Hello, I noticed you have blocked my Wikidata, I have checked the reason for the blocked. I found that my wiki is being accessed from unknown person.

I changed the password but am unable to edit in Wikidata.

I need everything to back normal

Hello Jasper, I've been trying to edit on Wikidata and I realize my account got blocked by you on the basis of a multiple account. I've just a single account which is (Albakry028). Kindly see to it for rectification. Thanks.

Hey, Jasper. Re: the mbira page. I understand that you just reverted my single last edit which was HIGHLY uncited, however you undid EVERYTHING, I made things in separate edits on purpose so they could be reviewed. Please just undo the last one rather than every single edit. This Mbira page is terribly inaccurate, I did substantial clean up and reorganization. I implore you to look back and just remove the last single post, or dutifully explore each contribution and remove if need be, a blanket reset of all my work is not in the best interest of the page. 47.208.63.235 (talk) 04:54, 12 August 2019 (UTC) sorry, I wasn't logged in. Now I did. There is significant factual innacuracies all throughout that page that I corrected and resorted into more coherency. I appreciate you taking the time to reassess Seth.geddes (talk) 05:01, 12 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Respectfully, I reverted the page to a previous edit that did not contain the admittedly essay like section. I went out on a limb with that edit and I hope to put something like it back into the article someday with proper citation. One of the largest issues of the page was a very oversimplification of calling all lamellaphones mbira, which is factually wrong, and culturally assualting to the Shona people. Mbira is a Shona word, from the Bantu language group. Though other lamellaphones exist throught Africa and have spread, the article made many 'uncited inaccurate statements lumping them all together, it included references to Griot of west africa, and the instruments by other names in the Congo. As the title of this page is "Mbira" we must ensure that it accurately reflects what mbira actually is in fact, a traditional Shona group of instruments. Anyhow, I pray that this finds you well, and the before simply reverting any more edits you actually look at the improvement I did to the page. I removed an obvious advertisement for Kalimba Magic, I reordered some sections so they were more coherent, I added more specificity to needed areas, etc... It is a much better article than it was. If there is any glaring needs for citation of anything I added, I request you add a citation needed tag and let me know so I can address it. This instrument is dear to me and I want it represented accurately and I literally spent many hours the last few days making multiple individual edits so an admin could thoroughly vet my contributions and judge them independently. Thanks in advance for your consideration. Seth.geddes (talk) 06:56, 12 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Research Project

Hi Jasper Deng

I'm an anthropology student doing an online research project on wikipedians and their motivations and ideals for writing and editing wikipedia pages. I was wondering if you would be interested in answering a few questions I have - sort of like a small online interview.

Chess Skewer Revert

edit

Hello friend, thank you for your work on chess! I noticed you reverted my edit on chess skewers, and the reason you gave for the revert was that I used the word "usually" rather than "always". So my question is: why didn't you just change that word? Why did you revert my entire edit if you only had an issue with a single word? Thanks and happy editing! Chillowack (talk) 17:32, 18 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

To be honest, I didn't find the other language/verbiage changes to be helpful either. I don't get what was gained by removing the statement that a skewer is the opposite of a pin.--Jasper Deng (talk) 17:54, 18 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for explaining your rationale. I don't really have a problem with what you're saying, so I concede. Out of curiosity: are you the Jasper Deng listed in the USCF? Best, Chillowack (talk) 19:53, 18 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

There are these people who are vandalizing the tropical cyclone pages for 2023

edit

I just reverted everything they did on 2023 Pacific hurricane season, and they also vandalized 2023 Pacific typhoon season as well. I might need a bit of help trying to revert everything. AccordTM (talk) 15:47, 5 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Update: Turns out they also vandalized 2023 North Indian Ocean cyclone season as well. AccordTM (talk) 15:51, 5 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
