Infibeam.com should be unblocked because it is a major Indian ecommerce portal, which was blocked few years back on account of spamming. It was a mistake by some former employees and the company would be more responsible in linking its URL only to places which are relevant and would serve the purpose for which Wikipedia works. This is a request not to block the usage of the URL because of mistakes done 2-3 years back and add it to the whitelist. The site now also has a Wikipedia Page which is an effort to inform the readers about the Indian ecommerce market.

I have read and understand why examiner.com as a whole is blocked; however, I wish to add to above article to the pages for D.C. United Women and perhaps to the D.C. United page as well.

This domain was blacklisted on Meta recently with no discussion that I can find. The site is the home of the ARWU world university rankings, one of the very most globally inlfuential rankings out there. It is widely referred from at least Canadian and American university articles and templates, and is not spam by any definition I can imagine. Since it ranks the top 500 universities worldwide, we can eventually expecy at least 500 outgoing links, 1 per article, and it will still not be spam. Franamax ( talk) 05:15, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

The edit I made basically acknowledges the fact that, despite negative impacts on life expectancy, people are living longer. An increasing number of persons are reaching 100. It is a positive improvement in achievement of life expectancy that should be included in your article. Below, in quotes, is an article that appeared in July, 2009, confirming my statement. The article is based upon Census Bureau figures and a report by the National Institute on Aging.
"Centenarians are the fastest-growing age segment: Number of 100-year-olds to hit 6 million by 2050 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER Tuesday, July 21, 2009
WASHINGTON - It's starting to get crowded in the 100-year-olds' club.
Once virtually nonexistent, the world's population of centenarians is projected to reach nearly 6 million by midcentury. That's pushing the median age toward 50 in many developed nations and challenging views of what it means to be old and middle-age.
The number of centenarians already has jumped from an estimated few thousand in 1950 to more than 340,000 worldwide today, with the highest concentrations in the U.S. and Japan, according to the latest Census Bureau figures and a report being released Monday by the National Institute on Aging."

Free Republic is a website and political message board that is usually supportive of the Republican Party (United States), but its owner has announced that the site will not support Mitt Romney, the apparent Republican nominee this year. This declaration is notable and should be included in our article about the site. I've edited our article to quote the owner's statement but I couldn't give the link -- www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2871012/posts (this is the link I'd like whitelisted for use specifically in our article about the site). Free Republic is not generally a reliable source but it's well established that an article about a website may quote that website. JamesMLane t c 08:28, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm interested in this Google custom search, which would allow all of the links on an article page to be directly searched through. It could be an asset to readers, researchers, or those attempting to verify content in articles. I recognize that adding this to live articles would require consensus, but I can't even test it out (on my talk page) with the site blacklisted. The domain was previously blocked ( http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Spam_blacklist/Archives/2007-04#Referral_Profiteering.3F) because it was being used for promotion, but this specific subpage does nothing else except create a search engine which would allow one to dig through linked references and wikilinks on a page. I think it could be a valuable addition, although as a proprietary program, might require an open-source alternative. Still, discussion can deal with that issue provided the site is not blocked. Cheers, Ocaasi t | c 18:29, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

I feel it would be helpful to whitelist the following page:
www.opus-info.org/index.php?title=Preces
While I can understand that the main web-site could be considered a propaganda site, the specific page shows a scan of a prayer which is being discussed on the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preces_(Opus_Dei)
An argument has arisen in the discussion on that page about the appropriateness of reproducing the whole prayer on wikipedia, and I feel that providing a link to an external website which displayes it could be a reasonable compromise.

The link would be placed as a reference for the Ghost Whisperer Tv series (simply Ghost Whisperer) 'cancelation' section. It would be the eighth reference, I believe. The whitelisting of this petition might be of great reference to a lot of followers of the show. It is stated in the article that there is a petition for renewing the show for a sixth season, but there is no reference attached to it, therefore making it harder for a person to prove the statement true, especially if they are working on a research project or essay on the show. Whitelisting this specific petition might be of some possitive consequence regarding the show.

