David A. Bray
Hi, Please explain your edits to David A. Bray on the talkpage. Removing so much content looks suspicious. Curro2 (talk) 07:43, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
 * You are correct, it was a lot of content but honestly I expect to do a bit more (mostly cutting back on the sources for the intro) and think it was the right thing to do. That article was written, almost 100%, by a string of sock puppets that were found today (if you look at the history and all of the major contributors you will see them all blocked as sock puppets). After reading through the articles and many of the sources it's become clear that while he may be notable the article is just written too much like a coat rack and trying to weed through the old text (since it's almost ALL written by people who appear to have a COI or at least a very strong bias) is going to be too difficult. Because of that I've come to the conclusion that it's probably best to gut it (and possibly put it up for AfD so that more eyes other then myself/the one checkuser and the sockmaster can go on it around notability but haven't decided if that's needed) and if he's notable and re can rebuild the article from scratch. Are you ok with me undoing your revert? James of UR (talk) 08:03, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, but please repost this on the talkpage. Curro2 (talk) 08:07, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
 * ✅ on talk page, thanks :) James of UR (talk) 08:22, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
