note

        • Due to wifi issues, I will not always be able to respond to messages or concerns quickly, and it is possible that my IP address will change again should we have to get a new router, but I wanted to let you know I am presently having wifi issues, so there may be some times where a person posts to me or responds to me on a talkpage or what not, or even here, but I don't get back to them right away. Please forgive any delays in my responses, I do not live near a major city right now, and wifi can be somewhat sketchy in my location at times. If my IP changes, I will try to find this talkpage again and post a link to my new IP. I'm still waiting on that create an account request I sent in July.

My name is Nahom, I am a blind user and cannot do in-line citation due to the captcha's system being exclusively visual I will not create an account until issues with my e-mail are sourted. All sources I use will be put in the edit summary. do not revert my edits with an unsourced message unless you check the edit summary. This will be in effect until wikipedia gets with the times and begins using an accessible captcha, I don't care if it's google's captcha or where it's from.

If you can't put the source in properly with your edit, you shouldn't be making the edit. Post a note on the talk page saying what you want to edit and what source you are using and let someone who can do it properly add it. --Khajidha (talk) 15:53, 12 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

No. I have to put the link in the edit summar ydue to the captcha system. I can't post links to external sites without completing the captcha which is not accessible with the screen reader. It's not my fault Wikipedia discriminates against the blind. 38.111.120.74 (talk) 01:19, 14 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Anothe rupdate:

Just sent an account request to the thingy, hopefully it won't take 4 months for the request an account thing, because I'm not dealing with people bitching about the fact that I can't do in-line citations on Wikipedia for 4 months. That captcha thing really needs updating big big big time.

In the mean time, you must put up with me putting the links in the edit summaries, and helping me cite them.

Also note to users, templates mess with my screen-reader, it's "graphic graphic graphic graphic, " sounds like mumbo jumbo, no offense to the template makers, it's just how my screen-reader reads it. I use JAWS.

to Drmies edit

Look, I know I have less than good feelings towards Alabama and other Southern U.S. states that have had a history of ill treatment towards people of African descent, but so you know, as I know you are watching this page, I plan on working with you, and other users, and I plan to do my best not to judge you just because you are from Alabama anymore. Will it be hard for me, yes, bit I want to do it, I want to judge you on your edits. I do however think you aught to refresh your memmory on what a vandal is on Wikipedia, as your first block to me was with a reason of vandalism. As a character in The Princess Bride said, "I don't think it means what you think it means." Regardless, I plan to work with you and other editors even if they are from the Southern U.S. My feelings toward the state of Alabama and its aweful history have not changed, and may or may not change, but I want to edit Wikipedia while working with you guys.

thanks.

new IP edit

This is my at User:Amakuru I believe this is my new IP.

I am trying to blank this page for new users of this IP and request that you remove the block on the one for this talk page as due to my wifi issues, my IP is now the one you see in my current signature. Please note this in the guture ig you wish to block me that due to my geographic location, wifi issues are frequent here, and this may cause my IP address to change. I don't know if I'll get this IP again, it's a bit unpredictable given my location. So please note this and have the block on the 38 IP (this talk page) removed. If you like you may place the lbock on my current IP. thanks.

PS, I pinged User:Amakuru because that is the admin I trust the most. 199.101.61.254 (talk) 15:29, 17 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Eh--wait. You are blocked, for six months with talk page access revoked, and now you have a different IP, and you come here to ask that the block be moved to the other IP? OK. Drmies (talk) 15:32, 17 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • User:Graham87, I was going to block that other IP and revoke TPA, as requested (I think), but I'm too busy scratching my head. I'm going to get more coffee. Need some? Drmies (talk) 15:33, 17 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
    • @Drmies: Nah thanks, it's a bit late at night for caffeine here! :-) I've done the block. Graham87 15:51, 17 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
