Question: Why were you also trying to remove the comment from another user? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 17:29, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Because, if you look at the user's contributions now, he actually got blocked himself! He's trying to falsely and abusively claim that I'm Ahmed Faris when I'm really not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.58.238.245 (talk) 17:44, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're not accused, or even mentioned, anywhere in that page. How did you find it, at all? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 17:53, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
