Request reason:

Hi, I was blocked a few years ago for editing a page that did not need editing (what I wrote I cannot remember).I understand such action is inappropriate, and I apologise. Lately, I want to help Wikipedia by editing pages that actually need editing - particularly areas I am knowledgeable in. I would like to be unblocked, and apologise for my previous actions. Thanks!

Decline reason:

You were blocked less than two years ago, for this. There is certainly a pretty easy path forward for you to get unblocked. Please give an example of a specific non-trivial edit you plan to make. Thsi should be easy as you indicate you have several edits you wish to make. Yamla (talk) 11:55, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Edits I wish to make

Hello Yamla, thank you for the timely response. A key change I would like to make is to edit the Air Vanuatu wikipedia change, who recently went into administration. I would like to increase the amount of relevant information surrounding this as I believe it to be lacklustre. I am interested in the aviation industry and believe i can make valuable edits to airline pages. Thank you again for your time, and I apologise for my prior mistake. @Yamla Heygibi123!

That sounds appropriate, but please give a specific example. You'll also want to check out WP:CITE and WP:RS before you do so. --Yamla (talk) 12:26, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Alright, I'll send it here (hopefully that's okay).

Currently this is all the page contains:

In May 2024 the airline was placed into voluntary administration with EY appointed as administrator.

I propose altering this to;

In may 2023, Air Vanuatu's owners (the Vanuatu government) opted to place the airline into Voluntary administration, with Ernst & Young appointed as the airlines administrator. As a result of this situation, travellers were left stranded in the nation with limited airline alternatives available.

Hopefully this is a valid example. Heygibi123! (talk) 12:36, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

No problem, thanks for taking the time. Note that the blocking admin is rather busy at the moment. I'm hoping this can be resolved soon but if you haven't heard back from me in a few days, please ping me! --Yamla (talk) 12:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Alright - Will do. Heygibi123! (talk) 12:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
