Hoomanbahreini had three rejected drafts of Shopless (founded by Hooman Bahreini, according to the article). Twenty days later, the current Shopless article was created by Shirinkhalvati. After it was tagged with A7 (with clear instructions that the article's creator should not remove the tag), Hoomanbahreini resumed activity to remove the tag. Clear violation of WP:ILLEGIT.Additional indications: DanCherek (talk) 16:12, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Shirinkhalvati has edited Hooman (1 2 3)
 * Both accounts have edited Azad Kooh

This comment is by Hooman Bahreini: All of these comments are good and well and you seem like you have unraveled a suspicious mystery... except that I have DECLARED IT PUBLICLY on my Wikipedia page that I work for Shopless... I created the first Shopless article... when it got rejected, I mentioned it to a friend... we thought the article got rejected, because I work for Shopless and I am not a neutral entity to write the article. So my friend decided to write the article...

This page is quite offensive and keep in mind that if I wanted to violate your rules, I didn't have to declare my association with the company that I wanted to write about!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoomanbahreini (talk • contribs) 02:33, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Hoomanbahreini has certainly been upfront about declaring their COI, which is better than most COI editors do. That gets them a whole bunch of AGF in my book, so I'll take their explanation of a friend at face value and close this with no action. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:00, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
