March 2022

Hello, I'm Gene93k. I noticed that you recently removed content from Dave Umahi without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. • Gene93k (talk) 23:15, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for providing a source. However, the content you deleted is still relevant. It will be restored in context. • Gene93k (talk) 23:31, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

the contents are no longer neccessary, as the court has reaffirmed him the presnt governor of Ebonyi state, please how do i use the edit summary, so my contents won't be removed? Markegwu (talk) 23:41, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

You are mistaken, that was a state court. The federal court that sacked him has not changed it's position. Stop editing and discuss on Talk:Dave Umahi. Watercheetah99 (talk) 01:32, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

be it either at the federal or state, it's a recognised high court in Nigeria and has the power to reinstate him as the governor. according to the ruling the court granted his request and reinstated him as governor. Kindly please, stop reverting the changes made. regards Markegwu (talk) 04:54, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi Markegwu. I’m sure you mean well and you may be right about this matter, but you need to stop trying to restore your preferred version of the article. If you continue to keep reverting back to that version, you’re account is likely going to end up blocked by an administrator for edit warring. You have already gone past the three-revert rule which is enough justification for an administrator to block you right now. Others are discussing this on the article’s talk and that’s what you should continue to do as well per WP:DR. Once a WP:CONSENSUS has been reached, the article will be revised in accordance with whatever that consensus turns out to be. — Marchjuly (talk) 05:41, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

okay, thanks. Markegwu (talk) 05:47, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

You post okay, thanks. above and then a few minutes later you go back to edit warring over this content. I understand your’re new to Wikipedia and that’s OK. Being new, however, isn’t an excuse to edit war, especially since you’ve been told multiple times that such a thing isn’t acceptable. If you continue to try and force these changes into the article, your account will be blocked by an administrator and you won’t be able to edit any Wikipedia articles at all. People have politely been trying to help you avoid such an outcome, but at some point you need to try and understand what they’re telling you if you want to continue to edit. The next time you try to force these changes through is going to be the one that leads to someone asking an administrator to take a look at your behavior at WP:AN3. — Marchjuly (talk) 06:40, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

Markegwu, I notice that you are keen to cite items by somebody you call "mark egwu". (Shouldn't this be "Mark Egwu"?) The resemblance to your username is remarkable. Either you are Mark Egwu or you are not. If you are, then you should be very wary of citing yourself; if you are not, then you should change your username. -- Hoary (talk) 00:11, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

(no title)

The tenure of Umahi as a governor has not elapsed yet but on his short description on Wikipedia, it's stated that he served from may 29 2015 to 8 March 2022 Which is a very wrong information. Can my request be granted that it should be changed to *serving governor of ebonyi state from may 29 2015*. He's still the recognized governor but has pending court case, in which the supreme court hasn't given their verdict yet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Markegwu (talk • contribs) 16:07, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

• The court ruling is interim. Wikipedia time is not late breaking news. The consensus is to hold off until the facts reach a stable and verifiable form. That should take a few days. In the mean time the dispute is noted. • Gene93k (talk) 19:46, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
• additional note. You have been marking all your edits as minor, including substantial changes in article content. The minor designation is for fixing typographical errors, punctuation, formatting, etc. In the future, please do not mark non-trivial changes (especially factual content changes) as minor. • Gene93k (talk) 19:46, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Review of Umahi's page

Governor Umahi's wikipedia page states that he served as thr governor from may 29 2015 to 8 march 2022, which is a false report. Umahi is still recognised by the Nigerian court as the governor of ebonti state after the state court ruled in his favor. can i remove 8 of march 2022 to suit his present status. channels.tv
