• Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
• It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
• If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
• Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
• When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
• If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.

Low level administrative territorial subdivision units

Greetings. Pardon the interruption, but do you know any information involving administrative territorial subdivision units below the district (or madiria) level within the nation of Yemen? Such as the following:

• sub-district-level division units [city municipalities (baladiat almadina or madun) & sub-districts (uzla)]
• populated place units [villages (qariyya), neighborhoods (hayy), localities (almahaliyat/makan), settlements (almustawtanat), communities (mujtamaeat), hamlets (alnujue), etc.]
• sub-populated place units [blocks (hara) & mallahahs (mallaha)]

If so, lemme know. It's for a research project. Thanks in advance. jlog3000 (talk) 15:23, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

As far as my knowledge can go, you've listed everything I know about administrative divisions in Yemen

these are the administrative divisions of yemen from the highest to the lowest divisions:

1. Governorates (Muhafazah, arabic: محافظة): Yemen is divided into several governorates, which are the highest administrative divisions in the country.
2. Districts (Mudiriah, arabic: مديرية): Each governorate is further divided into districts.
3. Sub-districts (Uzlah, arabic: عزلة): Below the district level, there are sub-districts.
4. City municipalities (Baladiat al-Madina or Mudun, arabic: بلدية المدينة/مدن): Some urban areas have a special administrative status known as city municipalities.
5. Populated place units:
   • Villages (Qariyya, arabic: قرية): Smaller settlements with rural characteristics.
   • Neighborhoods (Hayy, arabic: حي): Urban areas subdivided into neighborhoods.
   • Localities (Al-Mahaliyat/Makan, arabic: محل/مكان): Generic term referring to specific locations or places.
   • Settlements (Al-Mustawtanat, arabic: المستوطنات): General term for any inhabited place, including towns and villages.
   • Communities (Mujtamaeat, arabic: المجمعات): Refers to social or tribal communities.
   • Hamlets (Al-Nujue, arabic: النجوع): Small settlements, often smaller than villages.
6. Sub-populated place units:
   • Blocks (Harat, arabic: حارة): Smaller divisions within urban areas, similar to neighborhoods.
   • Mallahahs (Mallaha, arabic: ملحة): Term referring to smaller units or quarters within a larger locality.

It's basically what you've sent but with their meanings along with them. Good luck on your project! Abo Yemen✉ 15:42, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

No disrespect, and although what you said clearly is fact; but my point was if there is any information of some lists that contain these lower level units after districts (i.e.: names of the sub-districts & villages, etc.), as I couldn't yet find any such in some statistical bureaus/institutes in that regard. Hope this clarifies things a bit more accurate. jlog3000 (talk) jlog3000 (talk) 16:01, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

i don't really understand what are you asking for.

are you asking for names of villages, Neighborhoods, etc. or are you asking if there are any more sub-divisions other than the ones you've listed above? Abo Yemen✉ 16:37, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Clearly I am asking for lists of the names of all the populated place units/areas based on every of those lower sub-division levels after the districts. And it doesn't have to be involved with population and/or area stats. jlog3000 (talk) 16:42, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

before i send the names, There are these newly made "Federal Regions" that are going to be implemented in the next Yemeni constitution. They are above governorates in the list we made above and they have been announced in the National Dialogue Conference. you can find more info about them in Federalization of Yemen. Abo Yemen✉ 16:49, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

I see, I never knew about that sub-division level over the governorates. But I'm happy to hear that it also exist, which I thank you for sharing that thought. And just curious, but what is the Arabic name of 'federal regions' (singular and plural alike), in a Latin alphabet transliterated version might I add? Oh, another thing, if it's like 100s of thousands of names of the units altogether, and if you like, you could try to send them via email, by clicking "email this user" within my profile's intro. Just in case it doesn't allow email addresses to be shared or shown. Your thoughts? jlog3000 (talk) 16:54, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

