coi

This is about your coi with Boston University, as came to attention for [[:Draft:Pina Lahev]. to which you made some contributions. In declining that article as not yet notable, I wrote:

I note a coi was declared, but it was a paid coi, and it did not make ful disclosure according to our rules. There were three separate individuals involved in writing this, all from her university. This could mean 3 separate employees of the university, or an outside agency the University has hired, or several outside agencies. This needs to specified. .

The usual advice for someone who is not yet notable, is to try again, once her second book is published, and had gotten substantial reviews in third-party published independent reliable sources, not press releases, blurbs, blogs, Amazon, or Goodreads.

For coi editors, the advice is different: Boston University should stop trying to publicize their faculty authors by writing articles about them in WP. It is almost impossible for PR people at a university or publisher to write a satisfactory article. If she is really notable, someone without coi will write an article about her.

I also point out to the coi editors, that their participation in this work lends a degree of doubt about all articles on Boston University faculty, and I advise them to make sure there are coi statements added for all other articles that may have been affected. I --and other reviewers--are very likely to check them. I see they have in fact declared some other articles, and I shall now check them to see that they do not resort to the hyperbola used here, in claiming authorship of books for which the person was not the author, and including prizes from their own institution.

Sometimes I will try to fix such articles, as I started fixing that one. But if there's a sustained PR campaign, I would be much more inclined to recommend deletion of the articles, for I do not see why I or any volunteer should devote our efforts to material that someone else is being paid to write.

I shall add a formal warning. DGG ( talk ) 21:19, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

You may also wish to consider the experience of a friend of mine here, who a number of years ago decided to assign to his class the writing of bios for the other faculty in his department. When some of the bios were chanllenged and removed with a public disscussion that concluded with not notable, his colleagues, understandably enough, got quite angry. I'm a librarian myself, and I would never attempt such a project. Please at least consider the consequences of a similar occurrence. DGG ( talk ) 22:51, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
