http://spam.bvinewbie. com edit

  Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

You have been blocked from editing Wikipedia for continuing to add spam links. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may place {{unblock}} on your user talk page to have the block reviewed. Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia.

Request reason:

Hello there Jamie, how are you doing. I pretty much understand why you deleted my editions. All of them contained a link. I understand why you would see that as a marketing effort. Regarding a multiple acount, i asked a colleague to give it a go. Now that I have understood the guidelines and the idea of wikipedia, i believe i can do something. Instead of adding links, I will ad at least 15-20 contributions that will stay. Look, we are 5 writers writing for BVI News, Nevvbie, BVI Beacon, VI Propert Yacht and other local newspapers, so I think there is a lot to be added and expanded.

Decline reason:

Per your comment "...we are 5 writers writing for ...". Role accounts are not permitted on English Wikipedia, and therefore I must decline this request.   An optimist on the run! 14:12, 14 January 2013 (UTC)Reply


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.

Message understood, private motives should not be greater than Wiki motives.

The only way you'll be unblocked is if you agree to not link to any other sites, aLookingGlass or otherwise, that you are affiliated with. Because of the abuse despite numerous warnings, bvnewbie will remain blacklisted regardless. OhNoitsJamie Talk 05:06, 12 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
I may be misreading what you say above, but "we are 5 writers" suggests to me that you are a group or representing a group. That is not allowed, as accounts here are for individuals only. Also, do you understand 'neutral point of view'? WP:NPOV is our policy on that. See WP:RS for our policy on reliable independent sources. 'Independent' should be taken to include independence from yourself as well as from the subject in question. Peridon (talk) 14:20, 14 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

I understand there are 3 things being blocked bvi.newbie maros.tortola bvinewbie.com

Regarding bvi.newbie, i believe the user account should even be deleted maros.tortola - understand that I should not post on behalf of webs associated with me and i should not include links to it. Is it acceptable to post on page's talk page and have someone else consider inclusion? The directories for British Virgin Islands are outdated for example, I can imagine the only problem with inclusion of bvinewbie.com/bvi-directory/ is that it was done by me. domain- can you unblock the domain, at least?

No; spammers were warned to stop and kept spamming. As Wikipedia has no use for the site per WP:RS, there's no reason to unblock it. Next time, heed warnings. Wikipedia is not a marketing tool. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:35, 14 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

I see what you are saying and will not take too long. 1. I believed the reason you did not let the edits through was incorrect quoting. I found the reasons too general and did not identify that I am actually getting deleted because you find the source inadequate. 2. You might consider 2 reasons for removing the ban on bvinewbie.com. Firstly, it is a real 5 authors/ 2 editors publication http://issuu.com/alookingglass/docs/bvi-newbie-issuu-2013?mode=window Next, it is a news organisation, with a real editor and writers (look into news section).

I have no intention to edit wikipedia, but I believe it would be wrong to remove bvinewbie as a possible source for future. If you do this, please believe me I am not so stupid to try it again. Thank you for your time.
