I have believed for some time that [[User:Talentforfilm]] may be a COI editor in the employ of [[Kamran Qureshi]] or related company [[Evergreen Media Europe]] (article since deleted). Talentforfilm has been creating a great many articles and categories related to this operation -- some of which have since been deleted. I have recently brought 2 new articles to Afd for 17- and 23-minute videos that I believe clearly fail [[WP:NFILM]]. Now a new SPA account appears at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Power of the Sea]] to testify to the usefulness of the nominated article. There is a similarity in username and the same poor command of English -- ''despite'' the editor presenting himself as an unconnected British "researcher" interested in U.K. military history. Yes, I know it's just one edit thus far -- but any attempt to masquerade and mislead at Xfd is a red flag for me, a sign that things have gone too far. I was wondering if you could look into this, to see if this is just coincidence or not. Thanks.

I have believed for some time that User:Talentforfilm may be a COI editor in the employ of Kamran Qureshi or related company Evergreen Media Europe (article since deleted). Talentforfilm has been creating a great many articles and categories related to this operation -- some of which have since been deleted. I have recently brought 2 new articles to Afd for 17- and 23-minute videos that I believe clearly fail WP:NFILM. Now a new SPA account appears at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Power of the Sea to testify to the usefulness of the nominated article. There is a similarity in username and the same poor command of English -- despite the editor presenting himself as an unconnected British "researcher" interested in U.K. military history. Yes, I know it's just one edit thus far -- but any attempt to masquerade and mislead at Xfd is a red flag for me, a sign that things have gone too far. I was wondering if you could look into this, to see if this is just coincidence or not. Thanks. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 13:46, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
