 * Comment Does anyone actually look into the accounts? Gavin Stubbs is one of the principal officers of the company who has been trying to post an article here about said company in violation of WP:COI. Then a brand new account suddenly shows up and writes a new article about the same, totally obscure company. Totally unrelated and completely no potential for abuse there. Go ahead and close this, I'm sick of trying to stem the inflow of garbage and spam into this project. To hell with the guidelines. Night Ranger (talk) 15:22, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Proverbially declining the request. No evidence presented that this is even abuse. WilliamH (talk) 12:36, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
