:::Thank you so much for replying, I will follow everything that you’ve said. So I should wait for three months and then write a unblock request, right? It is 9 February 2026 today, so i’ll come back with my request on 15 may 2026, is that ok? I hope you will be active on wiki during that time, i would want a knowledgeable person like you to see that message before i proceed further, just to make sure I don’t mess up. Again thankyou for your guidance! [[User:Rfakjunkie|Rfakjunkie]] ([[User talk:Rfakjunkie#top|talk]]) 07:32, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

::::Yes, the 15th of May would work. I do expect to be around. However, I will likely not be willing to review your unblock request before you make it – it is important that it comes from you so we can see that you understand the major issues. If you have logistical questions about the unblock request I’d recommend pinging @[[User:Blue-Sonnet|Blue-Sonnet]], a very nice non-admin who helps with such requests. No need to ping me when you make your unblock request – I follow your talk page so will see the request when it pops up.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Dhinidhi Desinghu. NicheSports (talk) 05:22, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- At the time you added the information in Special:Diff/1329483863, which concerns an award granted in 2025, every source in the article was retrieved in 2024 [1]. Which means this edit was unsourced. The very next day you reverted [2] an editor for adding unsourced content. How can this combination of edits occur? NicheSports (talk) 05:26, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- My apologies for that. I’ll ensure proper references are added to my edits going forward. Regards. Rfakjunkie (talk) 05:23, 29 December 2025 (UTC)
Hi @Rfakjunkie, do you have and are you using multiple accounts to edit enwiki? NicheSports (talk) 21:58, 28 December 2025 (UTC)
- No, this is my only account. Rfakjunkie (talk) 04:18, 29 December 2025 (UTC)

This user’s unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).
Rfakjunkie (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I’ve unknowingly engaged in sockpuppetry without fully understanding its consequences, and my account has now been blocked because of it. I’m truly sorry for this grave mistake and genuinely regret my actions. What makes this especially painful for me is that i genuinely enjoy contributing to wiki and over the past year you can check, i have made more than 4000 edits, all with the intention of improving articles i genuinely cared about. During this time, i’ve learned a lot, made some mistakes but worked diligently to improve my understanding of wiki policies. I sincerely request another chance to continue contributing please. I fully understand where i went wrong and assure you that such mistakes won’t happen again. I’m committed to following all wiki guidelines carefully going forward. Once again, i deeply regret my mistake and kindly ask for your forgiveness and consideration in unblocking my account. Thank you for your time. I’m really very sorry for my mistakes.
Decline reason:
You were asked on this page about using multiple accounts, which you denied. When the SPI case was opened, you went there to protest your innocence. It’s only now that you’ve been blocked that you finally come clean, which is a bit late. Besides, if you were “unknowingly” but innocently using these accounts without realising you shouldn’t, you presumably would have admitted that when queried. The fact that you didn’t, tells me you sought to hide this, which means you’re not as innocent as you claim. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:07, 30 December 2025 (UTC)
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.
Thanks for your contributions to Tanvi Patri. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and the person appears not to meet WP:NSPORT.
I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page.
When the article is ready for publication, please click on the “Submit the draft for review!” button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:53, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) I hope I don’t regret posting this. @Rfakjunkie, it is clear you are very motivated to edit here but you are currently blocked and cannot do so. Your recent attempt to evade this block has put you two strikes away from WP:THREESTRIKES which, if you reach, will make it very difficult to ever return to editing here. You may be surprised to hear that I was considering supporting your unblock request after your initial block for socking/lying about said socking. However, I decided to wait and see whether you would respect the block or not. Unfortunately, you did not. However, I would still be prepared to support an unblock request in the future – but because of of your block evasion, that request is going to need to be really good. Here is my suggestion, as a non-admin. Take an abridged version of the WP:SO – do not edit on enwiki at all, in any way, for 3 months. Then, come back and make a very good unblock request that addresses all issues: the block evasion, the dishonesty, the repeated prior issues with unsourced edits, the unwillingness to respond to community feedback, everything. I would also be interested to see you propose changes in how you manage your talk page as well (this is not required per policy, but would indicate you are willing to take a different approach). I am writing this because I can imagine ways in which you are a strong contributor here; there are not many editors active on the pages that you edit, and I think you have a good base competence level. But it is critical you do not evade your block again, in any way. NicheSports (talk) 06:55, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
- (Non-administrator comment) Clarification: you can of course use your talk page, from this account, to make constructive comments/questions/requests about your block. I.e. you can respond to this if you want (although you don’t have to – up to you) NicheSports (talk) 07:08, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
- Hello, NicheSports. I am writing this message to you with a lot of hope. I really like to edit wiki pages of Indian sport personalities being a former sportsperson myself. The reason for it is simple, we as sportsperson are never really appreciated until we make it big. A lot of indian sport wiki pages which is my niche are filled with outdated information, all i ever wanted to do was update them to recent information so people know us better. You may have seen in all my edits, that I made sure I edited it with current information. Since wiki editing came as an hobby after my academics, I did not really know the rules well in the start and may have committed mistakes that costed my account, which i terribly regret till date. The new account i created, I made sure that i follow all the rules to the t and added proper sources to all my edits, all of them. I truly really appreciate that you have written me this message because I was feeling helpless all this time that I could not contribute. If you had even written to me once brother, that you were reconsidering the block i would have made never made a new account for real. Still I would really appreciate if you consider me as a friend and guide me from here on to find ways to contribute. I would forever be grateful to you for your help in this matter. ~2026-87854-4 (talk) 07:16, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
- The message above was written by me. i replied from the page that opened through my gmail, so i think it may have gone through a temporary account. but it was me only. Rfakjunkie (talk) 07:19, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
- hey @Rfakjunkie, I’d suggest editing while logged in so you don’t reveal your IP address to those who can see it (most can’t, but some with certain permissions can). As for the guidance about how to proceed, I would repeat what I wrote above:
Take an abridged version of the WP:SO – do not edit on enwiki at all, in any way, for 3 months. Then, come back and make a very good unblock request that addresses all issues: the block evasion, the dishonesty, the repeated prior issues with unsourced edits, the unwillingness to respond to community feedback, everything. I would also be interested to see you propose changes in how you manage your talk page as well (this is not required per policy, but would indicate you are willing to take a different approach).
The three month suggestion is to demonstrate that you will respect the current block, which is important to start regaining trust. Please note that not all unblock requests will work here; it needs to be a good, thoughtful, and honest one that addresses the major issues. So, I guess I hope to see a good unblock request in three months. NicheSports (talk) 07:23, 9 February 2026 (UTC)- Thank you so much for replying, I will follow everything that you’ve said. So I should wait for three months and then write a unblock request, right? It is 9 February 2026 today, so i’ll come back with my request on 15 may 2026, is that ok? I hope you will be active on wiki during that time, i would want a knowledgeable person like you to see that message before i proceed further, just to make sure I don’t mess up. Again thankyou for your guidance! Rfakjunkie (talk) 07:32, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
- Yes, the 15th of May would work. I do expect to be around. However, I will likely not be willing to review your unblock request before you make it – it is important that it comes from you so we can see that you understand the major issues. If you have logistical questions about the unblock request I’d recommend pinging @Blue-Sonnet, a very nice non-admin who helps with such requests. No need to ping me when you make your unblock request – I follow your talk page so will see the request when it pops up. NicheSports (talk) 07:38, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
- Done. I’ll make sure I’ll do whatever it takes to bring this account back. Will ping Blue-Sonnet, if i have any queries. Thankyou so much for all your help. Hoping for an unblock soon! Rfakjunkie (talk) 07:44, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
