March 2017

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Christopher Minko has been reverted.
Your edit here to Christopher Minko was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/hunsencambodia/?fref=ts) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 05:13, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for contravening Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy, as you did at Christopher Minko. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Request reason:

Apologies, this is entirely my fault, and I wasn't diligent enough in reviewing BLP policies. I was attempting to provide a balanced viewpoint and didn't understand the difference between this and an NPOV. I also referenced primary sources & personal research, and now understand that this isn't appropriate. I would very much like to be unblocked, and undertake to comply as best as I can with Wikipedia guidelines in future. Regards, Jonathan

Decline reason:

This doesn't address your violations of WP:OUTING. Yamla (talk) 12:28, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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.
