Request reason:

Hello Admin/Mod, I just received a block notice few hours ago today stating that my account has been blocked for editing on this prestigious encyclopedia indefinite and cited the reasons that I added inappropriate external link to the web-page. This is as a result of the most recent link I added to this web-page and even though the link added is verifiable and true, I now understood that it was termed inappropriate because it shouldn't have been their in the first place. It wasn't necessary to the page. I have been a law abiding member on this encyclopedia and I love and in enormous ore of this particular site and I have no intention of making it less desirable for others. I see my mistake now and I assure you that it will never happen again. I will continue to be that law abiding wiki-citizen that I have always been and will never post any inappropriate link to the site again. It has always and will continue to be a great pleasure to contribute to a wonderful encyclopedia like wikipedia. Thanks Exlink10 (talk) 3:22 am, Today (UTC−5)

Decline reason:

Your request makes this sound like it's a one time error you made. That is not true. You were adding links to "Exlinklodge" (which matches your username) for what seems to be all of your edits. This clearly violates our guidelines/policies regarding WP:SPAM and WP:COI. only (talk) 12:18, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Request reason:

Hello again, From your reply, I deduced that you didn't block me from editing because of the last link I updated which was clearly the reason I was given for being block, (This was sent to my mail: Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Mike Mbama Okiro. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it..) but you blocked me because I was updating links from mostly a particular website. I can only say that I am profoundy sorry for violating the terms and conditions of this encyclopedia regarding citation spam. I must say I didn't really go through it very well but I'm also mindful that ignorant is not an excuss when it comes to law. On this regards, I want to assure you that I didn't have in mind to violate this laws, all I was doing is to contribute my quota on this prestigious wiki page and I admit that I have erred and crave your indulgence on this one. As from today, if unblocked, I will always always and always contribute my quota anytime I have the chance to but from different sources as prescribed in your anti-spam page. And I must say, the admins and MODs are indeed doing a great job on this website because the reputation is through the roof and I will not be the one to spoil it.

As the person who reported you let me clarify one thing to you before an Administratior come. You're blocked for both actions that you mentioned not only the later. I did reported you after understanding you have systematically planted it in numerous article and that's WP:SPAMMING which is not allowed. Also, the blog exlinklodge.com, which matches you username and all its like are not allowed to be used in Wikipedia. If unblocked you have to read WP:SOURCES, WP:ADVERT, WP:! and what are Reliable sources. You'll never use that link again in any article, because I know it is not reliable source and it will not be in the offing, don't doubt me on this. In your systematic link planting to generate traffic to your blog, you added this. I know the information is quiet correct but the source is outright unreliable. In the future if you want contribute to Wikipedia and add information like that on Nigeria-related pages you should use recognized National papers such as The Nation (Nigeria), Thisday, Daily Trust, Leadership and online newspapers Sahara Reporters, Premium Times and their likes. These papers are regarded reliable because they all a)have corporate headquarters, b)editorial board c)membership of professional NPAN, and many other features which you yourself know are hundred miles different from your blog. I took time to explain to you this because you're not the only Nigerian blogger-spammer that I detected for this. So in this unblock request you must agree you'll never insert that link again (or similar blogs) in any article and doing so again will result in summary revert and longer block. –Ammarpad (talk) 05:30, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hello Thank you so much for taken your precious time to explain this to me. And like I said in my earlier request, I'm here because I love this encyclopedia and will always love to contribute to this community. I have agreed to never insert any link from this said blog/web or any of its like and further agree to take cues from the few trusted National News papers and the online news papers you suggested in your reply. Thank you once again and have a lovely day. Exlink10 (talk) 08:31, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

I'll accept this, as from the above it appears you're trying to edit in good faith. Be aware that any further attempts to add links to your own website will result in immediate re-blocking. If you haven't already, I very strongly advise you to read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and in particular this section, since from your username I assume you have a direct conflict of interest with exlinklodge.com. ‑ Iridescent 09:48, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
