Request reason:

I am passionate about Christian music and use your site to gain information about artists I review for Louder Than The Music. I think it is important for people to be able to have access to the large quantity of Christian Music which is available but goes largely unknown about because it is shunned by the secular industry. At Louder Than The Music a large amount of this music is covered and people are introduced to new artists. Sometimes all it takes is for someone to pick up one cd, which will prompt them to look up the band and probably be pointed to an article on your site and we just want them to be aware that they are only at the tip of the iceburg with Christian music - for that reason I think that the Louder Than THe Music page should not be deleted. As for the links i have been posting - they are review scores for some of the biggest Christian albums released this year and 9 out of 10 times people won't be clicking the link to the Louder site but just want to see the rating it was given by an independant reviewer. Therefore I think links on any of the album pages is an improvement as it gives the reader a more rounded view of how the album was received before they consider buying it or looking into the artist more. Thank you

Decline reason:

Sorry, nobody is allowed to use Wikipedia to promote their own websites, organizations, businesses, etc. --jpgordon::==( o ) 19:43, 12 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Can I at least put the review scores up for albums to provide people with a more rounded view of how an album has been received with no links to the site?

Decline reason:

First, I may ask the people at WP:CCM if they consider Louder than the Music a notable review aggregate site. Even if they do, I don't think it would be a good idea for us to let you add even that because of the conflict of interest. — Daniel Case (talk) 17:43, 13 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I would appreciate it if you would. I'm not sure where the conflict of interest comes in as Louder is a nuetral site which reviews new Christian music. Posting the scores would just give people more information on how the album has been received by independant listeners. We aren't trying to promote the site, we are trying to help Christian music. Thank you

Decline reason:

The conflict of interest is that you are affiliated in some way with Louder than the Music. Regardless of your stated motives, that creates a conflict of interest. The main reason you have yet to be unblocked is that you have not yet demonstrated an understanding of this and related rules. That's why this is an unblock denial, rather than a simple statement.

{{unblock|Thank you, now I understand. I didn't realise I couldn't add links because I am affiliated with the site. I apologise for the misunderstanding. I won't add anymore links or references regarding Louder Than The Music.}}

{{unblock|1=I'm sorry, I didn't realise I wasn't supposed to add the links - I thought I had read the relevant information and it was ok, but I obviously missed something. Could you please unblock me?}}
