Request reason:

This is complete non-sense, the page doesn't make any sense as is. I'm working with the author of the research being described in this section of the article at this very moment. Where is the copyright violation from? What do you want from us? Why are you abusing your power to prevent us from improving the quality of this page? Do professors Bernhofen and Brown need to email you personally that they are okay with their research being described in those terms? Did you read the section and don't you realize that it does not make sense as currently written?

Decline reason:

The license for http://microeconomicinsights.org/gains-trade-evidence-nineteenth-century-japan/ is not compatible with wikipedia (please see WP:COPYOTHERS). SQL ^{Query me!} 21:22, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. 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.

According to that website, the content is released under a Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives license, a license that's incompatible with Wikipedia: Wikipedia content must allow the creation of derivative works, and the Wikipedia article itself arguably is a derivative work. If the copyright holders mean to release the content under a less restrictive license, they're welcome to note that on the website or to notify WP:OTRS (see WP:Donating copyrighted content for details). You, however, cannot just decide to disregard others' copyright restrictions. Huon (talk) 21:25, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
