Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Masoom Sharma (2nd nomination)

Both the nominator and one of the delete !voters were blocked for separate UPE issues. Hence, you may want to consider relisting this AfD. * Pppery * _{in solidarity} 18:11, 24 May 2026 (UTC)

 Done. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 05:08, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

Hope you don't mind my asking, but did you mean to leave the article deleted or...? GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 05:37, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

An obvious question and a regrettable oversight on my part and one I am glad Pppery saw fit to take care of. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 16:46, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

No worries, I figured it was most likely just a mistake, but before getting another admin to undelete it, I did want to make sure you hadn't seen some BLP issue that you wanted to deal first. GreenLipstickLesbian💌🧸 19:34, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

ROFL...

Definitely made me laugh. Thanks for getting SFR's section. Ealdgyth (talk) 19:39, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

@Ealdgyth hey I learned something for next time! I'm glad we're on the same page about its necessity. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:40, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

(ec) I saw your edit summary as I was going to Amazon to redeem a gift card... so being an editor of easily lost attention, I immediately came here to make this note above. I then tried to redeem the diff I'd copied to the clipboard rather than the actual gift card code and have just made Amazon's website AI look at me VERY funny... it's a good thing it's Friday... Ealdgyth (talk) 19:42, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

Ooh. I have an Amazon gift card to redeem. Thanks for the reminder! You attention span pays off for me. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:49, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

I have to get out of the house in about 20 minutes at most so .. hopefully things stay on track and dont' turn into a morass that's hard to detangle... Ealdgyth (talk) 21:35, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

I certainly hope so. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 21:40, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

My IP address is wrongfully blocked

Hello, my account in India (service provider: Airtel) has been wrongfully blocked. I read that certain service providers are blocked in response to vandalism which can affect users unrelated to the abuse.

I am for the first time logging in to Wikipedia to submit an article for creation, and need to get my IP address unblocked. Please let me know how to go about it.

PS: This is me writing from my niece's phone, since I am unable to do so with mine.

Do let me know what to do. Thanks a lot! ~2026-32990-67 (talk) 02:29, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

I am very sorry that due to WP:VANDALISM that your service provider IP was blocked. The simplest way to solve this issue is to log in to your account while on an unblocked network. You will be able to stay logged in when using Airtel. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 13:39, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

Blocked IP

Hi... My IP address has been blocked. I am from India and my service provider is airtel. I get the "IP Blocked" message when trying to log in, even though I have not indulged in any form of vandalism or abuse.

Therefore, I request you to kindly unblock my IP so that I can create an alternative user ID, which I would like to use as my public profile. Askaskask1993 (talk) 12:02, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

@Askaskask1993 you're looking to create a public alternative account for this one? If so you can get that through WP:ACC. Barkeep49 (talk) 13:37, 5 June 2026 (UTC)
