Sock puppetry

Hi Victor, I have a feeling you are the one who works for Nigerian Entertainment Today? If this is true, welcome to Wikipedia. I'm sure a great writer like yourself can contribute constructively to improving Nigerian-related content here. Having said that, I noticed that you created the User:Victor Okpala account, which was blocked for disruptive editing. You submitted another unblock request after the first one was declined. Wikipedia has a policy against users who use multiple accounts. In order to maintain accountability and increase community trust, editors are generally expected to use only one account. I advice you to go back to using your original account. You can report this account and request for it be closed. If you need help with getting started here, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. You can leave a message on my talk page. Versace1608 ^{Wanna Talk?} 00:33, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you my friend. I appreciate the warm welcome. Yes, the said account is still blocked. I had appealed because much of the errors made during my initial edit on Toke Makinwa stemmed from the fact the I had no prior knowledge. It was my first edit ever. Several unblock appeals have been sent but the account is yet to be redeemed. My knowledge of the platform has improved and I saw the final edits you made on said page. We'll done. Should you be willing to share, I'd like us to interact and stay in touch via email. Best. Thisisvictor (talk) 02:10, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You can reach me at bnksmrc@live.com. I am going to contact a Wikipedia administrator and explain the situation to them. I am confident your previous account can get restored. Please do not edit using this account again. Thanks. Versace1608 ^{Wanna Talk?} 02:50, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

General rules of thumb

Hi reviewed the edits you made to the Toke Makinwa article. While I commend you for citing sources, I noticed that you use title cases in the article's section headings. Per MOS:SECTIONCAPS, please use sentence case for section headings. Also, please refrain from using promotional words in Wikipedia articles. Last but not least, please do not bolface words and phrases in articles. Generally speaking, we only boldface the names or stage names of a person once in the article.
