Possible conflict of interest

edit

It is possible that the editor, Smm225, who created this article may have a conflict of interest as one of the researchers of the leading work cited. Because we must be careful not to reveal the identity of other editors, suggesting that possibility is as far as I am willing to go. --Bejnar (talk) 17:51, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'm almost certain User:Smm225 is an author of the Moll et al. paper (which has been accepted BTW). It is an RNA families article (see wikinews), part of a collaboration between Wikipedia, RNA Biology and Rfam. Not sure this consitutes a bona fide Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. The citation is highly relevant to the article.--Paul (talk) 18:59, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
