conflict of interest and original research i found this issue ironically enough while reading through the starwood arbitration where amusingly kathryn and paul are accusing another user of both conflict of interest and link spamming in a situation which is incredibly similar to this one i e using links to his site as citations needless to say i support here i think that both paul and kathryn should voluntarily cease editing this article unless and until all inappropriate links to theur site are removed it's suitable for inclusion under external links but not suuitable as a reference tags identifying the problems should be left on the article as i've been told many times removal of tags without resolution of the issue is vandalism sincerely talk
