That was me, as I forgot my old username and password. Not the same anymore, I changed it a bit.

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Multiply (website). 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. These links have no place on Wikipedia. Please stop or you will be blocked. Biker Biker (talk) 09:02, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I tried to be as neutral as I can be in this matter. It may sounds negative, but what I added are facts I gathered from multiple sources as I've mentioned. Unfortunately, the only links that contains the complaints from Multiply users are that Facebook page and a twitter hash-tag of of an ex-users of Multiply that I interviewed, and all are in Bahasa Indonesia (I speak Bahasa Indonesia so I can testify that the contents of that page are as I said. If you consider that Facebook link a spam or even advertising, please check the other links which are already there; they sounds more like and advertising from Multiply, and some are even dead links. And if you cannot accept the facts I presented, please at least give a proof that they are false. Edwinthecrow (talk) 09:20, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

We don't need to prove anything false - Facebook and Twitter are not considered reliable sources, and you cannot use them as references. If you cannot find reliable, independent, third-party sources for the material you wish to add, you simply cannot add it. You also cannot use your own personal research from people you interviewed, as encyclopedias do not host original research. Please have a read of WP:V, WP:RS and WP:OR to learn about Wikipedia's policies on verification, reliable sources and original research - and then feel free to request unblock again when you understand them and are prepared to abide by them. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:43, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Fair enough. I actually put that link as a sample of how Multiply users and ex users are complaining. If that's unacceptable, please enlighten me if this one is acceptable: http://thenewmedia.com/jack-madrid-clears-the-air-on-the-multiply-com-announcement/ That one covers both sides, one from the Multiply management, and the comments from disappointed users. Please advise.

Decline reason:

Procedural decline, as this is a question in the form of an unblock request - you're welcome to ask questions, but only use this if you'd like to provide rationale for why you should be unblocked. m.o.p 05:37, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