i dont think that i know the names of these sub divisions as there are 333 mudiriahs, 2200 uzlah and Ahya'a (plural form of Hayy), 36986 villages, and 91489 localities and blocks Abo Yemen✉ 17:00, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Aww that's a shame. And I assume the link you have provided or shared might be the close I need to check to find out, if I'm not mistaken. jlog3000 (talk) 17:05, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

the link is from the National Information Center website owned by the yemeni government. I would recommend using google translate instead of visiting the english version as the english version is still incomplete Abo Yemen✉ 17:12, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

singular: إقليم فدرالي Iqlim Fidrali

plural: أقاليم فدرالية Aqalim Fidraliah Abo Yemen✉ 17:08, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Will keep that in mind. Thanks for your efforts, help and advice. jlog3000 (talk) 17:21, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

You're welcome and good luck! Abo Yemen✉ 17:24, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks. Will do. Also, one last thing. Aside from that last link, are there other websites similar to the NIC of Yemen that you're aware of? Just curious. jlog3000 (talk) 17:41, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

you can visit the website of the MOE and, if you can, contact your nearest Yemeni Embassy (don't forget to mention your nationality because they'd rather help non-yemenis more than actual yemenis haha) Abo Yemen✉ 18:16, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi,

Could you provide a source for the coat of arms of the Kathiri State based in Seiyoun? I've found the flag in a variety of sources but not the emblem you uploaded. Thanks!

Question about block notice removal

Hi Abo Yemen. In this edit, you removed a block notice from another user's talk page. Can you please explain why? Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 15:39, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

I think i have done it accidentally as i have just enabled the twinkle gadget just today and I've probably pressed a button that i weren't supposed to press or something. I have undone that edit Abo Yemen✉ 15:42, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Hadhramaut into Hadramout Region. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 18:48, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

@Diannaa thank you for telling me this! ill be sure to put the {{copied}} template in the talk page. Abo Yemen✉ 19:03, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Issues with Hadhrami Bedouin Legion

Please do not move this draft to mainspace again until you have added appropriate reliable sources. All content on Wikipedia needs to be verifiable, and no original research is allowed. I also saw that you tried to bypass WP:NPP. That's quite clearly inappropriate, and it doesn't work. If you have any questions about this draft or the relevant guidelines, or I can help you some other way, please let me know. Actualcpscm (talk) 19:27, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Yes i have some questions like how am i going to get sources if the article is translated from the arabic wiki? Abo Yemen✉ 03:01, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Different wikis have different standards for sourcing and verifiability. I’m not sure about how the Arabic wiki handles this, but the English wiki requires all content to be verifiable at reliable sources. That means you’ll need to find appropriate sources for the English article, even though it might be allowed on the Arabic wiki in its current form. Wikipedia is not itself a reliable source. Maybe you could find a historical report or a book on this topic? Actualcpscm (talk) 06:36, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

i have found several websites online talking about this topic like these: [1][2]

and this pdf: [3]

can I use them as sources? Abo Yemen✉ 08:41, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

That's a good start. Unfortunately, the first one (britishempire.co.uk) is not a reliable source; it's practically a blog, which the author acknowledges here under "The Purpose of the Site". The other two are, if I'm interpreting correctly, WP:PRIMARY sources, which isn't optimal. You can still use them for backing up factual claims, but it's probably not enough to build an article out of. Fyi, it's completely fine to use sources that aren't written in English; for instance, if the article on the Arabic wiki has appropriate sources, you can also use those. Actualcpscm (talk) 09:36, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

the arabic article uses an arabic book as a source and it is only used once Abo Yemen✉ 09:44, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Hm. I don‘t know the policies and guidelines of the Arabic wiki, but that‘s probably not enough (on its own) to satisfy WP:V and particularly WP:N. Still, if it‘s a reliable source, it can certainly be used. Actualcpscm (talk) 11:31, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

also while we're at it, how can i use images from other sites like the britishempire.co.uk in the article that i am making Abo Yemen✉ 09:46, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

actually nevermind i found out that these pictures are in flickr and are not copyrighted Abo Yemen✉ 09:55, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Great! Actualcpscm (talk) 11:32, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Banu Hilal

