Bias on this page

Someone previously pointed out that this page is based entirely on sources from the ABMRF, but I also noticed that the page was created by an account with the username "@ABMRF", whose editing history is almost entirely the creation of this page. This seems almost certainly like a violation of :Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

However, the organization does appear to be notable enough to warrant a page, at least in my opinion. They're mentioned here by the NY Times and here in an article from the journal Addiction, both times with concerns about the group and the conflicts of interest inherent to a group so heavily connected to the alcohol industry funding research on whether the alcohol industry's actions are harmful.