In the article "Femme Fatale" I wanted to include a link to an article that I found surprisingly good and certainly as useful, or more so, than any of the web links currently included in the article. (I can say this with some authority because I am a historian of culture.) Much to my surprise, I found that I could not do it because apparently the website (in its entirety?) is blocked here.
Now, I don't know what the reasons for blacklisting Suite 101 might be, but I find it outrageous to blacklist articles by this specific author (to whose articles I have directed a few people that I am tutoring to consult them).
Here is the offending article:
helle-h.suite101.com/what-makes-a-femme-fatale-a200658
And here are three other examples of writing by the same author:
helle-h.suite101.com/mary-mother-of-jesus---her-place-in-islam-a201407
helle-h.suite101.com/wind-of-war-the-battle-of-the-frigidus-a199158
helle-h.suite101.com/femmes-fatales---maria-tarnowska-a199746
There are many other truly fine articles, by other authors, there - too many to have even the authors listed here, never mind the articles themselves. I see no "spam" on that website; there are only advertisements that nobody is forced to click on. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sehnsucherin ( talk • contribs) 16:56, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

I want to add this link to the pages concerning Euler and his mathematical constant. Together with my uncle G. Lasters, who is a mathematician and math teacher in Belgium, I made this video. It is our goal to explain the constant e for students and interested people by showing it's birth, starting with a simple equation. We believe that video can hold added value in the process of understanding math. In the same way a teacher explains something in class. This can be clearer than learning it from a book.

Requests for this site to be whitelisted have been many, and rejected because of a perception that the owners of the site are attempting the whitelist process. I have never heard of the site prior to looking for material for my focus on sailing; the listed link shows the down-side of solo transatlantic racing with difficult-to-find photos. Also, inexplicable rationale for denying the whitelisting was that there is no page with this link (which, of course, is impossible because it is blacklisted). -- John Bessa ( talk) 00:36, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

I would like to add this article as a link to the Jackie Evancho entry .

Could you please whitelist an article from ezinearticles.com as above for use as a reference for a section in
IBM Magstar MP 3570
Was looking to cite it to support an topic expansion. The subject is computer tape-based data-storage drives by IBM.. Pretty dry stuff. There's no POV issues etc, it's just boring old IT equipment.
Reviewing some history, I understand the listed site is used as self-reference by some and generally isn't a reliable source. However the article in question provides background on the author, and based on this, I think the author could be considered reliable and authoritative (even if generally the whole site isn't). The content of the article is certainly accurate and detailed enough IMO.
I have no personal interest in either the wiki topic or the blacklisted site/article. My motivation is to expand knowledge on topics I have a professional familiarity with.
There may be other sources available, but this was the most concise and relevant source I found at the time. Citing this article will simply provide factual cross-references, and while it would take some time, one could always get absolute verification by cross-checking each claim against the manufacturer's product literature. Hopefully this won't be required, given the topic is an obsolete old tape drive format :)

When editing the select pages, I did not manipulate the content/articles to fit my links nor did I remove links that were already in place, with my own. I do not see what I was doing as spam, and therefore would appreciate it if my domain is white listed.
If you see that my site is unfit to be posted and thus stays blacklisted. I would appreciate it if you white list it solely for the purpose of being off the blacklist and I would refrain from posting any more link towards my site "effects-of-alcohol.org". I request this so that my domain does NOT face any penalties from search engines. Thank you!
Thank you for considering my request. SupaH12 ( talk) 01:15, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
Hi Hu12, My apologies, I did not read any anti spam rules before editing wiki pages and I completely understand why you had to remove my edits. I would like to make a request for my domain be removed from the blacklist, with the promise of no longer editing wiki pages for my benefit. I am asking this because I would not like to see my domain suffer any penalties from search engines for being on your blacklist. SupaH12 ( talk) 05:53, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Requesting whitelist to use in User:Gildir/Craig Cooper (aquanaut)#Aquarius as second citation for Cooper's retirement in February/March 2010. (The other citation I currently have for Cooper's retirement is to a Miami Herald article which is no longer available from their website, and the link I have is to an abbreviated version of the article.) The Examiner.com article seems to be reliable; it agrees with everything else I have read online and elsewhere about the Aquarius underwater habitat. I have no connection with Examiner.com. However, given everything I've read about Examiner.com on this board and elsewhere on Wikipedia (including /Common requests), I'll certainly understand if the request is denied -- in that case, should I omit the reference, or only omit the URL (as I have done in the current draft of the article)?

Infibeam.com should be unblocked because it is a major Indian ecommerce portal, which was blocked few years back on account of spamming. It was a mistake by some former employees and the company would be more responsible in linking its URL only to places which are relevant and would serve the purpose for which Wikipedia works. This is a request not to block the usage of the URL because of mistakes done 2-3 years back and add it to the whitelist. The site now also has a Wikipedia Page which is an effort to inform the readers about the Indian ecommerce market.