Hi

Is it true that there are still Banu Hilal in Yemen in 2023? Panam2014 (talk) 11:57, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Hey!

i want to help but i am not that much of an expert on tribal stuff as a whole. but if you want to do your own research i'd recommend using the geographical term of south arabia instead of yemen. Abo Yemen✉ 12:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Ibrahim Al Hamdi

Hi

I think it is time to expand the article. But the problem is there are no centered sources about him in english, but only some books in arabic. Panam2014 (talk) 10:49, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

sure, i can help!

can you send me the links for these books and i might be able to translate them and help Abo Yemen✉ 11:04, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

• Al Jazeera doc
• إبراهيم الحمدي: حياته ودوره السياسي في اليمن
• القائد الأسطورة الشهيد إبراهيم محمد الحمدي

Panam2014 (talk) 11:21, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Alright I'll read them and will try to expand that article.

Also for the Al Jazeera doc you can use the website translation feature of google translate if you want to help with the expansion of the article. And i also remember watching a documentary by al jazeera about ibrahim al hamdi, ill try to use it as a source too Abo Yemen✉ 11:24, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

wait nevermind you actually sent the documentary haha, I thought that you've sent a document or something LOL. stupid me should have opened the link first Abo Yemen✉ 11:26, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

For the two books, is it possible for you to have the book online or IRL? But both books seems to be the most recents and rare bibliography about him. Panam2014 (talk) 11:30, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

i'm searching for these books online right now and i haven't found anything yet. But in case i could not find anything ill just translate the arabic article and use the sources there in the english article Abo Yemen✉ 11:35, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

the arabic article is rated as a "START" article. but it has a lot of sources compared to the english article, maybe we can use the sources from there? Abo Yemen✉ 11:39, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Yes. If you have found one of the books, please tell me. Panam2014 (talk) 11:46, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

i will Abo Yemen✉ 11:46, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Do you have found some source? Panam2014 (talk) 17:26, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

not yet Abo Yemen✉ 12:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

It could be possible to use verified videos from YT. Panam2014 (talk) 17:24, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

alr ill use the aljazeera documentary Abo Yemen✉ 17:35, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

ive also found an english version of the documentary here Abo Yemen✉ 17:38, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

also we should do the expansion thing in one of our sandboxes so that we don't mess up the main article Abo Yemen✉ 17:48, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

User:Abo Yemen/sandbox Abo Yemen✉ 17:50, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

We could translate french article. Panam2014 (talk) 17:09, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Yemen Parliament

Hi

For House of Representatives (Yemen), there are currently 245 MP. Did you know how many died or resigned since 2021? Panam2014 (talk) 17:10, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

you can check for that in the official website Abo Yemen✉ 11:59, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Other, we should expand articles about North Yemen liwa (governorates) and explain in General People's Congress that it was not a party until 1990, but a 1k members parliament. Also, we should create articles for Northern Yemen and Southern Yemen as political/geographical regions. Panam2014 (talk) 12:12, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

do you have any suggestions for the missing north/south yemen articles that we should create Abo Yemen✉ 13:35, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

South Arabia

Hi

We should explain that the term is used by STC separatists. Panam2014 (talk) 16:19, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

in the South Arabia article? They aren't notable enough tho Abo Yemen✉ 17:47, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Abo Baker Salem's birth

Also I noticed you changed the birth state of Abu Baker Salem -- while I'm aware there's an edit war with ips in Saudi Arabia constantly addending him to be "Saudi" and divorcing him of his Yemeni origins, he was indeed born in the time of the Kathiri's rule of Tarim. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it is the norm to put the historically accurate birth state of historic figures regardless of that state's transformation or legal accession to another entity

example:

Otto von Bismarck

Fahd of Saudi Arabia

Jawaharlal Nehru

Mehrashehra (talk) 00:24, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

@Mehrashehra i think i changed it because some ip changed it or something. ill change it back Abo Yemen✉ 09:55, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Help editing "tribe" section on Tarim

