Rabbijason created a page on Bruce Eric Ruben in January, which was deleted by discussion on grounds of non-notability. (Full disclosure: I tagged it for deletion after posting on their talk page with some questions. They didn't reply or get involved in the deletion discussion.) Rabbijason, I now learn, was also blocked for a week for accused sockpuppetry with the account Nyc rabbi back in 2007; a look at their edit history suggests a pattern of COI/promotional editing. On the 7th, the Ruben page was recreated by the user OaklandUProf as Bruce ruben with I believe essentially the same text. (They then claimed on the talk page that Dr. Ruben, who is certainly real, is "a highly regarded expert in the field of wound medicine who has published 1,000s of articles and travels around the world as an expert in this field of advanced superspeciality medicine.", the articles part of which at least does not seem to be true.) Looking at the pages edited by Rabbijason I think I can see a few other suspicious-looking SPAs, none of which seem to have been active since before 2013. I'm happy to name them if people want but if Checkuser data doesn't go back that far I'm happy to leave it. Blythwood (talk) 22:17, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