This domain was blacklisted on Meta recently with no discussion that I can find. The site is the home of the ARWU world university rankings, one of the very most globally inlfuential rankings out there. It is widely referred from at least Canadian and American university articles and templates, and is not spam by any definition I can imagine. Since it ranks the top 500 universities worldwide, we can eventually expecy at least 500 outgoing links, 1 per article, and it will still not be spam. Franamax ( talk) 05:15, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

The edit I made basically acknowledges the fact that, despite negative impacts on life expectancy, people are living longer. An increasing number of persons are reaching 100. It is a positive improvement in achievement of life expectancy that should be included in your article. Below, in quotes, is an article that appeared in July, 2009, confirming my statement. The article is based upon Census Bureau figures and a report by the National Institute on Aging.
"Centenarians are the fastest-growing age segment: Number of 100-year-olds to hit 6 million by 2050 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER Tuesday, July 21, 2009
WASHINGTON - It's starting to get crowded in the 100-year-olds' club.
Once virtually nonexistent, the world's population of centenarians is projected to reach nearly 6 million by midcentury. That's pushing the median age toward 50 in many developed nations and challenging views of what it means to be old and middle-age.
The number of centenarians already has jumped from an estimated few thousand in 1950 to more than 340,000 worldwide today, with the highest concentrations in the U.S. and Japan, according to the latest Census Bureau figures and a report being released Monday by the National Institute on Aging."

Free Republic is a website and political message board that is usually supportive of the Republican Party (United States), but its owner has announced that the site will not support Mitt Romney, the apparent Republican nominee this year.

I'm interested in this Google custom search, which would allow all of the links on an article page to be directly searched through. It could be an asset to readers, researchers, or those attempting to verify content in articles. I recognize that adding this to live articles would require consensus, but I can't even test it out (on my talk page) with the site blacklisted. The domain was previously blocked ( http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Spam_blacklist/Archives/2007-04#Referral_Profiteering.3F) because it was being used for promotion, but this specific subpage does nothing else except create a search engine which would allow one to dig through linked references and wikilinks on a page. I think it could be a valuable addition, although as a proprietary program, might require an open-source alternative. Still, discussion can deal with that issue provided the site is not blocked. Cheers, Ocaasi t | c 18:29, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

I feel it would be helpful to whitelist the following page:

While I can understand that the main web-site could be considered a propaganda site, the specific page shows a scan of a prayer which is being discussed on the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preces_(Opus_Dei)
An argument has arisen in the discussion on that page about the appropriateness of reproducing the whole prayer on wikipedia, and I feel that providing a link to an external website which displayes it could be a reasonable compromise.

The link would be placed as a reference for the Ghost Whisperer Tv series (simply Ghost Whisperer) 'cancelation' section. It would be the eighth reference, I believe. The whitelisting of this petition might be of great reference to a lot of followers of the show. It is stated in the article that there is a petition for renewing the show for a sixth season, but there is no reference attached to it, therefore making it harder for a person to prove the statement true, especially if they are working on a research project or essay on the show. Whitelisting this specific petition might be of some possitive consequence regarding the show.

In the article "Femme Fatale" I wanted to include a link to an article that I found surprisingly good and certainly as useful, or more so, than any of the web links currently included in the article. (I can say this with some authority because I am a historian of culture.) Much to my surprise, I found that I could not do it because apparently the website (in its entirety?) is blocked here.
Now, I don't know what the reasons for blacklisting Suite 101 might be, but I find it outrageous to blacklist articles by this specific author (to whose articles I have directed a few people that I am tutoring to consult them).
Here is the offending article:
helle-h.suite101.com/what-makes-a-femme-fatale-a200658
And here are three other examples of writing by the same author:
helle-h.suite101.com/mary-mother-of-jesus---her-place-in-islam-a201407
helle-h.suite101.com/wind-of-war-the-battle-of-the-frigidus-a199158
helle-h.suite101.com/femmes-fatales---maria-tarnowska-a199746
There are many other truly fine articles, by other authors, there - too many to have even the authors listed here, never mind the articles themselves. I see no "spam" on that website; there are only advertisements that nobody is forced to click on.

Requests for this site to be whitelisted have been many, and rejected because of a perception that the owners of the site are attempting the whitelist process. I have never heard of the site prior to looking for material for my focus on sailing; the listed link shows the down-side of solo transatlantic racing with difficult-to-find photos. Also, inexplicable rationale for denying the whitelisting was that there is no page with this link (which, of course, is impossible because it is blacklisted). -- John Bessa ( talk) 00:36, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Was looking to cite it to support an topic expansion. The subject is computer tape-based data-storage drives by IBM.. Pretty dry stuff. There's no POV issues etc, it's just boring old IT equipment.
Reviewing some history, I understand the listed site is used as self-reference by some and generally isn't a reliable source. However the article in question provides background on the author, and based on this, I think the author could be considered reliable and authoritative (even if generally the whole site isn't). The content of the article is certainly accurate and detailed enough IMO.
I have no personal interest in either the wiki topic or the blacklisted site/article. My motivation is to expand knowledge on topics I have a professional familiarity with.
There may be other sources available, but this was the most concise and relevant source I found at the time. Citing this article will simply provide factual cross-references, and while it would take some time, one could always get absolute verification by cross-checking each claim against the manufacturer's product literature. Hopefully this won't be required, given the topic is an obsolete old tape drive format :)

