The following Wikipedia contributor has declared a personal or professional connection to the subject of this article. Relevant policies and guidelines may include conflict of interest, autobiography, and neutral point of view.
There has been repeated removal of the autobiography, advert, and unreliable source tags. That there has been autobiographical editing is linked to an account that was using the user name Ccfishbein. That there is a conflict of interest is inherent in autobiographical editing. That this article is advertising in content can be seen in material like Fishbein has a record of voting for smaller government,[9][10] lower taxes,[11] and less interference in the day-to-day affairs of our law-abiding citizens.[12] He has championed the causes of limited government, personal responsibility and the need for fiscal accountability in government.[13] Fishbein is known for his "hands-on" approach to representation[14] and his strong constituent service.[15] - sourced to individual votes rather than some reliable third-party's assessment of his career and reputation. That it has unreliable sources can be seen in that it relies on press releases at times to state what the subject's record is. As such, I am restoring those tags; do not remove them until there has been discussion on this page and consensus is reached to do so. ---Nat Gertler (talk) 15:54, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. Especially since the most recent section added isn't very flattering to the subject, there may be an attempt to revert the article again. realchr1styn (talk) 20:50, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I see that Mr Fishbein creates this article himself. Since it has been edited since then into a neutral article, that is fine now, but I will continue watching to be sure he doesn't edit it again. realchr1styn (talk) 20:42, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@User3749: Yes, but the article has been editing extensively since his last substantial contribution (see this diff.) The only work that said editor has done on the article since then was a call for its deletion, which one might argue is a sign that any promotional intent has been defeated. The COI tag is not intended to be a permanent branding, but a call for editors to check for and address any inappropriate content. Is there any content that remains from the creator's version that you feel is of concern? --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:04, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. Sorry for the late response, but I still have concerns because some of the content is promotional still, and by the way isn't the {{autobiography}} template not intended to be a permanent branding as well but it is still tagged, and although most of the promotional content has been removed there is still some remaining.
