Shomada (talk · contribs) — Citations to Hagras, Hamada

Promotional citations in article[edit]

I'm just leaving a note here that the article's original creator and one of its early contributors was a user account, Shomada (now blocked), with an apparent WP:COI and was being used almost exclusively to promote a particular author, Hamada Hagras, by inserting unnecessary quotes or citations. I've left a template above on the same point. As a result, this article still contains a somewhat disproportionate amount of citations to this author for no real reason. At this point, I'd say it's mostly just something to keep in mind for future editors revising the article: any dubious material attributed to this author or any seemingly redundant citations to his work should likely be removed.
