  • Comment: Actually, I am so sick of the bludgeoning from the Symon Sadik farm that I am going to pass on the review and it should be rejected per WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not an avenue for promotion and we have no obligation to cater to these socks. It is unfortunate that UPEs screw things up for those who may otherwise qualify for Wikipedia pages.
