Questions

• Hi Aishik Rehman, three days ago you posted your candidacy, but the self introduction is still missing. Would you please introduce yourself, preferably on your candidate's page? Thank you in advance for your answer. --Ghilt (talk) 16:43, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

  @Ghilt Due to the violent repression of student protesters in Bangladesh, the government shut down the Internet nationwide on July 18th. This disrupted access to Wikipedia and other sites. The internet connection has been restored today (*), and I have added my statement. Unfortunately, the connection remains restricted and slow, and mobile data access continues to be unavailable ): -- Aishik Rehman (talk) 20:13, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

  Thank you for clarifying! Ghilt (talk) 09:59, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

• While I appreciate the candidacy, it seems to be clear, that some of the assignment was not understood. Could you please state since when you are (point in time, not point of where) active in the Wikimedia Projects? Thanks Adtonko (talk) 17:17, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

  @Adtonko (: It was a drag-and-drop mistake during typing. I was completely offline for nearly five days due to the Internet shutdown, as detailed above. I have corrected the parameter. Please check it. -- Aishik Rehman (talk) 20:17, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

  Thank you for adding those. And I am sorry to hear what is happening in your part of the world Adtonko (talk) 22:57, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
