Authoring editors have probable conflict of interest

[edit]

Most of the current article (September, 2012) is contributed to and revised by two editors who only edit other article to highlight the contributions by R Raines. These editors are User:Bioorganic and User:Pack Man. The entire article may well be autobiographical or was written by editors with a conflict of interest. --Smokefoot (talk) 00:06, 2 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have no COI and have edited this page to delete insubstantial and unsubstantiated claims.Skyegreenwood (talk) 23:51, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you have no COI, then fill out your profile. Anyway, most of the article was written by someone who obviously does have major COI hence the clear need for a tag. It seems possible that Raines himself wrote the article. It is interesting and worrying that so many editors have suddenly been attracted to this person's contributions and in such a corollated way - and all with the same characteristic avoidance of providing details on themselves. --Smokefoot (talk) 06:22, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

According to my knowledge, the content of this article is accurate. According to my best judgment, the lack of edits and/or talk-page discussion is indicative of a silent consensus for the absence of a COI. Note: I do not live in Massachusetts.