It is a reliable source, as it is the creator of the band telling the story, and it was explained to me that the site is indeed a source of spam (apparently over a two-year period before it was banned), but this video is important to the history of the band. Thanks for your consideration. The evacipated ( talk) 04:26, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
I'm trying to find a better source for the "St. Francis Terrier" portion of the Pit Bull article than the Animal People story. See the section on ACC v SF/SPCA on the labeling of Pit Bulls and how the ACC allowed aggressive dogs to be adopted - which ended the program, as opposed to the now oft cited "the dogs killed cats".

The Judge William Wilson House is the only antebellum structure in the city limits of Atlanta on its original spot. This link is the only source I could find documenting the current state of the property other than a "legit" source which is from 2001. I would like to properly attribute that source and would ask this one page on the examiner.com site be whitelisted. Keizers ( talk) 13:27, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

this is a good source for TV episodes. I need it to put sources for the "Production" section in those TV episode articles. I don't see any other spam things there, but it is really useful. please put this out of the list so I could use it. I need it to put it in the article: Leggo My Meg-O.

Wiki Pages in which I was linking from: Short Term Effects of Alcohol - Long Term Effects of Alcohol - Effects_of_alcohol_on_memory - Alcohol_withdrawal_syndrome - Blood_alcohol_content - Alcohol_intoxication - Alcohol_detoxification
I am requesting whitelist status for my domain, effects-of-alcohol.org. My site is purely informational, I am not attempting to spam people, generate income from purchases, or anything else of the such. I was adding my links to various wikipedia pages solely for the visitors of those select pages to get the information that they were searching for. I posted my links only onto wiki pages that were directly related to my content. When editing the select pages, I did not manipulate the content/articles to fit my links nor did I remove links that were already in place, with my own. I do not see what I was doing as spam, and therefore would appreciate it if my domain is white listed.
If you see that my site is unfit to be posted and thus stays blacklisted. I would appreciate it if you white list it solely for the purpose of being off the blacklist and I would refrain from posting any more link towards my site "effects-of-alcohol.org". I request this so that my domain does NOT face any penalties from search engines. Thank you!
Thank you for considering my request. SupaH12 ( talk) 01:15, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
Hi Hu12, My apologies, I did not read any anti spam rules before editing wiki pages and I completely understand why you had to remove my edits. I would like to make a request for my domain be removed from the blacklist, with the promise of no longer editing wiki pages for my benefit. I am asking this because I would not like to see my domain suffer any penalties from search engines for being on your blacklist. SupaH12 ( talk) 05:53, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

I would like to add a specific article from the Letchworth Girls' Rugby website to the white list - www.letchworthgirls.blogspot.com/2010/09/team-to-beat-black-ferns.html - as I want to use it as a cite on the Jamie Burke (rugby) article. Although personal blogs are typically not allowed as links, this is an archived site now that the rugby team has moved to a real website. It exists to preserve news and information about girls' rugby. I'm specifically linking to it to validate the honours of women rugby players other than the New Zealand Black Ferns. -- Dinkfeet ( talk) 16:53, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
I want to use this link to back-up the supposed (please do notice "supposed") true story'ness of a song about the palace of Versailles.

I see. After reading your reply I started to dig deeper into the story and found a better reference. (I didn't know the common title for this urban legend/hoax.) Thanks anyway! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.83.115.88 ( talk) 23:01, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, just read it. Although the examiner article is true and correct, and I am in no way connected with it, I do not need to add an iffy source to the wiki page. Thanks for steering me to a good explanation. 190.88.35.175 ( talk) 19:40, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
There appears to be some controversy as to whether the Duggars, of 19 Kids and Counting fame are part of the quiverfull movement. This article, apparently blacklisted because it's from examiner.com (?) sheds light on that question. Rather than a complete block to citation of the article, perhaps citation with qualifying information about the reliability of the cite would better advance Wikipedia goals?

Requesting whitelist to use in User:Gildir/Craig Cooper (aquanaut)#Aquarius as second citation for Cooper's retirement in February/March 2010. (The other citation I currently have for Cooper's retirement is to a Miami Herald article which is no longer available from their website, and the link I have is to an abbreviated version of the article.) The Examiner.com article seems to be reliable; it agrees with everything else I have read online and elsewhere about the Aquarius underwater habitat. I have no connection with Examiner.com. However, given everything I've read about Examiner.com on this board and elsewhere on Wikipedia (including /Common requests), I'll certainly understand if the request is denied -- in that case, should I omit the reference, or only omit the URL (as I have done in the current draft of the article)?
