Why did you undo what I wrote on oranmiyan ?

November 2021 edit

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Ọranyan. JeffUK (talk) 02:12, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply


Jeff, I am not vandalizing anything, I wrote the reason why I deleted most of what is on that page. oranmiyan is not a historical figure, he is a myth created for political reasons. This is wikipedia, not a yoruba propaganda outlet, you have to respect the truth here ! History is not just a made up story, it relies on eyewitness written records of which there is none for oranmiyan !

It might be more efficient to take up your issues on the talk page of Ọranyan, rather than repeatedly edit warring on the page. --OrangeYoshi99 (talk) 02:25, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

I posted my reasons, oranmiyan is a fairytale like spiderman, but some crooks are trying to have this fairytale pass for history, as an Edo I am concerned and I am tired of these fairytales confusing the kids and gullible adults and bastardizing african history. Wikipedia shouldn't be used to further propaganda.

Request reason:

I was blocked for correcting a story about oranmiyan whom is a fictional character but he is being made to look like a historical figure by some commenters. It may interest you to know that I am Edo (from Benin Kingdom/Empire) and the history of my people is being rewriten by the yoruba who keep making claims about my famous people, these claims put the yoruba at the centre of the history of my own people. All these claims are false and fictional, but I get blocked when I correct them. This brings us to oranmiyan which is a mythical figure being used by the yoruba in order to elevate the ooni of ife and the alafin of oyo (yoruba monarchs) above the Oba of Benin (the emperor of Benin), wikipedia should be aware that there is a political battle ongoing on its african history pages and the yoruba are clearly using wikipedia to push their propaganda and brainwashh the kids and gullible adults. Also Nigeria has a lot of gullible adults due to the fact the educational system in nigeria is very bad, and the kids are getting brainwashed by these fake history. So please african history needs your help, apply more scrutiny before accepting tales about african history into wikipedia.

The story of oranmiyan supposedly took place in a period from which no written document of the region survived to tell the story, oranmiyan is a made up story. So please take a look at the story of oduduwa and oranmiyan which do not have any eyewitness written records to prove their veracity and unblock me. I am doing the right thing, I shouldn't be blocked. Efosa1987 (talk) 03:11, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

You are blocked for edit warring, not for the content of your edits. You need to make your arguments on the talk page of the relevant articles, not here, and not in edit summaries. Wikipedia works on consensus, and edit warring is simply not tolerated. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 04:43, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I did make my case on the talk page, and I was put on warring notice by a person who didn't care to make his case on the talk page, you seem very biased, a quick look at the talk page will show you that I am the only perso who made his case on the talk page. Yet I am blocked. Please administrators don't allow yoruba propagandists to use wikipedia to spread fake history. The way administrator jpgordon works is nonsensical, the reason given for my block is a lie, I made my case. I was blocked at the request of yoruba commenters whom are helped by a yoruba administrator. This is not a fair treatment. the page about oranyan is a fraud, it doesn't meet wikipedia standards and it is an attack on my people, I urge other administrators to take a profound look at the oranyan history page and notice it is a fairy tale and not history. Wikipedia is not suppoed to be a tool for nigerian scammers peddling fake history. administrator jpmorgan is unfair and he told a lie against me. Efosa1987 (talk) 09:07, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Wikipedia has editors from all over the world, not just Nigeria. This request does not address your edit warring- which is not acceptable. Again, you were not blocked for the content of your edits, but for your disruptive behavior. Until you show your understanding of this, the block will not be removed early. I also suggest that you stop your attacks against other users. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 09:13, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

(User :331dot) I never claimed that all nigerian editors were from nigeria, so you are correcting a mistake which wasn't made. Why was the other person involved in the edit warring not also blocked ? To have an edit war, you need at least two sides, so why was I blocked and nobody else ? was I editwarring with myself ? And look, you peoples way of fonctionning is flawed, I am only stating facts, yet you keep giving me starnge labels. Listen: I made my case for the reason I was making my edit on the talk page of "oranyan". the other editors didn't make any case at all, so why am I blocked ? It feels like I am being ganged up against here ! Is this the wikipedia way of doing things: content and substance doesn't matter, instead fake rightousness and lynchings are the rule ?

Decline reason:

"lynchings"?!? I have extended your block indefinitely. This is such an inappropriate unblock request that you clearly should not be unblocked in the foreseeable future. Yamla (talk) 10:44, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

(User:Yamla) you seem easily and irrationnally triggered. Your reason for extending my block is totally irrational. I described how I am treated by using the word "lynchins" and you overreacted. Your behaviour is unfit for an administrator. You need to be rational and controle your feelings. I have been unfairly blocked and I am being lynched by irrational moderators. I made the case for my edits on the talk pages of the pages which I edited, but some editors who didn't make any case for their edits kept undoing my work. Yet I was blocked and they were left to continue. Now a group of administrators are bullying me by illogically blocking me for irrational reasons. I urge rational and moderators of good faith to intervene, wikipedia is being used by a few moderators to bully the truth. Efosa1987 (talk) 10:54, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Blocked for correcting fake history edit

|oranmiyan is a fictional character. Indeed there is no eyewitness written document about oranmiyan. Also oranmiyan is a story being used as propaganda by the yoruba to appropriate the history of Benin empire. I am from Benin empire and I would like to correct these fake histories. I urge you to have some logical standards with regards to the african history section, please. Nigeria, where I am from, has a lot of gullible and uneducated adults whom are easily duped by these stories and would believe them to be true just because wikipedia says so, also the children are really being brainwashed by these stories.

I did nothing wrong, so please unblock me and put the oranmiyan page under scrutiny. Oranmiyan is pure propaganda for the yoruba and against my people.

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.JeffUK (talk) 09:16, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

First of all, I am a nigerian, I wasn't being offensive, I was telling the truth. Nigeria does have some very gullible adults, I know because I am a Nigerian. the reason nigeria has such gullible people is because of the lack of education which nigeria suffers from. I think you are a yoruba and you are defending your yoruba propaganda. You didn't even care to make any case for reverting to your prefered edit version. Yet I am blcoked while you who peddles fake history, and makes no case on the talk page, you are allowed to continue. This is not how history works.

On getting acquainted with Wikipedia edit

Hi @Efosa1987, if you do see this, I hope it can offer some help to you.

Go through a few of these policies on Wikipedia and they may be able to offer you some assistance: WP:BRD, WP:CIVIL, WP:FULLCITE, WP:ONUS, WP:VERIFY, WP:PSTS, WP:NOR.
