is showing up in the external links sections of just about every biography on anyone buried there (up to about 44 instances of it now). Added by one user, whose talk page I just visited with a COI template, which did not have the intended effect. I see it as good-faith spamming, already too much of it to manually revert.

Lisa Craig Gautier full of Spam Links to organizations created by a SPA User Talk:Energizerbetty
The SPA posted all these links and literally littered the article with them. This is a single purpose account designed to promote Lisa Craig Gautier and her husband and organizations they own, started or are involved with. Here is the article before some serious editing was done after I posted a speedy deletion for spam tag. A draft article about the spouse which the SPA also started is full of spam and declined for lack of notability.  It would appear that Lisa Craig Gautier is of limited notability, less than the other rejected Draft article as it is primarily about someone who started a nonprofit to collect hair clippings for oil mats. The nonprofit no longer make oil mats out of hair and is no longer collecting hair clippings. The article's subject is no more notable than the tens thousands of other non notable nonprofits out there. The SPA editor who created these spam ridden articles has never responded on talk page. 172.56.6.142 (talk) 07:51, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
