andrewprokos.com/photos/inverted-uae-series/

Under the Wikipedia topic Negative (photography), I have indirectly referenced Andrew Prokos’s ‘inverted’ photographic series (by referencing a competition award) but I have not been able to reference it directly by the link given above. It would be helpful to use the direct link because it discusses the premise behind the photographs and the properties of negative photographic images generally. At present Wikipedia has an entry for Andrew Prokos himself but does not permit references to his personal website which seems somewhat anomalous. EcclesMan (talk) 15:59, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

no Declined. @EcclesMan: MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist/archives/March 2008#andrewprokos.com gives the background about why it was blacklisted: the site owner spammed Wikipedia with links and apparently created sockpuppets to do so. And yes, we already have whitelisted a link to his bio page for use in his biography article; that is the only link to his personal website that is necessary. The citation you added to negative (photography) already includes these photographs from Prokos. Secondary sources are always preferable to primary sources; therefore, a link to the primary source is redundant and unnecessary. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:31, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

I am trying to create the page for Mantle which is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum; it is a large project, with more than $3 billion in assets under management (https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/08/22/mantle-stakes-66m-of-ether-on-lido-as-part-of-treasury-management-strategy/) I reckon this is a notable project and it deserves a Wikipedia entry Itemirus (talk) 06:27, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

no Declined, this is an open internet forum; just user-generated material. We can't use it as a source, but the users there often quote their sources - you can likely use many of those. Sam Kuru (talk) 23:42, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

plap.xyz

The website is the official site for Plap, an online event management application, for which I'm creating a draft for. But it being blacklisted is preventing me from publishing. Hope this would make it get whitelisted.Doyin Dimeji (talk) 18:37, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

For a draft to have any chance of being accepted, you'll need multiple third-party reliable sources. Not being able to link to the company's page shouldn't prevent you from creating the draft. If the draft is accepted, whitelisting would be appropriate. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:52, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

Trying to add above link in the article reference but seems that Damain name is blacklist by Wikipedia. Pls put this site link for Whitelist inclusion. SEEZASAROJ (talk) 21:06, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

@SEEZASAROJ: no Declined. This was deemed an aggregator site run by some alumni, there must be more authorative sources available. --Dirk Beetstra T C 10:21, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

  • Why : This page is the official website for the OCaml Scientific Computing project "OWL". It has served this purpose since 2018, and it is referenced from the project's repo https://github.com/owlbarn/owl. This website includes well organized documentation and information that is vital for anyone interested in the project, but it is blocked due to the .xyz TLD.
  • Which articles: A link to this site should be provided in the Owl Scientific Computing software infobox.

  • Why: I am requesting that this URL be whitelisted because it would be useful to cite on the article listed below. Specifically, it provides information about the studio the album was recorded at, and it also describes the album's cover art, both which could useful if an editor like myself wanted to include this information and needed a secondary source to back it up.
  • Which article: Census Designated
  • Note: Northern Transmissions seems to be a fairly reliable source, although I understand there were some issues with the site around a decade ago. An editor included a list of other notable publications writers at Northern Transmissions have also written for on the Reliable sources Noticeboard.
