Conflict of interest template

I added the COI template to the article because essentially all article content has been added by single-purpose editors and all the content is highly promotional in both tone and content. This is certainly suggestive of undeclared paid editing or at least editing with conflict of interest. Peacock (talk) 19:19, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Cohen → Jon Cohen (physician) – Page views don't indicate a clear Primary Topic amongst these three. The base Jon Cohen should probably point to John Cohen (instead of an entirely new dab with only three entries). I'm not actually opposed to the new dab; it just seems unnecessary. -2pou (talk) 20:42, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Page view link (not sure why it never shows right in first RM entries via Twinkle). -2pou (talk) 20:43, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support, and there should be a DAB at base name or redirect to John Cohen, I have no preference there.--Ortizesp (talk) 21:59, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support the writer has 397 views, the entrepreneur has 248 compared with only 103 for the physician. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:51, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination; Ortizesp and Crouch, Swale. Likewise, support redirecting "Jon Cohen" to either the John Cohen or Jonathan Cohen disambiguation page. "Jon" is usually a short form of "Jonathan", however in the case of these three men named "Jon", there is no specific confirmation as to whether the full given name of one, two or all three of them is actually "Jonathan". —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 20:47, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
