Request reason:

I have already understood why I was banned by the English Wikipedia community. I was banned from the entire site for my disruptive edits, lack of competence and racism. Since then, I have attempted to reform myself in several other Wikimedia sites, including Bengali Wikipedia, Commons and Wikivoyage. After some time, some editors have commented that I have become a valuable contributor. So I think I should be unbanned in English Wikipedia and if I were unbanned, I will focus to the articles on West Bengal and possibly the whole India and avoid the areas that led me to my current situation. I may also use WP:AFC/R sparingly to create useful redirects in accordance to the relevant policies.

The above comment is to copied to an appropriate venue by an unbiased administrator. --Sbb1413 (talk) 13:58, 8 February 2023 (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.

I'm leaving this for another admin, just in case anyone claims I'm biased. However, you are free to copy the following (hopefully helpful) statement. Based on checkuser data, I see no evidence of recent block evasion for this user. --Yamla (talk) 14:01, 8 February 2023 (UTC)

@Yamla: is there a link to the ban discussion by any chance? RickinBaltimore (talk) 17:07, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

The ban notice was added to the user page by CactiStaccingCrane. I think the most pertinent link discussing the ban is here. Let me know if you want more, happy to dive more deeply. --Yamla (talk) 18:06, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Thanks Yamla, I am going to post this request to WP:AN. RickinBaltimore (talk) 18:24, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
