Talk:Ronald T. Raines

Authoring editors have probable conflict of interest
Most of the current article (September, 2012) is contributed to and revised by two editors who only edit other article to highlight the contributions by R Raines. These editors are User:Bioorganic and User:Pack Man. The entire article may well be autobiographical or was written by editors with a conflict of interest. --Smokefoot (talk) 00:06, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

I have no COI and have edited this page to delete insubstantial and unsubstantiated claims.Skyegreenwood (talk) 23:51, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
 * If you have no COI, then fill out your profile. Anyway, most of the article was written by someone who obviously does have major COI hence the clear need for a tag.  It seems possible that Raines himself wrote the article.  It is interesting and worrying that so many editors have suddenly been attracted to this person's contributions and in such a corollated way - and all with the same characteristic avoidance of providing details on themselves.  --Smokefoot (talk) 06:22, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

According to my knowledge, the content of this article is accurate. According to my best judgment, the lack of edits and/or talk-page discussion is indicative of a silent consensus for the absence of a COI. Note: I do not live in Massachusetts.
