media (and
Twitter) are extremely interested in what happens on Knowledge. You're being watched, now maybe I'm being watched. You know that. It's not as though there's no way your employer is going to know about your Knowledge activities. Edits that endanger your job security, edits that enhance it, they're all relevant. And that means, to me a least, any edits about the Indian media, any edits about Indian politics, and any edits about religious disputes are areas that you need to avoid. If nothing else interests you, then that's a shame but you're active on other Knowledge projects, right? I see you've asked whether abandoning your internship would make a difference. If you then went to work with an IT company, a retail business, an airline, clearly not. But if you still want a media career with an organisation with politics similar to Swarajaya, that's got to affect your editing, your votes at AfDs, etc. What that means for any topic ban is up Joe whoever else considers your unblock request, but frankly I think you'd be foolish to give up your internship in return for being unblocked with no topic ban. And do remember that your actions recently, particularly your accusations of COI while not admitting your own, are going to put you under the spotlight here more than if you'd simply declared your internship and your COI when it occurred. Finally, because I know others will be watching anything written here, let me make it clear I'm not pro or anti Hindus or Muslims. I am against religious bigotry or violence. As I hope are you.

it was in the view of paid editing. I will carefully reread all important policies so it does not happen again. #My association with
Swarajya: I started an internship with Swarajya magazine on 12 April 2020. It is an unpaid short internship and I am not directed in any way to edit Knowledge. I had no previous association with Swarajya. I write articles and email them to various magazines and such articles have been published on Swarajyaâs website previously. But I was not paid or had any specific association with them then. I had no other communication with them then. I had emailed them about Knowledge policies when they doxxed an editor so they took down their news pieces then. It was only for protecting Knowledge editors and informing them about our policies. I had no other stake in that issue. So I want to clarify again that I had an association with Swarajya only after 12 April 2020. I have not COI previously. #As soon as I joined the internship, I should have declared COI on my userpage and should have not edited the Swarajya article in any way. But due to my poor interpretation, I failed to declare COI. I believe that it is not real COI because I was not paid in any way. When a

I am here only to improve articles and have no other intention. If I am topic-banned from Indian politics, my area of interest will shrink significantly and I will not have much left to edit here. If you donât trust my COI association declared here, I am also ready to reveal my personal identity and afficiations to ArbCom or any other relevant authority. #I will not edit
Swarajya or any COI topic anyway now onwards. I can agree for topic ban on Indian media or media personalities for unblocking. I made a terrible mistake and I regret it. I apologise again and assure that it will not happen again as I have learned a lesson. I kindly request you to unblock me and please keep an eye on my edits as long as you want. Thank you,-

I didn't get any compensation from any of these publications for Knowledge editing or writing for them till now. When Swarajya doxxed the Knowledge editor, I mailed them to take those pieces down as they were not complying with Knowledge's terms and policies; those pieces were taken down after. Hence, I always try to follow Knowledge guidelines and larger aspects of Wikimedia movement. While editing, I thought that COI disclosure was not needed because I was using talk page already for editing request but I think, I could have mentioned COI while doing editing request. In the future, I will not directly edit this page and I will add userbox of COI on my userpage regarding this.

For me, free knowledge movement is more important than my internship. Will topic ban/block be abandoned if I discontinue my internship at Swarajya? Another point I want to make is I can agree of topic ban Swarajya, OpIndia or media publications but I canât agree on whole Indian Politics because it can intersect in my any editing.
