COI, puff[edit]

This is a puff piece, pure and simple. It was first created by Jennole03 and then speedily deleted as copyvio by DMacks, way back when. It was recreated by Nolegirl27 (note the similarity in names); subsequent editors are AMartin180 and Alison180--again note the similarity. These four accounts are SPAs and this here, plugging Yaeger, is all they've done.

I could delete this as spam right on the spot (seriously, look at the version of the article just now), but I'll just pare it down to a stub since the guy is notable by our standards. Drmies (talk) 14:54, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I blocked Alison180--her contribution history should make the reason abundantly clear. Drmies (talk) 15:10, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I removed more of the content as copyvio. I agree that the subject is notable enough for an article, but that what was here until a few hours ago was hopeless for that article. Alison180 would also fail our current paid-editing rules. Unfortunately too old for CU to find if the others match it to help close the drawer easily rather than just tracking promotional behavior.
