Your relationship with the PPP

[edit]

What relationship do you have with the PPP? The fact that you, Bonafidemd79 and DiamondInTheRug have started editing the PPP article after a long period of domancy suggests to the casual observer that there is off-wiki coordination. If you have a relationship with the PPP, you must disclose that per our Wikipedia:Conflict of interest guidelines. Hemiauchenia (talk) 02:35, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]


I am not a member of PPP. Consistent with the COI policy my edits are not about myself, family, friends, clients, employers, nor do I have a financial or other relationships with the organization. ReasonAndScience (talk) 02:46, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I do not know who Bonafidemd79 and DiamondInTheRug are. ReasonAndScience (talk) 02:48, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Physicians for Patient Protection for deletion

[edit]
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Physicians for Patient Protection is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Physicians for Patient Protection until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Quit your agenda

[edit]

I see you've logged into another account of yours now your vandal one has been banned. If you continue your disruptive editing on that article further investigation will be carried out against you and all the other accounts you use DiamondInTheRug.

As I see it, you were not part of the recent edit warring, and appear to have had been editing earlier to remove bad content as much as add valid content. In my opinion Inexpiable over-reached in accusing you of socking. David notMD (talk) 03:39, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
David notMD Can you blame me? The entire article is fishy as with all the recent editing. All these new accounts with such few edits have come out of the wood works to edit this article, that until recently was averaging less than 10 views a day. All the accounts seem to have the same agenda and each edit in the same way with edit descriptions. I would expect a new user to not even bother writing a description as to what they edited, yet somehow these accounts are doing just that and the wording sounds awfully similar. It makes no sense. And just moments after one of those accounts was permanently banned ReasonAndScience suddenly appears? Coincidence, maybe, but it sure is suspicious. Even admins have commented that something isn't right. Maybe it is not the same person but definitely some sort of off Wikipedia communication on social media of sorts. Which still violates WP:MEAT.

@Inexpiable: For what it's worth I agree with you that this is meatpuppetry. As I wrote on WP:COIN § Physicians for Patient Protection, My main theory right now on what caused this unusual event is that they have a private newsletter (or multiple such newsletters, or even mailing lists for higher ups) and they criticized Wikipedia's coverage in one of them.

My thinking is that these are physicians - active or retired - who became aware of this article and focused on it. So perhaps not socks, and not even organized meats, but more like crows mobbing an owl. (If you've never seen this, a crow or two happen upon a barred or great horned owl, and call out with alarm calls that attract other crows.) Each editor may be violating NPOV, and thus revertable on those grounds. David notMD (talk) 11:33, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
