COI editing and lack of citations

edit

The article has undergone some COI editing apparently by Mark's father. The changes were most recently reverted by a bot due to linking a banned site, wordpress. The changes did not seem particularly controversial and despite not being cited I restored[1] them less the link, and with the mention of his final loss. I see that other editors (User:David.moreno72 and User:NewEnglandYankee) have been reverting the IP editor's changes so perhaps this will not be popular. The biggest problem with this article is an overall lack of citation. I don't see how the IP editor's content is any worse than what is already here. If we removed everything uncited there would be no article left, which is perhaps as it should be? Is he genuinely notable, and if so where are the citations? —DIYeditor (talk) 20:24, 27 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

I take these for good-faith edits, if not especially disciplined. I don't like the removal of citations, through. NewEnglandYankee (talk) 20:31, 27 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