Hey

There seems to be a lot of uncited, folk wisdom about tribes in the "tribes" section of Tarim. I have access to English language sources about Ba' Alawi, Shanafir, and Bani Dhannah, and I can add their collective histories in Tarim to the article, but I would appreciate your initial input and trailblazing in that topic as I don't currently live in Hadhramaut and I don't have access to reliable Arabic-language sources about them. Mehrashehra (talk) 00:14, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

@Mehrashehra I, too, am not living there at the moment and i am probably not the best person to ask for help in this tribal stuff. I do know some ba alawi people from my tribe in the area that i live in but i don't think that they know how to edit Wikipedia articles. i can help in expanding a tribes section if i were to have some written sources like books or something (preferably in English) Abo Yemen✉ 10:00, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Shadowwarrior8. At least one or more of your edits  in the page Southern Transitional Council have been reverted. These were difficult to distinguish from Disprutive Editing since you have removed large amount of sourced content backed up by Reliable sources. To help other editors understand the reason for the changes, you can use an edit summary for your contributions.

Note that Wikipedia is not censored. "Wikipedia may contain content that some readers consider objectionable or offensive‍". "Removing encyclopedic content without any reason" constitutes Vandalism and users who engage in vandalism "may be blocked indefinitely without warning".

Hi, responding to your reversion of my reversion of an edit by MdFahad00 to Ibb. I had put in my edit summary that "the one ref, to asiaexplore, does not look reliable". You asked why I said that. I had checked the About page of asiaexplore and was not clear that there was a fact-checking policy. Writers are not named. Articles such as Why People should visit Bangladesh? read non-neutral and promotional. Best wishes, Tacyarg (talk) 18:02, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

October 2023

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:2023 Israel–Hamas war for general discussion of this or other topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See the talk page guidelines for more information. As noted above, the Arab-Israeli conflict is considered a contentious topic. Using Wikipedia as a battleground can result in a loss of editing privileges.

It is WAY too early to make a page on Tej when storms with more coverage than Tej have no pages. I think it is unfair to say my edits are "disruptive" let alone vandalized because it is surely not. Insendieum (talk) 15:53, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

Aadam Hamed has been moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Aadam Hamed, is not suitable as written to remain published. The boxer only has one professional fight, did not compete at any international amateur competitions and has not fouight for a major world title. Furthermore, at Wikipedia, notability is not inherited, so him being the son of a legend does not make him notable enough for an article.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 (ex, if he fights for a British, European or world title) and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Antonio Pretty in Prince, Molly Ringwald Naseem Hamed Martin (loser's talk page) 23:53, 10 September, 2023 (UTC)

It doesn't matter how many followers he has. If you move it again to mainspace without submitting it for review first, I will put it on VFD.

Abo Yemen (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is 82.197.48.174. Can this ip please be unblocked? I do not know the reason why is it unblocked judging by the fact that that ip has no contributions and the only person i see that is affected by its block is me. Abo Yemen✉ 10:32, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Procedural decline as, since your account isn't blocked directly, you can edit from another IP. And we usually don't lift P2P proxy blocks for one user (and for that same reason I can't soften that block either as allowing logged-in users would defeat the purpose of blocking the proxy). What I can do is direct you to WP:IPECPROXY where there are instructions for requesting IP block exemption by email so this won't be an issue. It may take a while; just letting you know (And I do apologize for this ... it seems like this issue has, over the past few years, affected a disordinate amount of editors in good standing from the Arabian Peninsula, particularly Yemen, since it seems that a lot of ISPs there have decided to offer this sort of service to users elsewhere in the world for understandable financial reasons, regardless of the effect it has on those of us working to prevent abuse and misuse of the Internet and people like you caught in that crossfire). — Daniel Case (talk) 11:11, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Yemeni Civil War map - orange area

Hello Abo Yemen. I see that you are Yemeni and made some edits to the Yemeni civil war (2014–present) article and its Yemeni Civil War map. In this map there's a small orange area between the yellow and pink areas, near the coast, near the city of Al Mukalla. It is not described in the English legend (on the file and on English Wikipedia), but on the file's Catalan, German, Greek and Arabic legends it says it's "Controlled by supporters of Ali Abdullah Saleh". But Saleh was killed in 2017. Is this orange area correct? Human Transistor (talk) 01:50, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

