Autobiography?[edit]

Is this article an autobiography?--BillFlis 13:52, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, but it is over the top. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.77.10.31 (talk) 02:23, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I think it really is! Almost all of the edits are by two users, Damslerset and Cedarkey1, whose edits in other articles all seem to be adding links to websites run by this guy (virtualology.com, famousamericans.net, and his book). Also, if you look at the actual text of this page (edit it), it uses weird formatting, like it was pulled directly from a MS-Word document or another webpage or something; it's not usual wikipedia format. Funny!--BillFlis (talk) 06:52, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It has that appearance - consider also the tie-in links on other pages, which have become a nuisance. Tedickey (talk) 12:03, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nuisance? Do you mean all the articles that link to here? There must be a couple hundred. Somebody's been very busy indeed! Does that bother you? I don't see why. In fact, I think it's a hoot. You go, guy! Glory, glory, hallelujah ...--BillFlis (talk) 01:33, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
