This article - Checkin with reviewers in mind: how to speed up code reviews[^] - is largely a blog featuring the product produced by the member's company. It reads like an advert, at best a blog but is currently awaiting moderation in the articles queue.
I'm not sure what to do for best - thinking wrong section for now but thought I'd throw it out here for thoughts.

Words by Sean answering me in another message:
If it comes as a blog (there is a bug when changing type to article when staff edits a blog)... OK
If it comes as article in the first place... report. Th feed option is there, let's them use it.
So... I would go reporting the article anyways. About the user... you might give him a friendly warning and see what happens
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yeah - I reported is as the wrong type in the end. I'll go back and leave a (friendly) comment

You know that wrong type is not "nuking" report, don't you?

Yes - I decided it was a blog in the end. I tend towards giving members the benefit of the doubt on stuff (unless it is obvious spam). However the "article" is gone and the member is still here so someone must have had a word

When I deleted the article I had a word with the member. They seem very understanding and reasonable. I liked it.
Thanks,

Thanks. I'll edit again, to make it easier to the peeps (I usually group the dead ones)

Easy to see, with a URL in the topic. Not linking to prevent having the URL again.

Now the name of that golden chicken still appears in search-engines. And no, didn't report the user - assuming he will be removed once an admin sees the spam. I know, I could have gotten an extra point for it, but seems a bit redundant to do.

The best way to remove spam is to use the reporting links - that way the spam filter hamsters get to learn more so more is filtered out for moderation, plus the Admin get to put their feet up for a little while. It also means that we as a community can purge our site of spam whilst the Admin are asleep
