I have blocked Erasmus Sydney for copyright violations related to this article. From reviewing their edits and other information, it appears that they have an undisclosed conflict of interest related to this article. Nick-D (talk) 07:40, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'd just note that my edit here means that the article is out of date. However, it was in line with the standard approach to sockpuppet accounts and also seems justified given the risks around the material being affected by the editor having a potential conflict of interest given their previous declaration of this and the nature of the material they've added across accounts.

Preselection is an important stepping stone to a political career. I believe it makes sense to describe who the subject was up against and what the process was. MatthewDalhousie (talk) 12:45, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
