welcome

Hello Aden Singh 45, welcome to Wikipedia. I have approved your request for an account from the account request interface, even though you were previously blocked, per our assume good faith guideline. It seems to me that your original block was due to edits you made to overcome difficulties with our external link verification interface for anonymous users, which an administrator interpreted as disruptive, and subsequently for being unable to use a block appeal template. However I also recognize that your access was further restricted when you personally attacked editors responding to you, which is forbidden. (@Graham87, Drmies, and Stwalkerster: courtesy pings)

Please take note of the following:

• When your account is four days old and you have made at least ten edits, you will no longer be required to complete a CAPTCHA to add external links. In the meantime I suggest you refrain from trying to add links, I'm quite certain no improvements have been made to that interface since you were blocked, and you will have the same difficulties.
• Wikipedia takes accessibility seriously, or at least I would like that to be true. If you encounter problems editing with your screen reader which are due to the way an article is coded, you can ask for help on the article's talk page. If you run into other probems which you're certain are due to Wikipedia's implementation of accessibility features, please do not hesitate to report your issue at the village pump for technical issues.
• You are expected to comply with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for editing, including the civility policy (also see no personal attacks) and policy on information concerning living persons. Wikipedia is not to be used for biased edits nor for advocacy, political or otherwise. All editors are expected to collaborate and to treat all others with dignity and respect; those who do not will be blocked from editing, and you will not be approved for another account if this one is blocked. If you have a disagreement over content with other editors, please try to discuss on the article's talk page, seek dispute resolution, or as a last resort you can report your issue to the administrators' noticeboard.

And finally:

• If you attempt to ban editors from your talk page based on their nationality again (or for any other reason), as you did here, you will be immediately blocked. This is the only warning you will receive.

If you require any other assistance to get started, please leave a note here, or ask at the help desk. Thank you.

I don't want to go into it too deeply, but what happened to me in January really showed me that Americans are no better or worse than anybody else. I have no hard feelings towards any of the users anymore. I am grateful for this second chance, I truely am. I plan on doing my best to source my edits as best I can. I'm wondering if going forward I can turn to you or Graham87 for help, especially Graham since him and I use the same screen-reader. I do tend to get a little testy during disputes, but I shall do my level best to keep my testiness to a minimum. Thank you for helping me with my account and for the second chance.

To ensure clarity for @Ivanvector:, @Graham87: and others, the discussino at Talk:Dua Lipa that I started about the name Dua is not an issue of BLP as I am not disputing that she is of Albanian descent, rather I am disputing the claim at Dua Lipa that claims that her name is Albanian, as I could not find a source of that other than Lipa's own words. Another user and myself have found sources that state that the given name Dua is of Arabic origin and means prayer. So just to be clear, as I'm a bit scared that you guys will go after me for it or that it may be misinterpreted as me talking about nationality or another BLP issue, I'm arguing about the name itself because I can't find independent sources that verify what is claimed in the article. It may also come from me not knowing how reliable interviews are in terms of sources on some issues vs. others. Would she be an expert of the etymology of her name just because it's her name? Is the statement that her name is Albanian acurate and sourced? That's what I'm doing there. Aden Singh 45 (talk) 23:02, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
