Unsolicited and possibly unwelcome advice

NeverTry4Me, I'd also like to offer some more general advice. You will probably not like what I'm about to say but I think it needs to be said. I don't think you should try to get unblocked at this time. When I look at your contributions and communications, what I see is some-one trying very hard to contribute but not being able to add content the way they want to because of a language barrier. This will sound patronizing but your English language skills are simply not yet good enough to help at the English Wikipedia as much as you obviously want to. This is not an insult. My Assamese and Bengali skills are certainly worse than your English. What I see is that the ability to communicate effectively with other editors is not to a standard that will prevent continuing frustration and acrimony.

If I my offer an alternative, there are Wikipedias in a huge number of languages and there is almost certainly one in your first language. The Assamese and Bengali Wikipedias could particularly use help.

I can understand why you want to contribute to the English Wikipedia instead of one of these other ones. Research by both the Wikimedia Foundation and independent researchers has shown that in India the non-English projects are seen as less important. While there is probably some legacy of English Colonialism involved the main problem is that these other projects are not very large. I believe it is the type of editor such as yourself that is best-placed to change this. You can read English obviously well enough to be an excellent translator of content from this project to whichever of those others you speak. If you read Wikipedia:Translate us, you may find a way to be a very productive editor. It does not take a large number of editors to change the size and strength of a non-English project. The second largest Wikipedia project, for example, is the Cebuano language one and that has a very small group of active editors.

I hope that advice helps and I apologize in advance for any offense I have given you. Stay safe. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 19:14, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

@Eggishorn: - Since I use straightforward English, it will be an unusual assessment that I should avoid English Wikipedia. I accept that composed things ought to be perceived by all individuals from the world, not simply be a make a difference to be used for and perceived by English language specialists. Furthermore, indeed, I truly do a few regular mistakes by typo, yet that ought not to be thought of absence of ability. Regards --NeverTry4Me - TT Page 02:41, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

@Eggishorn: I must thank you for your this advice You can read English obviously well enough to be an excellent translator of content from this project to whichever of those others you speak. If you read Wikipedia:Translate us, you may find a way to be a very productive editor. It does not take a large number of editors to change the size and strength of a non-English project.. I would love to do that too. But, I would also like to stay in English Wiki and contribute more. Of the course, I shall use professional English than I was using earlier. Thanking you again.
