New, unreviewed, creation by a now-blocked spammer Macrolancer ( talk · contribs) / Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/IMZahidIqbal who is churning out biogs in what's an obvious paid editing scheme. Andy Dingley ( talk) 22:55, 8 April 2017 (UTC) reply

Hi Andy Dingley, I accepting I made some citation which is not suitable to Wikipedia. Get punished for 72 hours and learned a lot to never use such sites as the citation in Wikipedia. Will not do that again. There is no issue with this article. You can check the notability and verify references. Macrolancer ( talk) 08:22, 10 April 2017 (UTC) reply

This isn't about citations, it's about your use of multiple WP:SOCKPUPPET accounts. Andy Dingley ( talk) 08:41, 10 April 2017 (UTC) reply

Hi Andy DingleyThis is first time when I joined Wikipedia working. Macrolancer is my company name which I used to create my username here. How you have tagged me as WP:SOCKPUPPET? Macrolancer ( talk) 11:12, 10 April 2017 (UTC) reply

  • Keep and flag for a neutrality check. Conflict of interest is not a deletion rationale in and of itself — it can be supplementary evidence in support of deletion if an article also has basic notability and/or sourcing problems in the first place, but it does not force deletion of an article that does have a valid notability claim and some appropriate referencing for it. In the latter instance, we keep the page and just clean it up — and as a former member of the Punjab Assembly who passes WP:NPOL on that basis, that's the situation we have here.