@Human Transistor the orange area refers to the lands controled by both the Republic of yemen and the STC. Sorry for the confusion Abo Yemen✉ 04:04, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

@Abo Yemen I asked another user who also edits the article and the map and he also said it was controlled by both the government and STC. Lets hope someone fixes the legends. Thank you. Human Transistor (talk) 08:43, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for creating 2022 Jeddah missile attack.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Yemeni civil war

As I said in Houthi involvement in the Israel–Hamas war, this conflict is mainly focused on how Houthi involved in war in Israel. If there is any source or article that belligerent of Yemeni civil war is involved in this conflict, then you can add it.

I noticed you are the author of the map that currently appears on 2024 Yemeni airstrikes.

Thanks for your work in Talk: Naseem Hamed

I've been following it up during my wikibreak, I myself tried to insert "British-Yemeni" a few years back but my edit was quickly reverted, even though the title is completely neutral. Before or after his fights he did talk about Yemen and even raised the Yemeni flag and boasted being Yemeni. |MK| 📝 16:42, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Notable People

Many cities have a notable people section at the bottom noting people who are born in that community who were born there. You can check out such pages for London, England; Paris, France and many others. Wabbit98 (talk) 03:19, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Block

After you posted a message at User talk:Kabul madras warning Kabul madras about edit-warring on the article Ba 'Alawi sada, you continued the edit-war yourself. Naturally you have therefore been blocked from editing. If you believe there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock. To do so, first read the guide to appealing blocks, and then add the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of the talk page of your original account. JBW (talk) 14:32, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

@JBW Where did I continue edit warring? i opened a discussion on the talk page and Kabul decided not to get involved in it. What exactly did i do wrong?? Abo Yemen✉ 14:34, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

@JBW replying to this: All I did was move a paragraph from one section to another. As far as I am aware, It is not considered edit warring? I also opened a section for us to reach a consensus as long as the original research stuff gets removed from the article, which is why this started in the first place and you've been ignoring all along Abo Yemen✉ 15:45, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

In each of these edits: [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] you removed the same content from the article. That is edit-warring. The last of those edits was after you had warned another editor about the same edit-war, and also after I had informed you that the only reason I had removed the block on your account was that you had not continued the edit war after posting that warning. That being so how could you possibly not expect to be blocked when you did continue the edit-war? And no, you did not just "move a paragraph from one section to another"; you removed content of the article. JBW (talk) 16:13, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

@JBW Okay this is embarrassing but I didn't realise that the text that I removed in my last edit that you've linked was a part of the edit war i was involved in as all i was doing was restoring the article to buhadram's edit. The "move a paragraph from one section to another" was referring to this edit, which i taught was the reason for the block. Now, I didn't mean to engage in the edit war again as it was a mistake, I'll be sure to start a discussion in the talkpage of any article before reverting any edits once again, which is what I should have done in the first place. Abo Yemen✉ 16:23, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

Many editors avoid these situations by adopting a voluntary 1R rule where they agree to only revert once on any article. If you are planning on making an unblock request, you might consider adopting that habit. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:15, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Yeah I think I will do that actually Abo Yemen✉ 07:29, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

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).

Abo Yemen (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

Although point No. 7 in WP:3RRBLP states that what i have done in Ba 'Alawi sada was completely fine, edit warring wasn't the best way for me to deal with original research, I should've started a discussion on the talk page or bring it up to the BLP noticeboard if the other editor did not want to discuss it (To kabul's credit, he did try to discuss the OR he kept on adding to the article).
I will voluntary adopt the WP:1RR regardless of whether my unblock request get accepted or not.
I would also like for any admin reading this to look into the OR in the Disputes and rebuttals section of the article Abo Yemen✉ 07:56, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Procedural decline. Unblock requests do not belong on archive pages and your account is not currently blocked. Yamla (talk) 22:20, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

---

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.
