I can't actually check how relevant the site is, as it isn't responding at present.-gadfium 01:36, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have once again added in the Remembering Link to this memorial because it is totally relevant and certainly not 'mere promotion.' The online memorial established here is true testimony to the regard her people and the wider community held this person in and is the ONLY NZ national record of its kind. It contains personal comments of a significant number of people and has historical value. I consider it far more relevant than any general news item about the event which also serves to 'promote' the publication concerned. This memorial was established free of charge and developed with a conisderable abmout of volunteer effort - unlike any general 'news' item which has been placed in a paid publication.

I've looked at your site, and it is clearly a commercial one. You charge people a fee to put up a memorial page for their loved ones. I wish you every success, but Wikipedia is not an appropriate place to publicise it.-gadfium 17:50, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There have now been at least five Wikipedia editors who have reviewed your requests to add your links, and all have agreed that it isn't a good idea. At this point, you should accept the consensus.-gadfium 18:05, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
