not exempt me from the punishment of breaking it. I would like to add that after my first warning about UPE by the user CUPIDICAE, I have not tried to edit the aforementioned pages. So I don't further do editing that now I realize would be considered disruptive in nature. During my time editing, I have come to enjoy contributing to Wikipedia community. And would like to continue doing that in future if I am unbanned from editing. As far as my future contributions go I will stay away from editing pages on personalities and/or companies. And strictly would stick to editing pages on cities and events etc. I would like to be given a second chance to regain trust of fellow contributors and would like to apologize for wasting time of other contributors to clean up my mess.LoveKhan69 (talk) 20:46, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Decline reason:

You were warned about this weeks ago; blatantly lying here doesn't do much for your unblock prospects. OhNoitsJamie Talk 01:42, 11 March 2021 (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.

That's incorrect, I warned you weeks ago on my own talk page and more or less denied being paid or any connection. Reviewing admin should see this. CUPIDICAE💕 20:55, 25 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yes that is what I was referring to when I say 'When I was first warned about UPE'. That was the first time I was warned and I didn't do any edits after that or tried to waste anyone's time arguing about it. My initial reaction was defensive and I truly regret it. --LoveKhan69 (talk) 20:59, 25 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

LoveKhan69, are you willing to agree to a formal topic ban regarding biographies of living people and active companies as a condition to being unblocked? signed, Rosguill talk 06:40, 10 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I agree to a formal topic ban regarding biographies of living people and active companies as a condition to being unblocked. LoveKhan69 (talk) 18:12, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I've reviewed off-wiki evidence that seems quit conclusive. I'm afraid that you're unlikely to have any success with further unblock requests. signed, Rosguill talk 19:41, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Alright, I understand. Thank you. LoveKhan69 (talk) 04:51, 12 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
