Thank you for contributing to the article François Duvalier. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. Thank you. Kuru (talk) 11:59, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:
I understand i was blocked for disruptive editing and adding unacceptable links to Wikipedia pages and plead to be unblocked as I have gotten well acquainted with the types of links which i can add as references to Wikipedia pages and promise not to edit in such manner in the nearest future Lebron jay (talk) 13:22, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

I see no problem with giving you a second chance, but you need to give us more to go on. If you could tell us, in your own words, what makes a source reliable, that would go much further toward showing that you're ready to be unblocked. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 07:07, 24 July 2022 (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.
Please go through and I hope to hear from you.

Request reason:
A reliable source is one that properly connects a fact in an article. When an editor comes across such source, the editor would properly check to see if the source is appropriate to be used on Wikipedia by knowing what Wikipedia reliable sources are and ways they can be used. Reliable sources could be in the form of books, renowned journals, news agencies mostly national news agencies, magazines and other reliable source of information/resources that could be categorized as a secondary source of information. The Editor would check if it is adequate for Wikipedia by checking to be sure it's not spam and also checking the authenticity of such organizations, also checking the fact on the source and see if it's okay to be used on the Wikipedia Article. Having checked all these, the editor will copy the link and generate the reference on Wikipedia or write it out manually by using the cite template. Lebron jay (talk) 12:54, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Procedural decline only. This unblock request has been open for more than two weeks but has not proven sufficient for any reviewing administrator to take action. You are welcome to request a new block review if you substantially reword your request. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

With my understanding of Reliable sources and learnings from subsequent trainings that were organized in my community after my block, I am confident that i would not be found wanting for disruptive editing and Vandalism.

This is almost identical to your prior unblock request. Additionally, it doesn't really address what makes a source reliable. Yamla (talk) 18:03, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
Sorry for the previous answer, this was because i was asked to reword, my apologies and to what makes a source Credible. First off, The source should be published by a reputable publisher, such as a respected news outlet, a peer-reviewed journal, or a recognized academic institution. The author should also be an expert or authority on the subject matter.
Another factor that is considered so as to know when a source is reliable is if The information in the source is verifiable, which means that other sources should be able to confirm the information provided. This allows Wikipedia editors to fact-check the information and maintain the accuracy of the content.
Furthermore, A reliable source should present information in an objective and unbiased manner, without promoting any particular agenda or bias while making sure that these details or information are up-to-date with current facts. Please kindly consider my request. Lebron jay (talk) 20:05, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
Decline reason:
This definition of a reliable source is not correct. For one, it is impossible to be without bias, as everyone has biases. Please read reliable sources. 331dot (talk) 09:15, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
Thanks for the correction and feedback. The reliability of a source depends on the context it is being used. Sources are reliable based on the statement being made Ina Wikipedia article. In as much as Wikipedia is required to be on a neutral ground. Sources have no need being neutral or non neutral so as to be seen as "Reliable" as both the former and latter is reliable based on the context it's being used. However, Reliable Sources are sources that are cited as backups to information given in a Wikipedia article, they are published Sources that are independent with a reputation for being accurate. Because no source is absolutely reliable, Editors must exercise astuteness in deciding the right sources to be used in a particular statement. Lebron jay (talk) 10:41, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
Accept reason:
You've made a good effort at improving your understanding of source reliability, so I've unblocked your account. Going forward, take your time when evaluating whether a source is good for what you're considering using it for, check the list of sources evaluated for general reliability, and if need be ask for some advice at the Teahouse or help desk Seraphimblade Talk to me 05:22, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
Despite clear warnings, you've added another link to a mirror [ https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Asamang_Tamfoe&diff=prev&oldid=1090280746 here]; this is the exact same site you were warned about before. Additionally, you've added a tremendous number of bookseller sites to articles about authors in some odd attempt to document their books. A simple ISBN template or worldcat link suffice - we don't need to spam out links to amazon or ebay. I know you're in some kind of incentivized contest, but you must slow down and carefullly evaluate each source you add. When you see people revert your edits, you need to stop and find out why. I've blocked this account until you can outline your understanding of reliable sourcing. Kuru (talk) 14:15, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
